I know exactly what you're talking about. While I do plan on getting a MacBook Pro in the future, I have to deal for the moment with my work laptop. I usualy take my laptop to my night class and other's also take their laptops. One day, I was working away on Ubuntu during the class when I heard an all-too-familiar startup sound. I instantly had to look and see where it came from. Apparently one of my classmates had turned on her PowerBook G4 for use in the class. Man was I jealous! Of course, one of the guys had to come down on her a bit for using a Mac, but I got her back. Hopefully sooner than later, she and I will have a Mac startup duet going in the class with out Mac laptops.
