I will be doing some work on photoshop, but its mainly for business applications like word and excel. have narrowed it down to 2 laptops. The HP TouchSmart tm2t or the Apple MacBook (or Pro). Please advise...... thanks
Answer
The HP computer is out of the comparison now.. Its between iPad, MacBook or MB Pro.
I have a MBA. Its awesome and I have been a apple fan for two years.. I own a computer business and didnt repair them because I didnt like them and now I own and run my business with them. It really depends what you will be doing on the computer to say which device is best for you.
iPad;
If you will be surfing the web, checking email, playing with apps, using iwork for your business, using iwork.com to share with Microsoft Office computers. Photoshop.. If your not doing a lot of advanced editing brushes is great on the iPad and its cheaper then a mac version of photoshop. there many apps to replace photoshop on the iPad.
MacBook if your not going to be running a lot of apps at the same time. MacBook Pro if you are.
Also if you dont like the design of the MacBook then get the pro. I hate the design. Johnny has always said a computer can be sexy..!! which the MB isnt @ ALL!
So I recommend iPad WiFi 16GB if your not going to have a lot of documents, photos, to edit if you pick the iPad. 32GB if you are.
I also recommend http://clamcase.com, MobileMe, and AppleCare. Contact apple to learn more about those last two products.

Between vista and window 8 I've about had it! Any tips or advice before I make the switch? Is surfing the net the same?
EDIT: I have Win 7 on a laptop, and it is fine, but 7 won't have support in the near future. I'm basically sick of changing every few years. XP was fine.

DeMoNsLaYeR575 is amazingly... wrong. It takes a six-year old about an hour to learn how to use Mac OS. First the PC geeks criticize Mac OS for being too simple. Now a PC geek says it is too hard. It can't be both. What is this thousands it will cost? You get video editing, video playing, photo cataloging, audio-video cataloging/playing apps with it for free. Even MS Office is available for Mac for US$130, so what's this thousands?
Surfing the web is no different from Windows, except you close a window at the top left instead of right. That takes about five minutes to get used to. Apps do not quit when you close all their documents, because the document window doesn't hold the toolbar. The top of the screen has a universal toolbar that changes instantly for the selected app / document. I can't stand it when Windows quits my apps for me, just because I closed the last document. I want the app running to quickly open a new document later. When I'm ready to quit, I'll quit (command Q or File > Quit).
I started with Windows, and was told by my Windows-programmer roommate to try Mac since I am a photographer. I cannot use Windows now without feeling annoyed. Yes, 7 is the best Windows ever, but I still have no use for a system that you stop by clicking Start. Bear in mind that I do not play with toys or games, so everything I use does something useful, and for that, I am happy with Mac OS. Even NASA uses Macs, so it is no slouch for scientific work.
TECHNICAL DETAILS:
Mac OS is UNIX-based. That's the top of the line in security, flexibility, and power. Linux is a near-copy of UNIX and is similar in some ways to Mac OS, but has far fewer apps available. Mac OS has no registry, a terribly annoying database that gets fouled up often with Windows. No app / virus can attach to the files of Mac OS unless you type your administrator password. Some new Mac users get annoyed that they have to type their password to install stuff, but that's what makes it secure. A virus can't type your password.
Can't you simply walk into an Apple store and try one for 15 minutes? They won't kick you out.
