One nice thing about having a MacBook Pro, or any Intel-based Mac computer for that matter, is the ability to run multiple operating systems. Using the amazingly wonderful Parallels virtualization software I currently run Windows XP, Windows Vista, and Ubuntu-flavored Linux (all at the same time).
Last night I loaded the latest Ubuntu release and was up and surfing the web within 10 minutes with the Firefox browser within Ubuntu. Email, image editing with GIMP, you can do it all right there.
Then I came across a hilarious cartoon on xkcd.com, and had to link to it here. Hilarious!
