I went with a Dell (yea I know.....) XPS15Z which is a ultra thin 15" unit (almost the exact same dimensions as a MacBook Pro). Pretty decent specs and in home repair warranty.

-- Windows 7 Home Premium

-- Processor: Intel Core i7-2620M processor (2.70 GHz with Turbo Boost 2.0 up to 3.40 GHz)

-- 15.6 inch FHD (1080P) WLED Display

-- 750 GB SATA Hard Drive (7200RPM)

-- 6 GB DDR3 SDRAM 1333MHz (2 DIMMs)

-- NVIDIA GeForce GT525M 2GB graphics with Optimus


All of this for a touch over a grand from the Dell outlet. It's probably 10X the computer I need, but I need one fast and need to be done with all this. If it stays together I'll be very happy, if not I'll never buy another Dell.
You would have been fine with the Mac but that Dell looks like a nice machine.

Enjoy it.
