Its been an interesting mix of stress and feelings of achievement lol. I learned fast that being too much of a nice guy will kill you in this business when the first few 'big' clients I got really milked me for everything I was worth in terms of work for their money adding in more and more in the original price. I have found allot of good advice here already and a much better community then other forums like UKBF and DigitalPoint.

In my opinion Mac is the best option although I personally would go down the iMac route, the screens are much larger and lets be honest for design a laptop is never the best option. I use my iPad for mobile use on the train, at shows and to demo to clients etc and even get some simple xhtml coding done on it, everything else I do at home anyway so no real need to compromise. BTW not an apple fanboy, I used to buy anything else to avoid being an apple sheep but after using the iPhone, iMac and now iPad I can see that they are better for most applications in this industry. My windows laptop and notebooks barely ever get turned on anymore lol
