Cheapest 1.8GHz dual-core laptop I can find.
[EDIT: Okay, I've found a cheaper one. Much lower feature set (Integrated graphics, WTF?) , but cheaper.]

 

[digitalsm]

Its not all that pricey. Its pretty inline with other dual core notebooks that weigh similarly. Bottom line its the lightest weight 15.4 dual core notebook, by about half a pound.

I'll give 3 month before a hack program is widely available to make all Intel machines run Mac OS. I know someone has done it, it's just not widely available.

The OS was hacked a few months ago. I'd like to replace windows with OSX. I have an AMD chip, but it is x86 so should work =P

If it doesn't, I'm getting an iMac 20" when I have the funds. Maybe will have to wait for next gen =/
