I'm in a similar situation...Whats worse is when you compare the Best of Apple with the best of the PC side of things. My work Dell precision is a science workstation desktop replacement...2 hours of battery life I can understand, fuel efficiency wasn't anywhere in the top ten list of priorities. But it has ZERO sleep modes. There are 4 exposed to the OS in most cases, non are supported by the BIOS...the only thing I can reasonably do is 'hibernate with lid close.' The mac is half the price, half the weight, twice the CPU...I'm a little disappointed in Dell and sad that my office requires it use. But in the context of this thread, I really need a dose of humility and a recognition of what I have due to my geography.
