If you want something in that range there is also the FA*24mm f/2 to consider but you probably will be unable to get it new.

Shaky, I haven't really looked at the virtual machine option but the amount of drivers in Mac OS is increasing. Like you said the Intel i5 or i7 or quite good supported and the new Ati video cards as well as far as I know.

I'm free tomorrow so will go to Rotterdam and go to the school to get my photos back and will visit the shops there. On the internet I could see several shops that sell Macs and with some luck I can find a HP envy.

I've a specific question about the Screen on the Macbook and the Dell studio with and without the RGB led, I would love to have some information about colour gamut they can create?
I already have the Brightness, Black and Contrast of them.

Since the screens are very important it would be very useful to have that information.

Thank you Shaky.
My Father has a Bamboo and somehow it doesn't want to work like it should either, I think the Wacom software has problem with some other software.
I've one silly bug with mine that when I open the Kaspersky virusscanner window that I must do that with the mouse because the Tablet won't respond in that window.

I use an older Intuos 2. I use it every day and couldn't live without it. In fact, I am now physically incapable of doing even the simplest things in Photoshop with a mouse!

I would go even further and say that many of the higher functions in Photoshop cannot be properly exploited without a tablet of some kind. Once you get the hang of using a pen without looking at it, it is the most intuitive experience imaginable.
Indeed, the mouse is gathering dust over here.
It's also better for your wrists as well and it's faster when you get used to it.

Do you use the function like tilting with the pen often?
The only thing I truly like is how easy you can rotate the canvas with the Intuos 4 and was thinking of getting the wireless version for the laptop instead of a mouse.
But I need to save for that though.

Gwyn, that sounds good to me if it's possible.
If your other half does go we might be able to drink a cup off coffee instead if we go on the same day.

Our Dixons has them.

Maybe a Dixons in V&D has them?
Might try in Rotterdam, there are several Mac dealers there and I might find the HP Envy as well but Rotterdam is big so need to have time to go there.
V&D is 50 meter further away, they removed almost all electronics besides MP3 players, headphones and game consoles.

SRS also sells used equipment, might be something to keep an eye at.
They now have an *istD, KM, K10D limited, and two Samsung GX20. link

Yep.
Still need to decide which day though, but it will be in the week and no the weekends.

Why is there a mirror then?
Only for the Phase AF?

Forgot to say I went to the stores today.
Dixons here also carry Mac, or at at least they are on their site but non in the shop where I've been
No one had a HP Envy but one shop had an older model Dell Studio XPS 13 so tried that one out there.
Nice small laptop but maybe too small I think, screen looked decent there although a bit too reflective I think and the build was good but it was a small laptop so they feel sturdier by nature.
