Delta Pilots: PC or Mac?
Out of curiosity, what platform do you as a Delta pilot use for your computing needs? (i.e. If you're a Mac user put Mac even if you have to go out of your way to find a PC to run your Delta CQ discs).

$350 Toshiba from Best Buy. Had it for 2 years, fantastic machine. Beat the snot out of it. Cheap, works great. Paid $9.95 and got the entire MS Office professional suite to boot.
Wife has an Apple work computer. I have no idea how it works and where the websites I opened went off too or where a file went or how to find a file or shrink the window or exactly how you open a second screen. But for $2,000 I guess it's okay.

Think of a Mac like a 757, it just works. Maddog, like Windows, not so much.

As mentioned on another thread all Delta training should now be Mac compatible including 1st quarter training. In the future training is expected to be on thumb drives to make it netbook compatible also.

I have 4 year old second generation macbook, it has never crashed, frozen up, or destroyed any of my files.
Runs fast, only slows down when I boot up on the windows partition.
Battery still lasts for over 3 1/2 hours.
Great machine, will definitely buy another in 2 or 3 more years if this one ever wears out.

I bought a refurbished MacBook Pro with our DL discount about a year and a half ago. LOVE IT. Bought my wife one exactly like it this fall, she loves it. Now if Verizon had just got the i-phone six months earlier, I'd be all set (not that I don't like my Droid, but all Apple would be nice).
We have never had any issues with the MacBooks.
