Small, Medium, and Large. . .
can describe the current Laptop's in my life. A few months ago I bought a MacBook to replace the ailing Tina ThinkPad I've had for 4 years, and now I've also been able to get a MacBook Pro for work. Yes, the new model with 512MB dedicated video memory, and MultiTouch. Glorious. I've been setting up Virtual Machines so that I can still do my Windows development, and I decided on a theme to help name them...Battlestar Galactica Characters. I have Adama, Apollo, Gaeta, Helo, Starbuck, Tigh, Number Six, Roslin, Batlar, Cain, Boomer, and Dualla. All with different software configurations so that I can prevent having to run Visual Studio 6, 2003, 2005, 2008, and the XNA IDEs all on one machine. And I can have access to Office 2003 and Office 2007 simultaneously now.
I've taken the gateway and turned it into a VM that I run on the MBP now. So if I need access to something I used to have on the gateway, I just fire it up on the MBP and away I go. (In other words, I don't like backing up my SQL Server settings, now I just run it in a VM)
