Autocad, Activesync for pda's (missing link won't sync email and the iphone doesn't have a decent handwritten notes app like phatnotes) nasty sharp edge on front of all keyboards on laptops, flaky bluetooth due to poorly routed cable. That's why I took mine back.
When I was young and poor we used to blow up cars for the insurance money. We emptied a gallon in the passenger compartment, threw in a firelighter and ran. The 1st explosion when the petrol vapor in the car went off blew out the windows. When the fire reached the fuel tank the explosion would be groundshaking.
If only more coders and software architects would understand this basic tenet, for some of us the machine is a tool, not the artwork/creation/project itself. This is also the same reason people switch back to XP from Vista etc
I tried a Macbook last year, it lasted 2 weeks. The bluetooth was awful and the fact that mac cant (easily) read and write to NTFS nor Windows to the Mac file system made Bootcamp irrelevent and "Parallels" haha don't make me laugh !
Sorry but the Windows 7 beta builds that I have used have been very nice, and I am someone who downgraded from Vista twice. I now use 7 fulltime on a system which triple boots XP and Vista. I never ever boot vista and the Ubuntu partition got wiped when it stopped mounting my NTFS partitions for some reason and the solution involved typing some arcane prayer to baphomet in hex.
Windows ME ran for 6 years for me without ever needing a reinstall and still remaining snappy. Vista SP1 however lasted 2 months before my patience ran out and I relented and bought an OEM XP disk. Windows 7 is pretty yummy to be honest although my driver cache did get corrupted and I never found out how to fix it (reinstalled in the end).
Dreamweaver templates with Contribute here too. Not too worried about spaghetti either when the cubic metre of Bolognese Java and Flash kinda make it insignificant, especially on Broadband connections.

How about design a site structure and layout in Dreamweaver and then manage content with Adobe Contribute. Works for me.

Not completely air pollution free by using exclusively nuclear power, as we discovered once in Europe they occasionally belch out some death.
