You may want to check out this thread in the photo.net forum for some reasons that ColorSync make a mac worthwhile.
I would stick with a desktop system given the choice, but leaving the Mac platform is out of the question for me; ColorSync simply saves me too much money (by virtue of making fewer fine-tuning prints) when used properly.
Anyone who tells you the mobile Pentiums at any speed are faster than a 500MHz G3 hasn't actually used both machines. The mobile pentium (ii, iii, whatever version) is a crippled and hobbled dog of a processor, barely fit for running the latest version of Word. Seriously - I've tried it - on a machine with 128MB of RAM! Just think what it would be like in Photoshop.
