Ha! I didn't even see Jasmine's comment. Well, she is the one who got me reading the Post, so that makes sense.
So it sounds like you're actually in a pretty good position. Now is definitely NOT a good time to buy a new laptop. Apple hasn't worked out the kinks in its new MacBooks (I agree about some of the issues mentioned in the article; that's not cool), and obviously, Vista is on the way. Hold out until Vista is mainstream, if you can.
Teaching English abroad? That sounds cool! Where might you do it? I have a bunch of friends who've done JET, but of course, there are zillions. Depending on where you're going, it might be cheaper (much cheaper) to wait and buy a laptop when you get to wherever you're going. But I'm sure you know that.
Also, you confused the hell out of me by posting under this name. I was like, "who the hell is this person?" And then I figured it out.
