New Computer thoughts

So my computer is old and beginning to die. Since a small Apple laptop did well last time, I'm thinking about getting a similar machine. There's no more 12" lappies (sadly), so I'm thinking about getting the 13" MacBook w/ 2.4 GHz processor and extra RAM. But I'm flexible. Does anyone else have any suggestions / concerns / things I should know about? I'd be very obliged if you'd share.

The issue with the warranty is that it's pretty much invalid if you ever drop it at all- they've refused me service in the past because they knew it had dents on it, and thus any internal damage was my fault.

I'm not buying another Apple laptop- I've used two, and I love the OS, but the extra cost is not worth it for me when I can just use Linux these days.
