As a fellow owner of a black Core 2 Duo MacBook, the "black tax" is
less so since it now comes with a
120GB hard drive than a 80GB.  It doesn't offset the price difference,
but at least it isn't just for Krylon's finest matte finish...

I've heard Parallels is good, but I boot directly into Linux.  I don't
play with Linux too much on it since the wireless card isn't supported
(or has that changes in the past two months?).  Might I suggest
MacPorts as an OSS solution?  http://www.macports.org/
