Mac's are shit

i have a dell inspiron 1525. you can probably get better than that, but i've had mine for almost a year now and i'm very happy with it. it's fast, it has a lot of disk space and i haven't had to futz with it at all since i got it. oh, and it's pretty. that's all that really matters to me.

Futz....is that a technical term?

There's even a new dinky Vaio for 'the ladies' that's just come out that will fit in your handbag.

The only other ones I would even remotely consider are Sonys and even then with hesitation. If you get a PC/Microsoft laptop, get as much RAM in it as you can because Vista will consume 500-600 mbs of it--that's twice the amount OS-X needs, and with anti-virus software, expect the load to increase.
Yeah, get a mac.

How cute is that?

What's funny is, the software that comes with a Mac is worth more that the computer itself. I don't understand the P.C. success. The illusion is being cheaper is just an illusion.

(AND before anyone says it, I can't afford a mac )

The only mac I've ever owned the hard drive crashed twice. TWICE. The second time I didn't replace it (as it was almost the same cost as buying a whole new computer) and I've never gone back.

I own both PCs and macs. I've liked some of my PCs, but I love my mac.
I always find the biggest criticisms of macs come from folks who don't
currently own a mac.

Or people that want to use them in a business environment and want apps to work without fannying around

Pcs are prone to the same hardware issues--this is nothing unusual.
Plus you have to put up with a clumsy OS when you're on a PC.
Unless you're into geeking out on Lynix.
