i have had 3 different laptops, one i dropped and the other i dropped something on it. spent less than 500 on both, and they kicked ass.

now i have an HP and it does the job. why would you want something that A. cost more and B. does the same thing as anything else.

if you really wanna be different get the boot disk for Ubuntu or Fedora and see how you like it. best of all, its FREE. and you dont have to worry about spyware or virus protection.

Yes you can run windows on a mac, and tests show that the mac runs it faster than a PC.

My question is what do you guys use your computer for? I produce music and edit pictures and videos on my Mac. Windows just simply doesn't have the hardware that suits what i need. Mac is the only way to go for these things.

porno on Internet Explorer

normal stuff on Mozilla

Photoshop works just fine for me on my PC

[Guest]

High-end Gaming, Business Software, CAD, minor video editing, etc.. I do on the PC. If I were doing more video editing/audio recording and or mixing, I'd look into a Mac more. Since I do none of these things regularly, I'll take the PC every time.

$2700 would buy a lot of car parts...my $600 compaq (=hp) has been banged around in my backpack for 3 years with no problems. Oh and my Avast has done a great job of protecting it. I'm not a hater, I just don't like unnecessarily spending $.

Apple fanbois were trolling the entire computer world back before half of you were born. I don't think there's any new ground to cover here

Oh, here's 1 thing PC users can do that Mac users cant:

The new Itunes is awesome. Apple tv is badass. Oh, and the Ipod touch is probably the coolest thing I own.
