I've never even touched an Apple laptop, or however they're branding them. They cost like solid gold here so few people have them. But I hear they're excellent, design wise and quality-wise. Hoever, every computer comes down to what's inside it and when I look at Apple....I see the same thing that can be found in every other manufacturer. You can even install the so highly regarded OSX on most computers now. So I don't understand the price really.

And that's why Apple sucks. :p

They're overpriced!!!!!!! I know how to work both systems because lots of my friends have Apple and I'll still stick with PC.

Apple's designs are pretty cool and the OS isn't bad but their products aren't for me. Most of my friends who own Apples are designers/lawyers/etc. and my engineer friends still use PC... I can't imagine trying to use Excel with a one-buttoned mouse:D

And I can't stand the argument some Apple users have that "they don't crash" and "they don't get any virus". I've seen a handful of virus infected Macs and been there when they crashed!!! So why pay $1500 more when you're getting the same thing you get with a PC

I can understand that, like I said in my earlier post, it all comes down to your luck with the product. What I don't understand is their insistence of distancing themselves from the word PC. It's the same freaking thing for crying out loud. Just with one mouse button. :p

i have an hp pavilion for almost a year now with no troubles at all. the one i got is in the price range u stated asif. might be worth looking at too. acer i've been told is pretty good too. toshiba remains one of the top too but they were slightly higher than hp when i got mine.

That's their image. "We are different." Just like Barca.
