because apple products dont need justification - they're perfectly fine because of their hype, warranted or not, the middle age people will buy it because its hip, if you buy a windows pc it means you're smart

i think the biggest difference is what you use the pcs for, there's obviously more shit designed to hurt windows computers, but you end up limited in apple computers IMO, and in the end, you ewnd up running virtual windows clients anyway lol

e/ idk, there's high-end laptop builds, but mac is really good if you plan on using it for formating etc



I'd be using it for work, school work, movies, video editing, stuff like that. I just want a computer that will last like my desktop did, I bought it in 2008 for 1500 bucks and it's just started to die in the past year.

It's an investment so I dont mind spending a decent amount as long as it lasts 5+ years.

Is there any advantages to buying one over the 700 $ windows?

The one thing I've heard about Mac's is even after 5 years they'll run like the day you bought it. Not to mention they seem to built with much higher quality material than the plastic laptops.


just don't buy acer, hp etc and not the cheapest

Security guards (not counting airport security) are terrible at patting you down. Don't check your back waistline, don't check your boats. Great you figured out I have nothing in my side pockets, too bad you will never find what I might be hiding in my waist or my boot.

I had an Acer that used to overheat after a while, bought Asus after that and haven't switched to anything else.

I have a couple friends that actually have very good track records with toshiba laptops for some reason too

if you want quality you need to pay more and maybe buy a business laptop. a good lenovo or asus should also last

i've heard really good things about Asus.

I mean I'd be okay with spending the 1400 on a macbook, but if I could get a windows for less like 700 bucks just matches up to it , then I'd be much happier.
