A mac is just a simple man's computer. If you can't deal with learning how to use a PC, get a Mac and stay computer illiterate forever.

Get more for your money and buy an Asus off newegg.

You mean "computer illiterate" as in not knowing how to fend off a virus or not knowing how to rebuild your dead computer.

No, he means computer illiterate, as in not knowing how to "right click."

In essence, macs are not just simple, they're stupid. If you can't figure out windows XP or vista, you probably should buy a mac; even though they are virtually the same. If you think that by using a mac you're sticking it to the man? guess what, you're just paying a different man. If you think by using a mac you're cutting edge, technology wise? Nope, but you are cutting edge marketing wise. If you think that buying a mac says something about your life, it probably does.

PS - toshibas are also good.

Ya,,, no. i know perfectly well how to use PC's, work with them all the time in my job and used to own them at home until my dad gave me his old G4 a few years ago. thing worked like a champ for like i dont know 7 years? just bought a new mac and still loving it! keep talkin shtuf!

Cheapest option is do a special order from the website. Get the best video card and CPU. Everything else can be upgraded at dirt cheap prices. (i.e. 4GB memory upgrade for $159 from Fry's). Or get an Mac. (Just so you all know I hate Apple but if you're going to spend more than $1200 get the best that's out there)

I don't remember the last time my PC/laptop crashed. Also, it is compatible with every program out there and I am used to all of the features. I have not had any viruses or any of that other stuff.

Mac users have this "elitist" feeling behind them for some reason and I commend apple's marketing geniuses for that because everyone who has a mac tries to convert other people into buying macs. Kinda like Jehova's witnesses. :p

I worked IT for a huge company in Orange County. We had one Mac PC in the entire division. It was against company policy to have anything other than a standard HP desktop but he had enough pull to get his Mac.

He was without a doubt one of the dumbest f***s in the company. How he got to where he was is an utter mystery to everyone. But hey, he had a shiney new Mac so what did he care? I swear it was like giving a cat a ball of yarn.
