tips and trix:
find a physical trashcan and dump your mac in it. then permanently delete it on Wednesdays when the garbage man comes. then go pay 1/3 - 1/5 of what you paid on a dell with win xp on it or anything but vista and enjoy.

I had a dell, it sucked! I paid a $100 less than I paid for my mac. Dell customer service is way better than Apple but the i have to say the only thing i have noticed that is a downside for mac is the downloads.

different for me. dells are pretty tough for me. i dropped it off out dining table height and it worked perfectly fine. maybe yours was different. i have a dell running xp 1gb ram 100 hd (i think) and runs pretty good amount of games. after upgrades from the original its about $1000-$1100 which is about 1/3 or 1/2 of most macs

| I had a dell, sorry but i didn't like it. It was slow and had problems. I had to get a bunch of anti-virus stuff and pop-up blockers to protect it. Although, it is cheap. You can get a dell for about 700+. I have a mac, the back-up is great, it has a program that you can have windows and mac on the same computer, you can download almost any programs that PC has just get it for the mac, and you don't need any anti-virus stuff because it already has it. Furthermore, it is much faster than a PC, and now all the new macs have even more faster software. The cheapest one is the macbook and its about 1050 there is alos the macbook air (which is really thin) and the macbook pro (which is pretty expensive but an awesome laptop)

Mac looks quite good, but the only problem is mac isn't windows and you got a lot issues downloading certain stuff and playing games.
I got a iPod, great tool, but once my pc broke down had to reinstall it and couldn't ge tmy songs back, bye bye 500 songs... while with mp3 players of other brands don't have that problem.
Good quality but shitty system
