Need a new laptop - Apple or PC?

[indianprincess]

When I had to borrow someone's mac when my PC completely crashed on me several years ago, I had to surrender. I had no idea life could run so smoothly. I've had my mac for more than 4 years now, and only now am I looking to replace. Never crashed, only froze maybe 5 times.

4 years ago (when you got your mac) a PC that died was probably 2 or 3 years old at min was right in the middle of XP getting raped every other month by some virus or the other. OSX is a nice system it's Unix (BSD) roots gives it stellar stability but Win7 is impressive for a Microsoft OS. My work laptop is about 5 months old running win 7 professional and no crashes or BSoD's in that time.

Think of it when was the last time Keith did " Ah fuck-a you.... " to the windows login sound. Win 7 is good stuff

I have a MacBook and PC desktop(running windows 7).If I could choose I would go far Mac,simply because its more logical with its menu's etc.Another thing I really like is the battery life of my macbook(7 hours),which means I don't have to carry my charger in my backpack when I'm at college. I also really like the general way Mac OS X works,not a single program has given errors or froze on my,and I already own my mac since december.

I had a PowerbookG4 back in high school. After that I went back to Windows. Last year I built a gaming desktop and bought a netbook to take onto campus. This setup has worked great for me. If you don't need much computing power or graphics look into netbooks. You should be able to get a decent one for $300-400. If you want a desktop replacement computer and don't mind the price tag the MacBook pro is really nice.
