Oh as for durability? I can only compare to the Studio XPS, which had a glossy plastic finish and the body was made of plastic. Macbook is made of an aluminum shell, feels very solid with no flex when you grab it and lift it with one hand. The annoying thing with the dell, is it was a fingerprint magnet, and it creaked a little when picked up with one hand(while open).

My previous Dell's were solid though, could take a beating like the IBM thinkpads. But just the Studio XPS, was designed to be pretty.

hope that helps.
