I feel like Skinny is this guy in this thread..


Ok, i understand that some of you do media production for a living, and some apps on mac are just better than windows. And some of you just want to help your parents fix their too-much-money problem.

But if you're not in one of those camps, you'd have to be insane or stupid to think that a mac 'blows windows out of the water'. I just bought a 15" laptop, it was $1250, faster than any mac under $2200, with a faster video card than ANY MACBOOK, with double the RAM of any MBP.

So if you like mac, that's fine. Just admit that you're paying extra for the look, or the name, not the specs.

Before I get flamed too badly, I have an MBP that i bought for iphone development, and to see what everyone was so excited about. NEVER AGAIN. The biggest mistake I've ever made for a technology purchase.
