The only major difference between Macs and PCs would be the software, most notably the operating system. When it comes to hardware there is virtually little difference at all.

I prefer Linux over all of them, but since Windows is the closest to Linux, I have to use Windows 7. They have Linux at my school, an even the old (5+ Years) ones are more user-friendly, and run all the programs I need. It doesn't have some programs that Windows runs (I don't know which exactly), but it runs what I want and need. The problem I have with Linux is the Flash program. I tried making a little math game that told you what happened today in history for my school, but with the school's Flash, I couldn't save it because of the *type* of multimedia it was. It was the same thing on all the computers. I ended up doing it on Windows Vista.


The point is, Linux is a hybrid of Windows and Apple, making it better than both, if you ask me. I wonder what some of the old '80s companies computers would look like today if they still made them. I could just imagine DOS with it's keyboard and screen combo.

Macs aren't overpriced, if you compare what you get for a $600 Mac with a $400 PC (A.K.A Piece of crap) it's not even close.

I just looked at Apples store, no Mac can be bought for $600. The cheapest was $699 and it was junk. And my $1100 PC is way better than the $1999 Mac.

Dell is crap I had to use a $1500 one for like 2 years, it crashed continually for the 2 years until we finally got a $500 Mac, best choice ever. It's 3 years old and still runs great, and it doesn't take ten years to load a page on internet explorer like the Dell.

I have never spent $1500 on a computer. I might after I get into programming more though. And I have a custom built PC from the early 1990's that still works, runs Windows 95 and has no problems. I also have a Dell from 2001 that, while it is suffering from an overfull harddrive, works great. It wasn't even that expensive, probably around $500. And my current PC that I use a lot is a $1100 Dell, with a core i7-860, Nvidia GTS240, 8 GB of RAM, and a 1 TB HDD. It works perfectly, though its only half a year old.

You could have bought that from other companies for less.


Not at the time I bought it, I tried to find parts/equal computers at the time. It was impossible because the core i7 was still new, and it was a special deal Dell had with Best Buy, it was actually worth(if you built it on the Dell website) around $1700. If I bought it now I might be able to beat 1100, but it would be hard.
