probably because you dont watch copious amounts of porn like the rest of the 13-14 year olds your age.
Im not 13 or 14 and i dont search porn in google and click everylink i get, ive had this pc for 3 years and only ever gotten 1 virus, and it got OWNED by Avira.
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.
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.
:/ sorry that happened, my first and second computer (The one im typing on right now) are both Dells, never had anyproblems with it though...yet. Its just what i could afford, alot of bang for the buck imo
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.
