Windows or Mac?
I'm getting a laptop soon, before I go off to college, and I'm quite torn between PC(windows) and Mac(apple)...I've used windows all my life and quite frankly it's become annoying, bothersome, and unreliable. I've had experiences with macs and they've been pretty pleasant...but my sister says not to get one because you can't run a lot of programs on them...but if I get Windows, what's the point of having programs if they crash all the time? I don't know what to do, and I'm making a decision soon!

Windows. Everything is compatible with it. Mac can't say the same.
Although Mac looks way cooler though

Windows is easier to learn, and has better compatability, plus it's easier to find games for Windows.

If you're planing on only using it for student purposes, get a Mac, but make sure you are patient with it, it's not the kid stuff that Windows is...

that reminds me of Bill Gates Vs. General Motors
For all who drive cars or use computers: this is too good to pass up For all of us who feel only the deepest love and affection for the way computers have enhanced our lives: At a recent computer exposition (COMDEX) Bill Gates reportedly compared the computer industry with the auto industry and stated:
"If General Motors had kept up with the technology like the computer industry has, we would all be driving $25.00 cars that got 1,000 miles to the gallon!"
In response to Bill's comments, GM issued a press release stating:
"If General Motors had developed technology like Microsoft, we wouldall be driving cars with the following characteristics:
1. For no reason whatsoever, your car would crash twice a day.
2. Every time they repainted the lines in the road, you would have to buy a new car.
3. Occasionally your car would die on the freeway for no reason. You would have to pull over to the side of the road, close all of the windows, shut off the car, restart it, and reopen the windows before you could continue. For some reason, you would simply accept this.
4. Occasionally, executing a manoeuvre such as a left turn would cause your car to shut down and refuse to restart, in which case you would have to reinstall the engine.
5. Macintosh would make a car that was powered by the sun, was reliable,five times as fast and twice as easy to drive-but would run on only five percent of the roads.
6. The oil, water temperature, and alternator warning lights would all be replaced by a single "General Protection Fault" warning light.
7.The airbag system would ask "are you sure?" before deploying.
8. Occasionally, for no reason whatsoever, your car would lock you out and refuse to let you in until you simultaneously lifted the door handle, turned the key and grabbed hold of the radio antenna.
9. Every time GM introduced a new car, car buyers would have to learn to drive all over again, because none of the controls would operate in the same manner as the old car.
10. You'd have to press the "Start" button to turn the engine off.

OMFG that's hilarious
Personally I wouldn't mind getting a Mac, but I do lots of Photoshop work and it runs much better on a Mac system than Windows.

I dunno; my laptop is an Hp pavilion with windows xp and the only problem I have with it is caused by the internet. I say just get a good virus protection system and you'll be fine.

I'm liking the Mac for school stuff ,I use Apple at the moment. But for other stuff on the internet it runs better on Windows because some programs aren't programed to Mac. BTW, GCG that stuff is hilarious,thanxs for posting!

me personally i'd go for the 'ONE' that rules them all...the 'ONE' that binds us...cuz, if it 'RINGS' true then that's what you'll hear
if a fellow ships you some advice and says: there are more doors for you to open as there are 'WINDOWS' ....heed them well lest you become a sour man...
