i hope this doesnt start something.....

anyways dell vs mac id say Mac but alot will tell you tpo get the XPS.

but then again if youv never messed with a mac....uum that might be a problem.

diffrent stuff....

plus games are all pc really i mean you get some on mac...some wait for ever and others never.

matters what yuour going to do with the laptop, but i wanna say Mac ;D

depends what yor gonna be using it for.....

Macs imo are a way better system, but not as many people use them so their not compatable with as much as a PC. but they now have versions of Microshaft office for the mac

your right about the iruses, 99.9% of them are built for the PC.

Mac operating software is a lot better, its what windows is copying for Vista. and safari is a much better internet browser- its Firefox basically!!

I've always been a PC man cause thats what I grew up with.

I used MAC's for my Graphics course and it was perfect, but IMO, the PC is a more rounded machine.

pc for gaming, mac is better for design and comfort not for gaming.
