Good job J03, you've made that Apple fanboy scurry into his corner with his tail between his legs.

Ok, 1. what I meant by the program thing is that all the programs that were originally made for the PC and now are on Mac are only those high end rich companies like Adobe and Sony and 2. **** viruses, maybe if you weren't a dumbass and go download everything on the internet you see you wouldn't have to deal with them... And people don't write viruses for the mac because its just a waste of time... There are not many people with macs that go download stuff off the internet when they barely know what it is.
Can we stop talking about this mac thing? You can't convince me to get a mac it just wont' happen... We all know PC's are better for gamers (like me) and thats what I want. A PC! Not a Mac! Ok, if you prefer Apple computers over PC's then just leave because you are not welcome!
That CPU is NOT faster-- I'm going off of the http://store.apple.com/us/configure/MC7 ... jEyOTY4OTQ.
What's the battery life like? 7 hours?
Take a look at the CPU/GPU of the one I mentioned above-- it's way better than that one that you posted.

Don't use laptop for playing games. It will better if you go with destop. There are lot of good branded company destop available in the market. I will recommend Apple, It's look and use of computer very nice than others.
And you pay extra for it only because it's "apple".
So true, so true. "Apples" cost 's more than a PC (Linux is best).

Macs are good for media editing, they run all 3 of the major video editing softwares (AVID, Adobe, FCP). Macs run these softwares pretty smoothly as well. For gaming, yes, stick to a pc, specifically a desktop.

Why would you get a MAC anyways? Too complicated for me.
I completely disagree. UNIX is so easy to understand. I have used Mac and pc. If more programs were cross platform and OS X could run on custom built pc's, that would be the best.

Adobe always been kinda cross platform and most Sony software is pc only.
Proof 1: I have adobe photoshop elements 3 on my Mac 10.4.11
Proof 2: I can't buy Sony Vegas pro for Mac

ZY is right, and some of what Jordan has been spouting is outright ********.
Originally made for the PC? Like what?? Hell, it doesn't matter what platform it was made for 5-10 years ago-- Macs can run quite a few "pro" tools (AKA: Final Cut Studio, Adobe's apps, Maya, etc). In fact, designers often use Macs because the whole experience is way better with some apps. There are a LOT of apps for the Mac OS platform, I have no idea why this is such a big factor for you (unless you are talking about games, which then you have Boot Camp, Parallels, Mono, WINE and the Source Engine-- which between those you can run 99% of all PC games on your computer).
Virus-wise, if you call me a dumbass for having a computer that has almost no viruses in the wild, and has some of the best security and power in the field, then YOU are the dumbass. The Unix kernel is very powerful and secure, and the reason most viruses are for M$ machines is because they have VERY bad security. Don't believe me?

Now, I am posting cross-referanced sources with relatively good spelling and grammar. YOU, on the other hand, are posting ******** lies for the most part, with such horrible spelling/grammar that I can't even understand most of your points.

Oh my god... shut up you stupid Apple fanboy. I like apple AND windows, but windows is way cheaper. i have a decent gaming computer that i had built for me for like $400, and its probably faster than the mac laptops. and, with apple, you are constricted to 'Apple uses Apple uses Apple' crap, and so you'd have to saw open your fancy 'unibody' aluminum casing and find it out from there. If i wanted like nine terabytes of memory/storage and RAM, i could do that on windows. Mac, they'd just say "oh, thats silly, buy our NEW computer! its the macbook EPIC pro! its a bit slower but it has the most BEAUTIFUL AND MAGICAL EXPERIENCE with INTUITIVE software, and a display that you will love." I still enjoy my iPod and my dad loves his iPhone, but seriously. and about the programs that let you play PC games on a MAC, you shouldn't HAVE to get all those programs that avoid the disabilitating features of the mac to play the PC games. .-.

Did we hurt your feelings? Apparently being a mac fanboy is srs bsns, and do you REALLY, REALLY spend ALL that time to prove somebody wrong? I bet if there was like, a robot contest between Apple and Microsoft, Microsoft would completely win. the apple one would be white and smooth and no buttons and everything fancy, but it would sit there and do things that MAKE it look cool. then microsoft would silently bring out this ugly but unbelievably powerful thing that would just kill the other, and they wouldn't use words like intuitive or beautiful or amazing or "it just works." <-- that is expected of EVERY product. (very random example with the robots, just saying, thats how it works. Windows is awesome, Apple is pretty.)
Yea, give it up mr.Apple. Macs are completely overpriced and apple knows it. That's why they don't sell osx without making you buy their shitty computers, because then they can charge a $500 markup for the OS. according to their tos, IT IS ILLEGAL TO INSTALL OSX ON A COMPUTER THEY DID NOT MAKE. as for wine, only a mac user would consider a program barely out of beta built to simulate features on a better os which then had to be ported from linux over to mac, an acceptable way to run programs.
Why is it that you always hear the term "Mac fanboy" thrown around when people who like windows are much more obsessive over how bad Apple is? Do you not realize that by saying all this **** you are basically circle-jerking over a computer? And with Mac's, you are paying for a quality computer, with an awesome OS, a lot better than windows in my opinion. Add to that the fact that Apple is more successful then Microsoft (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_Inc., and you have no legs to stand on.

This man has a VERY good point.
If I want to spend more for a better computer, then I get the benefits. I just get annoyed when people constantly outright lie about stuff like this.

The only reason why windows has the biggest amount of viruses is simply it has a ridiculously high user-base worldwide, and is the primary focus of criminals just for the sheer number of users. Your mac WILL get more viruses as OS-X popularity will rise, as it will get more interesting for crime exploatation.
Your OS-x powered Mac is full of security holes, like swiss cheese, isn't patched accordingly, and is definitely the worst security-wise when running a clean install. Hell, it can be hacked under 2 minutes no problem, even Vista and XP combined have less security issues.
