If you were forced to buy an Alienware or a Mac, which one would you buy, and why? Also, this would be your ONLY computer. Yes, you have to pay, you have to use it, you can't re sell it, etc.
I'm not really sure. I would think the Mac would be a better choice because they have high resell value, but you might be able to use Alienware's flashy lights to get someone to pay more. I'm gonna go with Apple on this one.

Nobody's perfect, so neither is Hannah Montana Linux, but it's pretty great.

They all suck. They just suck differently. Sort of like prostitutes.
Well, er, depends. Do we actually have to pay for it?
If we do, I shoot the person who's making me do this with an RPG.
If we don't, I'd happily take a Mac. The only thing wrong with Macs is their recockulously high price tag, it's ridiculous how much they overprice them. Also, Apple is a terrible, evil, heartless company - their latest visits to court prove this statement. Personally, though, I kinda like OSX, but I'd never want to waste so much money on a Mac when I could either build an equivalent Hackintosh for half the price or something better, which runs Linux and if I really cared that much, some mac themes and tweaks.
What if you already have a 2011 8GB 17" 256GB SSD MBP?
So alienware or what?

The Commies count their quarters and the ArtSci wish they could, the Engs have the longest pole and slam it home for good, so big, so hard, so tall, it reaches all the way to heaven, so shut your hole, we climbed the pole, we're sci 1 ing 7!!!
I don't think people will argue over Alienware vs apple.

I've kinda wanted to try a Mac if they weren't so absurdly expensive.
Still, rules state, no brand wars.
Thinking about coming a mod to simply not moderate.

I don't want it to break rules. That is very unintentional.
So literally overpay for crap hardware just to replace it with Windows.
Yeah that makes sense.
How about Hackintosh an Alienware?

Well based on the situation yes I dislike the osx UI. Apple over charges but Dells products are generally **** parts.
if i'm gonna waste that much money on OSX I might as well get the legit thing.
So alienware or what?
alienware probably has a higher resell value than a mac and alienware could actually handle games, quite obvious choice
Hahah yeah no.
