Not to mention that even if its a POS she can still turn around in 2 years and buy the latest tech for the same price again and still be under what an Apple would have cost her originally.
Can't edit...but for those that want to complain about extra software...
OpenOffice, Avast, SpyBot Search & Destroy, MalwareBytes, GIMP, and Macrium Reflect Free. There's all the productivity and security software I need, not a penny spent.
Actually, she saved $1300. And got exactly what she wanted.You cant tell me that she just saved $2000 by buying that POS...
Who said I had issues? Windows' overall performance seems to degrade severely due what I assume are fundamental flaws with the registry among other things, so it needs to be reinstalled annually if you're not impressively tidy about the way you do things. You do the same thing:
I love Windows XP, but you have to absolutely baby it to keep it running lean and mean, so that's precisely what I do. I don't do anything crazy, either: just installing, running and uninstalling normal programs. The same thing I do on OS X.

ok, this is my last quote.....but I do like that windows machines are much more hackable, whereas mac os, you have to go through hoola hoops (and there may be many). Then again, don't quote me on this as this is what I have felt for a long time.
Actually if this is all true. Microsoft paid for the laptop for her so she saved the entire cost of a new laptop as she got it for free.

People incorrectly believe that Macs are somehow more secure than Windows when they are MUCH less secure in reality. The day that Macs are used in important financial or government tasks is the day people will realize this. Luckily, I don't think that day is near.
Mac OS X 10.5 EULA said:THE APPLE SOFTWARE IS NOT INTENDED FOR USE IN THE OPERATION OF NUCLEAR FACILITIES, AIRCRAFT NAVIGATION OR COMMUNICATION SYSTEMS, AIR TRAFFIC CONTROL SYSTEMS, LIFE SUPPORT MACHINES, EQUIPMENT IN WHICH THE FAILURE OF THE APPLE SOFTWARE COULD LEAD TO DEATH, PERSONAL INJURY, OR SEVERE PHYSICAL OR ENVIRONMENTAL DAMAGE.
How is this computer related? All I saw was a hawt redhead.
Because whatever's written in the EULA correlates precisely to how an operating system behaves in the real world, right?And there's a reason the OSX EULA has this in it...Oh yeah, that really inspires confidence in the solid stability of your OS.
Actually, she saved $2100+ because the cheapest 17" Mac laptop is the 17" MacBook Pro which as a base model has a $2799 price tag.
I don't care which is better, I use windows because I like to screw with every little part of the software and hardware. But HOLY COW $2799 is completely a outrageous price to pay for a laptop 17" or not. I would buy a new windows laptop every year at $700 without even thinking about it before I would spend that much for over glorified toaster.
But...it's white!
I was looking at the pink one.
Yah,
Because you know, my Dell Inspiron 700m is almost 4 years old and still on the original install of XP Pro...
I have a little secret to share with you: Linux and Mac OSX can indeed get corrupted too.
Alas, the carpet doesn't match the drapes.
Hmm.. guess I must throw in my two cents.. Any way you chase it, you are using a computer, and shit happens. That said, for my money, I have no desire to spend on the apple premium, and get locked into their proprietary system.
Apple claims to be better built, more secure, slicker, etc. Only truth there is, perhaps slicker.. but then again, no such thing as custom Mac is there, and I have seen some damn slick custom Pc's on these boards. I had a mac book pro that died literally 2 times inside of 3 months. Both times, they were good about replacing it, but I eventually sold the unit on craigslist and bought a $549 laptop running windows!! That was my brief go in the Mac world. Also, those who say more secure, consider who lost the last few hack contests that get reported on these boards... that is right- Apple..
I can slap windows on a machine slapped together from spare parts found in my garage, and guess what, it will run. Not possible on the Mac. Plus, I can game, and I do not need to worry about running multiple OS to get my standard stuff done..
I cannot remember the last time my primary Vista computer crashed. The apple I mentioned above, crashed about 10 times or so, in the brief 3 months I owned it.
So cheaper, less proprietary, runs on anything (means I do not need to purchase a new computer when I want to upgrade), does everything I need to do (cannot be said of mac without running dual OS with windows), does not crash and is more secure... No brainer!!

How do we know? Notice at 0:13 when she walks into the store, there is a balding guy with jacket and striped shirt and camera walking by. He is still walking by when she leaves the store filmed on the other camera. That gave her less than a second in the store. She said she walked in and looked around but how could this be?.
