Apple gatecrashes Widows 7's party

Macs are find. Windows machines are fine. They all do stuff, which is what you want them for.

Linux is fine even.. oh wait, no it's not..

You like what you like for why you like it (perfect sense). I've used Macs and Macbooks and didn't get on with them (probably mainly due to learning computers with a PC) but I have nothing against Apple, in fact my iPod is probably the first thing I would grab if my house was on fire. All these arguments between the two platforms are for tossers IMO

the macbook air is about 90k rupees in India...you can get a better spec laptop in India for half the price(compaq,hp etc etc) but i still want the MacBook Air

Yup - the Air is gorgeous, but overpriced. For a little more you can get a Macbook Pro, which while it's a heavier machine, it is also more powerful and upgradeable.

Given the topic, I thought this was kinda funny...

As I said above, the prices in the US are much lower especially when you take into consideration that AUD$1 = around 92 cents US.

For the Australians, check out these prices here: http://store.apple.com/us

We are being robbed in Australia.

By the way, my 6 years old Dell PC, although pronounced "dead" by DELL support and Cyberscrub AV, is still functioning perfectly, so its demise is very much exaggerated.

Well what the hell do you expect - a bunch of criminals living half way round the world plus the training for you "Roo's" is very difficult

I think the best Apple for my use would be their notebook. $900 (student discount) and free shipping. Not too bad, but I'm a broke college kid. I could get a brand new PC for about $600 with a lot more kit.

I had a PC and now a Mac, and the Mac is so so so much better, never freezes, no viruses, no dealing with McA. and it runs alot smoother than a PC

There's a big difference between convicts and criminals. Just watch The Wire and you'll understand.

I would get a Mac, but I can put up with the odd glitch for a computer that is half the price of a Mac.

Don't need much to surf the net...
