Im a not a huge computer guy, but i do love that my mac still runs extremely fast even after 3 years, whereas the PCs/Dells we have run like molasses for reasons unknown, and some are newer. Probably spyware crap... Which i don't have a problem with on my mac.
Mac's are fine, but PC's are more standardized, as far as compatibility and components go. There really is hardly any difference between the two now, other than proprietary case (or lack of one) design, etc. You can ran most OS's on either platform now, so the real difference is the price, aesthetics, and the cool stickers you can put on your car (probably a VW or Euro brand).

I don't know about the newest laptops, but the old ones were a pain in the ass to do just about anything on. Probably for sacrifice to looking nice, there are pretty much no removable panels to access hard drives, memory, wireless cards, etc.

You have to open up the whole damn clamshell, and use the smallest torx bit head screw ever made (T4 or T5 maybe? can't remember).

Screw that shit, lol. They do seem to be well put together though...
