How is the install rigged? How is it low performance? What are Macs flaws? Macs dont have anti-virus cause they don't need it, their aren't any, instead the ppl with the knowledge to write a virus write a cool widget or tool thats helps you rather than causes damage. Programs don't crash, u dont get ghost keys in ur registry, u dont get fatal errors, you dont hvae 5 minute startup and shut down times. But my favourite things are the little things like magnetic power cords that just simply disconnect if you trip over them rather than sending your laptop crashing to the ground.

Macs are the same price as comparable Windows laptops. Hes looking at getting a 2000$ HP or Dell, macbooks aren't even 1500 and they will out perform that HP or Dell laptop.

But to each his own, everyone will have preferences, just like i'll never go back to an HP or Dell, and Rook will never go to a mac, but we both get what we need done and are happy in the end (hopefully).

So it's all up to you, what do you like? what are you going to be happy with is the question, not what we think you'd be happy with.
