lol...WTF is this...Apple Supporters United INC.

@Plaupius
The only reason Windows crashed on my mac is because it was on a mac. It ran super shitty from the start. The process of installing windows was full of bugs and glitches. One can tell the machine is not meant to run the software. Wether thats microsofts or Apples faulr...frakly I don't care. Nevertheless I wasn't blaming mac osx for not having the codecs (thank you). I was just stating that mac osx needs that stuff too... Every mac fan tends to pretend like macs shit dont stink.

@Final-Fan
Everyone took this "Apple macbooks are competitive at the launch of the product cycle" statement as a fact. I don't think its true at all. I have never seen a mac with same features priced closely to a brand name laptop. Also, I wasn't speaking from the aspect of the hardcore at all...you just got that out of thin air to support your argument. Normal people like myself I am speaking for...who buy a laptop every 3 years. People like me go from deciding that they need a new laptop...to buying a new laptop within a week.


@Bitmap Frogs
There really is no need to compare a non-pro macbook to high end manufacturers like HP and Toshiba in price. Those basic macbooks are pretty gimped when it comes to features and should be compared to lower end manufacturers. My mac had a basic screen (nothing like my current Acers crystalbrite screen), no VGA output, very few usb ports, a shotty dvd drive that wouldn't eject disks sometimes after only 3 months...
It did have a built in camera...and a price tag of 1200 dollars(in 2007). If you want to compare Vaios, higher end HP models...then you can compare it to Macbook pro...and lets see how that works out for you.

In any case, until you paste me a link here comparing a decent mac laptop (which can be on the beginning, middle or end of its cycle...consumer like myself really doesn't care) and a similarly speced PC laptop that are within 200 dollars of each other, my opinion will not change. I am willing to wait 6 months for this reply...if necessary.
