By the way, Dell's competing laptop is the XPS M1330.

Speced with everything you can get in it that the Mac Book has, it cost $1,584 (with 4 gig of ram).

The black Mac Book from Newegg, with 4 gig of ram, cost $1,569.

Plus the mac comes with software that's better then anything you can get on the PC, at any price.

You also don't get a remote, and you only get 128Meg, and not 144 meg video memory.

When you look at the specs, you can tell it is a direct competitor to the Mac Book, and it cost more.

Who is now more expensive?

hahahah are you kidding me? you just compared an intel Intel gma x3100 to the nvidia geforce 8400m video card. You my friend know jack crap about video cards. that's 144mb of shared memory on an intergrated video card.

gheez...talk about cherry picking

 

 

I just saw that it's dedicated memory on the Nvidia. The info was misleading (I read shared memory, but the path I went didn't give me an option for video cards). I also see there is an option for the exact same video card that's in the Mac for $100 less. SO that's puts the Mac at $85 more then the Dell.

Still very close. I also could not find where the Dell has a built in webcam, although the image looks like it does. The Mac also has the magnetic power... magnetic closures, and OSX blows anything MS has ever made away.

I am typing this on my PC at the moment, running Vista. I just got done with a session of Crysis, and checked this site. I usually do it on my Mac Book Pro. I am a Microsoft Developer, so I am not some Mac fanboy that has no clue.

Good choice on the Mac wfz, you won't be disapointed!
