The price difference is scary. I was a big HP fan. I had two HP laptops. I got such great use out of them. For the money it was great. Like I said I have used PC all of my life until recently. My opinions on 'Mac vs. PC' are very new and fresh. I have had my new iMac for about 2 months maybe a little longer. I have yet to find anything to annoy me, or frustrate me. Marcus, as of right now, I would have to agree with the people that argue that you are getting a more powerful OS for the money. I still haven't had a chance to do all that I want with my new iMac. I'm deployed right now, so I can't even put in online yet...:-( I also have to bring up what I read in John Harrington's Best Business Pratices for Photographers... Buy the best for your business. Right now I think Mac is the best for my photography business. Tech support for 15 years? Wow... I used to want to do that but I guess over the years my interests have changed. Marcus, you are right about Apple paying attention to detail... It's expensive but I had to try to get the best I could afford for my needs... I couldn’t agree with you more about the price.

After configuring the macbook pro I wanted, I then went to dell and configured a laptop that was nearly identical. I say nearly because the dell had a slightly faster processor, 1 GB more RAM, and a larger hard drive (these were all the minimum specs for the same size laptop at dell). The difference in price? The Dell was $700 less than the Mac for better hardware.I really hated Vista, but I just couldn't justify spending an extra $700 on a less powerful laptop. Some would argue that you're getting a more powerful OS, but I don't think it was worth that much money. I've been doing tech support for 15 years on just about every computer and OS out there. Apple makes some very sexy machines, and really pay attention to the details when it comes to creating the user interface for the systems, but for my money, it's just not worth it.
