I'll chime in as a mac fanboy.


I am 21. Ever since 6th grade (9 years ago?) I was at "laptop" schools, in which we had to have our own laptops, and used them in EVERY class. I went through something like 4 HP laptops and 2 Sony Vaios. They had an absurd amount of problems. I knew a bunch of people with Compaqs and they had the most problems out of everyone.

About 2 years ago my last Sony Vaio crashed on me. I wandered into the Sony store (KOP mall), platinum Visa in hand. I was standing there, looking at $2300 computers, ready to buy one. The people in the store refused to come help me, even though there were no other customers in the store.

I wandered down to the Apple store to ask about using that partition software so that I could run windows on a macbook. The guy told me to just go buy a PC if I wanted to run windows... but then he handed me a macbook and told me to mess around on it and see what I thought.

And guess what computer I'm typing this message on
Had it for 2 years now, no problems (other than a smashed screen, which was 150% my fault).
