Apple vs. PC

I’m glad I made this thread. Good shit.

Good point, and probably the reason why I will end up with a PC laptop to save a few bucks. (assuming that it is, in fact cheaper) As I mentioned before, this laptop will do absolutely nothing else besides store a lot of music, and run this DJ program. That’s it. The DVD drive and wireless will be disabled, and the OS will be trimmed down to run as lean as possible. There is actually an optimization procedure that the program has yo udo when you install it that disables a lot of the crap that would usually run in the background. So really, I don’t think I benefit at all from having a Macbook in this instance.

Anyone know a good site where I can compare an Apple laptop vs an equally equipped PC lappy? I’m just curious how two machines of equal hardware actually compare in price right now.

FWIW, Total cost of ownership on an apple is generally lower. Once you consider how well they hold their value, how cheap OS upgrades are, etc… you will make out on top w/ the apple.

I can’t tell you how many people I know (including myself) that cheaped out on a PC, and regretted it every day afterwards.
