| 1205444 | 2011-06-01 09:25:00 | Don't quite agree. My observation is that, most Mac owners DON'T do their home work before purchasing it. You are welcome to your opinion.:rolleyes: |

| 1205447 | 2011-06-01 14:40:00 | Nothing wrong with Apple systems except they are proprietary and expensive! That is why I use Linux! The beauty with Macs lies in the fact that they are propretary. At least, that's the reason why a Macbook can get up to 9 hours of battery life, while most other laptops are struggling to hit 4 hours (except for ultraportables and netbooks of course). But on the other hand, I honestly have no idea why anyone would buy a Mac. As it turn out, a lot of people around me have Macs! What's going on? |

| 1205448 | 2011-06-01 15:02:00 | Welcome to the real world. Not everyone is a computer expert or even slightly interested in computers for that matter. Then that's their problem if they buy an overpriced system pre-loaded with bloated cruft. But the fact is that it IS possible to build a system which uses good quality parts and which is cheaper than a Mac or a brand name PC. There are also people who built 'Hackintosh' systems with the same specifications as a real Mac, benchmarked the two and found the clone to be faster (And something like half the price) |

| 1205449 | 2011-06-02 00:32:00 | I hate it when people say that macs are overpirced. Even though the price tag is large to start with they basically go out of the box. Unlike some windows computers. dicksmith.co.nz dicksmith.co.nz The mac completely out performs the asus and only $200 more (not adding on anti-virus etc etc) They're not actually that overpriced, and at least you get quality parts. Then that's their problem if they buy an overpriced system pre-loaded with bloated cruft. I believe HP and Hell are kings of bloatware, imo mac does have any But the fact is that it IS possible to build a system which uses good quality parts and which is cheaper than a Mac or a brand name PC. I do agree with this completely tho +1 |

Really?? :confused: Did you actually look at the Spec's of both. The Asus has a HDD twice the capacity , twice the Amount of Memory, a better more modern CPU ( a Intel Core i5-460M will blow away the Intel Core 2 Duo in the MAC), Larger screen on the ASUS. About the only thing bigger/larger in the MAC is the possible battery Life. |

| 1205452 | 2011-06-02 05:42:00 | The mac completely out performs the asus and only $200 more (not adding on anti-virus etc etc) I'm assuming that the extra $200 goes towards the excess steel apple uses. |
