Peace if you haven't noticed, all things Apple are cool, hip and "in"

Dell isn't that bad peace - they own for Business/Educational use.

Like I stated before, I got a new Dell, and It works fine, cant play games at Max Detail because, well, I didnt put 2gb ram, and a 7800 GTX in it...

BUYING AN APPLE IS LIKE GIVING THE DEVIL YOUR MONEY!!!!

/sarcasm

Apple computers, aside from all that hipness that is present, are still an extremely good choice for workstations. It's a relatively small market of course, but it is there and macs are one of the best choices. Basically what I'm saying is that they aren't just computers that are saying "Look at us! We're not mainstream, buy us!" ...OK, well they kind of are, but they have been very popular for a while in the 3D modeling/animation world.

Aye graphic artists love them. Also in the film industry with Finalcut

Dells are the best computers my dad will afford to buy.

No one that reads forums like this and is moderately competent should be buying a standard PC for home use.

It doesn't take anythign to build one yourself.

Laptops, and masive volumes are different, though.

Well, I have a dell, simply becuase I cant save the money long enough to be able t oafford the parts in one swoop, and it was a present, so what was i supposed to say? No, take it back, Ill have none of that. Thats pretty ignorant.

There are always Exceptions, gifts being one of them.

dude considering everything you get, dells are pretty fucking cheap. theres no way you can get a monitor, speakers, keyboard, mouse, printer (sometimes), plus the computer for what they ask. granted im not talking about the higher end rip off dells. I'm talking about the ones they're always running deals on.
