MacBooks are cool. After selling them for so long, every other laptop and notebook looks and feels inferior, ugly and heavy. Who would pick a free Toshiba/Dell/HP/Acer/Samsung over a free, same spec MacBook?

well the one thing that is kind of annoying is ChemDraw wasn't available for mac until the semester after I needed it and LabView is still not available for it afaik. For whatever reason the technology office failed to bootcamp my computer and now won't try again for free because I'm not an electrical engineering major or some bs so I just had to use the computer lab to do some assignments instead of being able to do them on my own. kind of lame

I'd still pick the Toshiba/Dell/HP/Acer/Samsung not a fan of Mac OS.

:O OS X is awwwwwwesome. I really hated it at first, but now I am so comfortable and find myself getting annoyed with windows at times. I like windows because it is so much more customizable and fun etc, and ofc as Shellshock said there is the issue of compatibility and lack of open source and the app store is kinda lacking. AND you gotta pay for so much. But to be fair, in most of those cases at least the developer is getting something, rather than having his shit pirated.

I know SirJolt has my back on this, RIGHT?

Also, having a windows desktop and a macbook can't be the worst things in the world, right?

I enjoy my MacBook Air for on-the-road very much. But can't live without my Windows desktop. Mac OS X's biggest flaw is the lack of Foobar2000.

Mac OS uses Helvetica instead of Arial. Also the rendering is different I guess.

Apple laptops tend towards low TDP-limited processors with integrated graphics and also poor cooling in order to shrink in size and gain battery life; generally laptops are built too small and light for the parts that they carry, it's a big concern especially on a gaming laptop. For a non-gaming laptop, i'm not really sure - not at all interested in that right now :D
