Theres this nice sale at best buy on HP and Sony laptops"

I'm gonna have to disagree on Sony Vaio's. I have had 4 personally over the years; all have had motherboard failures. The HP pavillion is an ok machine, but the usb ports/power plugs are flimsy. You will end up replacing them after a year or two.

I bought my wife a Sony Vaio about two years ago for Xmas.  It still runs like a champ and seems like it's brand new.  I am however going to renew her warranty on it when it's up this December.  You never know with computers.  Especially those Macs.

No, but two zealots don't make a, ummm, yeah.

My video audio integrated operation is still kicking after 5-years. No problems with any hardware either. I don't think it really matters what brand your computer is since they're not the ones making the parts. The only thing sony about a vaio is the tower(atx case) and/or disc drive. If you open a Macbook, you will see toshiba parts. So ya; my few cents. lol.

Im not bias.  There literally was a sale on HP and Sonys!    I bought an HP laptop.  My friend with a macbook that he bought a bit after I got a macbook looked at my HP, then looked at his Mac (which had a battery replacement in <2 yrs, and has a cracking case), then looked back at my HP and went "was that thing less than 1200$"

I said "Yep. Could get 2 for less than 1200"  he says "more than 1gb ram, and 100gb hd?"

I said "3gb, and 500gb hd".

he said "f*ck"   

Then I fired up FFXI since i was still playing it at the time and he goes "are you trying to make me kill myself or is that an innocent side effect to your superior computer"

my old ass pavilion (2 different ones) never had any port problems..  some people get unlucky I guess.

my buddys sony has been kicking for 4 years and hes a complete slob and spills/drops everything you can think of... :-D  it survived an orange juice spill.


mac hardware has its flaws too, and I still think they are way too damn overpriced.    Couple that with their elitist commercials, and its just a big goofy mess.

[Joe Redifer]

While I don't like the elitist commercials, if it sells, it sells.  It's not a mess.  I don't think Mac hardware is any more or less reliable than most other stuff out there.  Most people I know who use Macs don't seem to have hardware issues.  But then again, same thing goes with people I know who own Windows stuff.  I guess I just know high quality people.

I think Mac makes bullshit laptops to be honest.

Their home-models are great but those laptops are pieces of shit with a glowy apple slapped on them

[Joe Redifer]

The glowing apple is amazingly gay.  If I had a Mac laptop (Which I wouldn't because I am not a fan of laptops in general)< I'd put some electrical tape over that POS.

one time on an OLD laptop i used to drag around, some nimrod was all up on his glowy apple elitism so I said I could do that too on this laptop.


I went home and used a exacto knife, and some clear tape and came in the next day with a glowy apple , rofl.

we blew that laptop up last 4th of july.  What a show.

Why'd ya do that?  You could've sold it on ebay as a MAC.
