I've been working with Windows 7 and agree that it is pretty darn good....though I am still partial to XP....once Windows 7 is actually out and for sale I will probably complete my switchover.
MAC, while "a good computer" I suppose.....is just too expensive. I can't understand why people march into their stores like Zombies and pay such inflated prices. Its reeeally not worth it....being frugal, it goes against my grain of being....
People who think that $1500 for a decent laptop is a "good deal" have way too much cash on their hands. I consider $300-400 a good deal for a laptop/netbook.
And so far all the ones I've bought have been less than that.
