Don't buy a mac, they suck, and they're not reliable. Also, do not buy a laptop, they also break, I guarantee it. If you want the best economy, build the pc yourself from quality parts and you will get the most performance per dollar and the longest lasting system.

I don't understand what all this is about the Mac OS being so "reliable" I've known several people who had it die on them (crashing), locking up and having boot errors, hard drive failures, display failures. The list goes on. Mac = expensive crap in a pretty case

Windows XP is extremely reliable. Some of my systems I have doing processing have been up nearly a year without issue. As of right now, the last time I rebooted my system was 18.9 days ago, and its running fine. The only reason I did was because of an update. I can't even remember the last time I had to restart or had an XP system crash on me. If XP crashes its usually a hardware fault, not a software fault.
