I read similar things about the W140 but I'm enjoying the S420.
We recently got a Dell desktop and laptop for the house. Win XP home on both. Turned them on the first time and they found the wireless network and recognized and self-installed any accessories. I don't know how much easier it can be.
I don't dislike Apples or Macs, I just can't justify the price premium.
I'm impressed that with this Dell desktop I can be on this forum in 35 seconds from a cold start. A little longer for the laptop. Older MS OSs took minutes. There's obviously room for improvement since Pocket PC boots in the time it takes to lift your finger from the on button. Do Macs have a long boot sequence or are they ready to go when you press the on button?
SBC makes DSL with a Mac seem daunting. The installation kit came with a wizard for PCs and a booklet for Macs. WTF?
Doesn't Gates or MS have a stake in Apple?
