Macs do work well, I've been working with them for the last 8 months. Old 700Mhz eMacs, Dual Xeon Mac Pros, old Macbooks, the latest Macbook Pro's, all iMac models, etc. etc. etc. I've taken them all apart, put them back together and installed countless OS images.
^why is it possibly better then any windows laptop? highly more expensive for inferior hardware.
There's no denying it to me, I am impressed by how well some of the stuff works. Take my Macbook Pro, it runs tons of programs really well and really fast. Photoshop, uTorrent, Word, Excel, Firefox Safari and Chrome, even windows 7.
Battery life is great (about 5-7 hours depending on usage), it looks clean and simple in its design, the screen is clear and the colours look great.
Inferior hardware? Hardly...
Expensive? **** yeah.
Macs have the advantage of not having to accommodate hundreds of hardware manufacturers with their OS. All the hardware is Apple spec too. Less cluttered OS means less chance of incompatible hardware causing crashes. With Macs, you can unpack them and it works. Updating the software is simple, and works MUCH better than windows updates I gotta say.
Obviously they have their weaknesses, but saying that you HATE them, and that they are INFERIOR sounds like fanboy talk to me.
