dont jump into conclusion.. It would be MacOSX vs Windows 7 later on lol..

Well, I've met people who wanted to buy a Macbook and only use WIndows 7 on it .. And this is then considered "overpriced" LoL.. Whats the point of using Win 7 on Macbooks? When you can buy better hardware for Windows 7..

So, which one to buy? I'm confused.

Brand doesn't matter blush.gif

Look at your needs for the laptop and your budget. You have to look at the specs and warranty/after sales service. blush.gif

As for me I'd buy anything that satisfy my needs and money biggrin.gif

Really.. for the Mac vs other brands it should be whether you use MacOSX or Windows thats it..

the pic could be very true in US or most part of Europe. Even though DELL from US but not many ppl using it. Most ppl used Mac. Only in Asia with their low income would ppl glorify brand like Acer or Dell.

We glorify it? We use windows doh.gif So buy macbook for windows?? doh.gif

Heavy Gamers don't use Macbook doh.gif doh.gif doh.gif

What's wrong with people buying other brands besides Apple Mac? It makes them stupid?

What if i say Sager/Clevo ? Those are cheapskates like the rest also? and Mac is the allpowerfull 13", 15", and 17" fastest notebooks in the universe?

No offense my friend has a macbook does not become a fanboy like you are doh.gif doh.gif

There's a reason why we choose not to buy Macbooks.. Money we have.. But doh.gif doh.gif We'd buy better specs and since that most of us are brought up with Windows yeah.. we'd buy the other brands..

Macbook for multimedia editing is nice.. But we want something all in one..
-Good Specs
-Reasonable price?
-Some people wants Windows Gaming capability
-Still can do multimedia editing thumbup.gif

Please la bro, dun make stupid comment such as this....BSOD is normal even for Mac (well i dunno if they got the same name)...even Mac (OSX) hangs sometimes doh.gif...i got a lot of friends using Macbook and it HANGS also bro doh.gif....

We are not bashing Mac here, just pointing something out...please bro, not everyone are into Mac because 85% people that use laptop also use it for games....even my friends that using MBP always come to me and borrow my lowly S42 to play Dirt2 & ACII...i said to install Win 7 in their MBP, already installed but they say the performance is not as great as mine...how bro, for business use & doing some multimedia apps, Macbook is great but still when we want one all-rounder laptop, who would go for Mac bro...

wink.gif Nicely said

There's a reason why Windows 7 and MacOSX are different.. Coming to think of it isnt it more of an OS thingy? not the hardware doh.gif

You think I'd give a fcuk if your Proton(Acer) has better specs compared to my BMW(Macbook)?

There's  a lot more that goes into a laptop than just specs.. I learnt that after switching my 7 month old toshiba to a Macbook. It's way more comfortable/interesting to watch a HD TV SHow on a Macbook compared to a Toshiba....
*
What the ?? U compare Proton with Acer?

Define "It's way more comfortable/interesting to watch a HD TV SHow" This depends on the codec and the lcd la doh.gif
You want real HD? make sure its a 1080P LCD when you buy a notebook...

Sorry la.. Macbook for HD TV Show ONLY? Seriously? I'd prefer, I think most prefer an allrounder notebook.

based on the replies on this thread and the votes for Apple just because of it's price, I'd say this thread is filled with cheapos.... Malaysians... can't afford a premium priced laptop coz of various reason, just f*** it down with a "lousiest laptop vote"...LOL
ps- to the idiot who said that Apple is not high-end because of specs-the term high-end is not limited to specs(this guy is a marketing noob)..

If you say a Macbook is all about OSX... you got it wrong...

I think you've got it wrong doh.gif doh.gif doh.gif OSX is awesome thumbup.gif

But other notebooks has better specs for Windows 7 thumbup.gif

Oh my...you just didn't get it do you...doh.gif...Rolex sells BRAND & QUALITY...even a 2" kid knows that...Macbook also the same but then again referring to spec, others seems a lot better unless you want to use OSX...

Back again to the question,

What can MACBOOK offer us except for the fact that it uses OSX

Just like Sony VAIO, they sell the BRAND...same goes with Macbook, they sell BRAND & OSX....

Yes please do answer "What can MACBOOK offer us except for the fact that it uses OSX"

The fastest in market imo is the Intel X25-M Gen2 SSD.

But wow 500GB? killer size there man biggrin.gif How much it cost you iinm 512GB was like RM4k+

But still SSD provides killer speed too biggrin.gif
