guys i would like to ask, should i get an XPS 16 or a macbook? i like the spec of the xps 16 but it seems that there's a lot of complains on the overheating problem. compared to the macbook which has lower spec, which is better? i'm not into gaming on my laptop as i have my pc for that so it's more on graphic designing and video editting.

well actually, i'm looking for something that's a bang for the buck. yup, i'm really interested to use mac os but the spec of the macbook is not that powerful compared to the xps 16 which makes me think twice before purchasing. some more, the mac is a bit more expensive than the xps. for the heat, since it's a laptop so i will use it on my lap sometimes and not just putting it on the table. i have a computer to do that. the xps is more on my mobile computer that i will carry often.

btw, i hate vista. i prefer xp than vista.

if i may ask, what's the problem with the keyboard and the media keys? yeah i know it's kinda fingerprint prone. btw, how's the leather exterior? won't it get damaged easily with our weather here?
what's the average temp u'll be getting for heavy tasking such as video editting or probably gaming?

the prob with high temp is that it'll damage the interior especially the board and may also defect the body one day. i see that happen on a compaq before.



why i hate vista is because some programs are not compatible with it and the number of popups for security issues.
