[QUOTE="CobraBob, post: 16596292, member: 6727"] Are you making that statement from personal experience? Or just repeating what someone else might have said. I actually have used MacBook Pros for well over 10 years, along with owning various PCs. I have a MacBook Pro that's about 6 years old (my wife uses it) and it's as fast and issue-free as the day I bought it. Solidly built all around. A keyboard that's a joy to use. And a trackpad that is so good I don't need to use an optional mouse. My co-worker has a 5 1/2 year old HP Envy laptop that cost about $500 less than that MacBock Pro. I'm in the process right now setting up his [U]new[/U] HP Envy, because his old one is at death's door. Over the past year or so he's been asking me to fix this and check that. Most recently, he's been getting boot drive errors intermittently and it is running as slow as a slug. So, I guess my old MacBook Pro has proven to have been a good bang for the buck machine. Having used both Windows machines and Macs together over the past 15+ years, I've found Macs to be a good long-term value and offer a good return on investment. Oh, and if I SELL a used Mac, I actually get a good price for them. All of it proving they're actually good investments. That said, folks that prefer Windows machines should definitely go there. What you choose should be determined by your needs. So a lesser cost PC might work fine, or you can build one, or buy/build a more stout machine. Again, depending on your actual needs. [/QUOTE]
