actually the macbook is possibly the easiest to upgrade ram, u just take out the batter and then remove the metal casing and u can just upgrade the ram rele easily, i know cos i have a macbook. it runs very quick loading up and stuff and tends to be pretty gd. it is more expensive than other laptops though and u could get a rele cheap hp laptop which runs pretty quick. though with windows they do tend to slow down after using it for a while. the mac doesn't seem to do that as much but then again thats prob cos u don't install any new applications. don't get an alienware, i reckon they are overpriced as well, more so than the apple macs.
^but mostly overpriced for a reason....the 8800gtx or whatever that laptop chip is nowadays lol...it's not overpriced, if you buy that stuff for gaming..... the only activities you can pretty much do i think kinda better on the mac is editing videos and using it for photo editing i guess...well if you only use the default applications Imovie> Windows movie maker. but i think programs should make the difference. lol never used any windows program to edit movies...but final cut pro on the mac was sick, loved that program.
i'll compare macair with my sony lmao Mac Air=pros: Thin, LED Screen (newest screens). cons: useless, piece of sh*t that can't do anything, only has 1 USB, heavy as hell.... same weight as regular laptops My Sony NR110E or whatever it is..., Cpu is okay, screen is okay, easy to upgrade thingys, 4 usb, dvd+-rw, 120gb HD, not so heavy.. might be even lighter than that stupid MacAir, quality is pretty good... only about 2 Macair put together=1 Sony laptop not so big in my opinion, not easy to break unlike the macair -bigsmile thats my stupid small comparison -whistle
why is the macair always being compared, i think it is just a common fact that the macair is overpriced. i think a more reasonable comparison would be with the macbook.
