i'll actually have a full keyboard with a number pad with im excited for, i currently have a cramped keyboard with no num pad (stand alone num lock is the main thing i want for all the auto running i do...atm i have to hit a special key + scroll to num lock)



but thats about it. no tv tuner or anything special, just excited to get a new laptop after 3 years with my $500 laptop.

oh and ill have windows 7 after years of (shitt) vista. i was tempted to downgrade to xp when i 1st got my laptop but by the time i thought of it i already had wow and everything installed and didnt wanna repeat that >.>

well, actually it is:

OSX > ... > some linux/bsd distros > ... > W7 > some other linux/bsd distros > OS9 > W98 > W3.11 > ... > vista.



and this is only macOS, linux/bsd and windows.



if a comp is not able to run OSX, it is not worth gettin it.... at least if you use for anything else than gaming aswell.
 
OSX runs games?



o.0
 
well, blizz is supporting mac for ages... and with intels inside there are more games released for mac.

it is still not THE gaming platform, but i am not using my comp for games only. if a game is not released for mac, i'm not goin to play it. period. you can boot a winXP/7 on a mac just for gaming purposes if you wish... but that's nothing i want to do.



at the end of the day macs/osx > pcs/win overall and there is no game or office suite out there, that forces me to use any windows system again!



after installing a win system, the first thing you have to do is fixing and guarding it. the first thing you have to do after installing a linux/bsd system, is trying to understand it and then fixing its drawbacks. the first thing you have to do after installing osx, is to figure out what you want to do with. and that is what i want to do... USING it, not FIXING it.
 
at the end of the day pc > mac regardless of operating system



macs are overpriced "pieces of art"...they are inferior technologically, allow no customization, all proprietary



someday people will make viruses (they already do) and such for macs then you wont be all high and mighty with your 'using not fixing' and such.....just you wait. i would much rather be able to build my system from the ground up with parts i choose and all that good stuff than buy an overpriced piece of aluminum

hehe lol. seems you are not in the bizniz.

well, most of the people will be fine using a windows pc... but that has nothing to do with a good product.

i'm not goin to jump on your arguments, but they are pointless. far off tbh.



let's end this discussion here. just have fun with your new comp.
