Apple (Mac) Laptop Versus Dell PC Laptop

The question of Mac or PC is one that has been asked for some time, but has become more relevant with each passing year. Apple stocks are soaring to one-hundred dollars a share or more, and stores keep popping up all over the country. Dell PC's have also shown a rise in popularity due to easy purchasing power through payment plans. So which computer is better, the Mac or Dell PC.

I personally have both an Apple laptop and a Dell PC. I initially did not mean to purchase two computers but in the end that is what happened. I purchased the Mac laptop first for a number of reasons. For one, a Mac laptop is highly unlikely to get a virus when downloading or viewing files on the internet. Something that I think everyone is afraid of. A virus can be deadly to you personal computer and I would go to great lengths to avoid such a problem. So an Apple only seemed right for me. The Mac laptop was also small in size and easy to carry around in a backpack or small book bag. It is significantly lighter than some other laptops I have had in my life. I also like the look of the Mac laptops. The one that I purchased is a sleek white color with a light up Apple logo on the front. It may sound stupid, but lets face it, looks are important. Apple Laptops also come in black (in the newest version). In addition, the Mac offered some very good options as far as speed and memory goes. After all Apple computers are designed to be used for a number of very creative and artistic things, so the system is designed to be efficient in those areas, word processing does not seem to be Mac's strong suit.
