Dell sent me a 35% off coupon today, but I really like the look of the macs - especially now that they have boot camp.

It really depends on what you want to do with it. if you have an ipod an dlike to edit music, videos and do a lot of graphic design. Then the mac is for you. If it is for a bit of web surfing or for general word processing then I would asvise the dell pc software is cheap and easy to use verses the mac which has a quirky operating system if you have never used it before. plus with a regular pc such as the dell the compatability is far greater so other devices like wirless routers etc will work and confiure much easir. Hope it helps

dell is probably your best deal\n\nhttp://dealnews.com/online-stores/Dell-Home/638/ usually posts dell deals daily with dell coupons. so you can browse through their deals until you find one you like. don't forget to apply the dell coupon.\n\nhere's a dual core centrino, 15.4" lcd, 1 GIG ram, 40GIG HD (you can upgrade it), dual layer DVDRW, windows xp media center for $700:\n\nhttp://dealnews.com/deals/Dell-Inspiron-E1505-Dual-Core-1-66-GHz-15-Widescreen-Notebook-for-709-shipped/118103.html\n\nit has everything you could want except a discrete gaming graphics card and a high resolution monitor. but then you'd be paying at least $300 more, and you're probably not going to get that from sony or apple for less than $1300.

I have had good luck with Dell laptops, and they have easy payment plans and good pricing but I can suggest a couple of other links too for looking at laptops.

I could give you so many reasons to buy a Apple.\nApple has a student discount 365 days of the year.\nI also recommend to get your computer when the computer companies release their Back To School program.  I can almost guarantee that Apple's Back To School program will include a iPod with your computer purchase.\nAlso now that the new Apples can run Windows Xp and Mac OS X there is no reason to buy anything else when you can do it all with a mac.\nWhat are you going to school for?\nFor student discounts call 1-800-My-Apple\nor \nclick the link below and  select your school\n\nMSG me for any more ?'s

Emachines will be a bum. I am getting a dell. My sister has a HP Laptop and it is OK. I heard a lot of great stuff about a Compaq. I still would take a dell

It's an awesome experience which I recommend to anyone who can appreciate simplicity, quality, elegance, ease of use, superior software and OS which is way ahead of XP. Don't listen to all of those arrogant Windows users - they've never tried a Mac (and maybe it's for the best, because one of the things which keep Apple a great company is its small but faithful marketshare) so they don't know what they're missing..\n\nBy the way, if you switch I can recommend you the new Mac mini as a starter, it's got some great features and it's really cost-effective!\n\nOnce you go Mac, you cannot go back..

Check out Dell... You can get discount coupons at deals2buy.com. You can have really good configuration for $1,000 to $1,300 + Tax if applicable.\nIf you dont have budget constraints then go for Apple's MacBook Pro. At $2,499 you can get a 2.16 GHz, 1 GB RAM and 100 GB Hard Drive beauty.

Apple gives pretty good discount to students, but i'm not sure about non-profit.  The student store is convieniently online.\n\nThe question of a MacBook Pro being good for video editing depends on your needs.  It is a good mobile solution, but doesn't leave you with much hard drive space to work with.  In my case, I have the 15" MacBook Pro with a 2.0 GHz Intel.....100 GB 7200 RPM hard drive.  I chose the 7200 because it's better for video, but my primary purpose was school, where i need to pull things up quickly and save quickly.  By the time the OS was installed, Final Cut Studio (everything = 46 GB installed), 12 GB of music, and a few pictures, i only had 20 Gig left for video!  For smaller projects, that's fine, but as for everything else, it's externa.  I usually edit at home anyways, because editing at school or whereever else I am doesn't work out.  I have to have my SD monitor and either my large speakers or my large headphones.  If you weren't mobile all the time like I am, i would recommend an iMac for your price range.  You get a lot more hard drive space, and a larger monitor for less money.

Do a Google search for "Dell coupon code"  they publish internet only coupons for better deals than on their site.

Dells will have more bells and whistles, conform in the business world, and a better selection of software is available.  Macs are less susceptible to viruses, have better operating systems, and are better media centers.  Macs are cool.

Dell XPS, it just looks cool!   It would be a fun thing to take on vacations and long trips.  \n\nhttp://sonic.animebots.co.uk/DUSTBIN/Dell_xps_03.jpg

Well, you might get good deals on Dell.  But I wouldn't recommend a Dell to you.  All my roomies have been having problems with their Dell laptops (maybe the Made in China stuff infuses cheap electronics and bad quality).  If you want a cheap system, go for a Dell, but their quality isn't up to mark.  Secondly, they have been having hardware problems lately, especially with laptop batteries.  There was a huge notebook recall.\n\nI would recommend HP (and Compaq) or Toshiba for good performance and decent prices.  Apple is awesome for looks and build quality and battery life.  But you won't find a lot of Windows application on the Mac OS.  You can get good reviews on CNETReviews or Notebook Review (if you want to buy a laptop).
