Personally i would go for Alienware! Windows is alot better than Apple in my eyes.

I guess it depends on what you want the computer for and what you feel comfortable using...

Impossible to answer without more detailed information about what you want to do with it.

The macbook if you're a serious computer user. The Dell if you're a gamer and compulsive downloader of dodgy software.

money no issue then get them both.

If not I would lean towards the alienware but it really is down to what he wants to use it for. Both can do the basic stuff no problem. both can run windows if required.

For all the things you have mentioned, I would stick with Windows. The Microsoft office software for Macs is dreadful if you are used to Microsoft Office for Windows.

You will also have to get used to the Mac operating system which is quite a bit different from Windows (just enough to be irritating if you are not used to it).

Gaming is also better on Windows - nearly non existent on Mac as far as I am concerned.

But all the above is from a Windows enthusiast! roud:

Again depends what you want the software for, you can buy photoshop for mac or just use Gimp its free and equally as good as photoshop.

you have garage band on a mac so learn how to play an instrument or two or just create your own tunes.

I works is like office but for the mac and it will read etc all office doc's

quiet a few games can be had for the mac that are available ie portal 2 etc..

Personally I would go Mac I have the pleasure of using both windows a work and mac at home..
