I have the impression that Mac is a lot better to record with then Windows.
It's great for schoolwork as well, since it run text documents and internet browsers just as good as Windows The only thing is that Mac is slightly restricted when it comes to gaming. Other then that, I believe it's superior. I'm not the best source though, these are just my personal experiences -------------------- GMC is not just a website... It's a lifestyle!

Pavilion is a desktop PC and I was making my comment more towards the newer laptops. On my laptop it's written HP Pavilion dv9000. Thanks a lot for the comment, now I see the point. -------------------- Check out my <a href="https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/instructor/Emir-Hot" target="_blank">Instructor profile</a>

I've owned a couple toshiba laptops in the past and never had a problem with them. Those are 5/6 years old, when laptops were pricey.
Now I use a much more powerful & much cheaper Samsung, and I'm also happy with it. Though I have it since last Christmas, and I still don't know if it will keep being as reliable in the future as Toshiba's were. I've also heard good things about Dell. I've never used a Mac, so can't help there. -------------------- Guitars:

If you are already well versed in Windows you should stick with it.. I think Windows 7 is going to be a big improvement. However, if this is your first computer you should definitely try a Mac. You'll be laughing at your friends with all their viruses and trojans while you're happily working away. And anyway, Macs can run Windows at the same time, so best of both worlds. And Macs are well made, I'm typeing this on TiBook that is 7 years old!!
Just a note about HP... I have not used their products, but I work for a trucking company with ties to HP, and we haul hundreds of loads of bad (defective, broken, etc.) gear, to a several giant warehouses where they are reshipped to Mexico to be repaired, refurbished, or recycled. All brands have had their issues.. recalls, whatever, but still... -------------------- "I dreamed a lot when I was younger.. I'm older now but still I hunger For some understanding.
