<p>Anybody who is saying an Apple is better than an Asus is an Idiot because Asus makes the majority of Apple products. Including all macbooks and all Ipods.</p>
<p>Just because you have never heard of Asus, doesn’t make them bad, isint it true that enthusiasts truly know what’s good and the average consumer buys the crap products. High end audio, high end cars it’s the same all around. Asus is a Major company. Take a look that for every computer on this planet 1 of every 3 of them has a motherboard made by Asus. That is a Monster number and it shows the quality of there product.</p>
<p>Apple makes a very aesthetically appearing unit, though there support is horrible and the units tend to break rather easily. They have no customer service, it is 100% written rule with them. Which is fine, but I like for a company to do the right thing even if it makes them take a loss. Apple is the only company ive ever seen do this.</p>
<p>Dell seems to be a Favorite now, but there systems are honestly crap, sure they used to be good, but they are only alive due to reputation now. I see a lot of dells at work (I work at Circuit city as a PC tech), about 3/5 of the computers I fix are faulty dells. The term (Dell= don’t ever last long) holds very true, if you were to ask me. The support is horrible as you will only talk to Mr. India. The quality of there systems is also quite poor, very weak systems made with very cheap components.</p>
<p>HP & Compaq makes a truly great system if you were to ask me, I see them a lot in CC and set them up for folks a lot. I find there support to be very good, but its still India. In terms of retail stores Hp or Compaq cannot be beat.</p>
<p>Sony is a company who developed the aperture grille technology and that is there entire reputation. The quality of there products is decent. They rarely fail, which is a great selling point, they have very good quality control. The only problem with them is if they fail they are very hard to get fixed and the tech support tends to use a lot of loop holes and tries to refuse you service. A lot of the time they don’t have the parts and tell you that you are Sorry out of luck. They also come with a ton of software built in which sucks because they are slower at first.</p>
<p>IBM/Lenovo is the absolute best Notebook you can buy; there quality is the highest of high. They are built like tanks and looks very professional which is a plus. The IBM ThinkPad and think centre team is exactly the same before the Transition to lenovo as it is now. They are the same people and you will get the same support. Lenovo support is about the best you can get. You will talk to an American which is a plus. The service is great, they have plans such as in-site which they will have a tech to your location within 4 hours or 9 hours. They also have depot service in which the laptop is picked up and delivered to depot same day and then shipped out to you overnight that same day. The internal subsystem is also great for file recovery and such.</p>
<p>I would personally only buy an IBM/lenovo ThinkPad as a laptop because they are the best and I deserve nothing but. The quality is awesome and the service is even better. Nobody can dispute that there is a better and more reliable laptop than a ThinkPad. </p>
<p>But I love seeing people waste there money on piece of crap Computers, It gives me a Job.</p>
<p>Thanks guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!</p>
