As far I am concerned, my first and last PC, is a Dell bought about 4 months ago. It was bought mainly for the kids doing homework and especially the oldest boy doing an online Japanese course through the Univ. of Alabama (we are in northern CO). I have also used it a bit. A side use was working with the boys on some entry-level programming and use with some PICs. Everything else now and in the past has been Macs. About a month after getting the new Dell, it crashed. I could not get the thing back up (having worked on them some at work, but mostly SUNs and VAXs). I called Dell support; thier only remedy was to rebuild the system. So, my son lost all of his first weeks' course work due to have to rebuilding the blasted thing. I'll stay with the Macs for any new ones. But, I have not been a big fan of the Redmond, WA source of OS and other software anyway even though I have multiple (legal) copies of Office in Mac (2) and now in PC (1) along with other application (Visio, Project).
