Apple laptop?
I currently have a HP desktop and wanted to buy a laptop. I was wondering if changing to an Apple would be a good idea. I need to be able to use Word though, and I am not sure if they are compatable. What are the major differences between Apples and Macs - things I would notice rather than technical specs.

Well basically the shortcuts on a mac are different than a pc, i too made a transition from a hp to a mac and i love it. You can always buy the word program for mac for some extra cash... its really worth im very happy with my decision.

yeah word works fine on macs, there really no big difference. except macs cant use many of the pc softwares, but most big ones are ok for macs like all the adobe, word, programs anyhow i think macs are better b/c they make everything from the hardware to the software to the case itself so i think its better equipped so they all work better and also it looks nicer too :D

get a normal laptop... and have Linux installed on it... Mac's are over rated, over priced, And over all ownership is more expensive you have to buy all the software to run on it and it is not cheap. Most computer manufactures now support Linux... Dell, HP, Compaq, IBM, Acer, Toshiba will all run Linux but they don't advertise the fact that they do... cause store get more for promoting and selling Windows Vista.. check out the web links below. and see for yourself click on the you tube link first and watch the video clips and you get a office package that is better than MS office 2007 with all the same features,,,, Open Office 2 which is free check out the web links below

good idea, getting a mac. you really should. there is Microsoft Word for Mac (the latest is 2008 version). if you really need to, you can install windows using the built-in bootcamp feature and use Word on windows OS. There is no difference between Apples and Macs. one might say that macs are a branch of Apple. Apple is the company that makes Macs, among other things such as ipods and iPhones.
