http://bit.ly/bhvjxz In order to assist me in choosing a new laptop, and in the decision between Windows based and Mac based laptops, I decided to do a side by side analysis of the features of both machines. Subjective considerations such as style,feel etc. are not considered.
The online,publicly available Configuration tools were used to configure each machine. The Dell XPS 15 beat the MAC in 8 of 17 categories. The Macbook Pro beat the Dell in 1 of 17 categories. In the remaining 8 categories the two machines were identical, or there was no discernible advantage in the features of either one. With similarly configured machines, the Dell XPS 15 costs USD2,463.99 The Macbook Pro costs USD3,997.95 The Macbook Pro cost 62% more than the Dell XPS 15, which beat it in 8 of 17 categories. You can view the comparison table yourselves, and if I have made errors I'll change it. View the table here http://bit.ly/bhvjxz (You may have to zoom it a bit for it to appear clearly on your monitor.) Qualitatively, the choice should be obvious. Of course, if one is making a purchase these may not be the configurations one chooses. Even with a payment plan, US2,500 is a LOT of money for a laptop. But what is true at this 'high' end for these machines, is true at the low end as well. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:329912 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/unsubscribe.cfm
