I have to admit....I feel more loyal to Apple than I do to any other brand
on earth - just after one experience like the one below. I have never felt
any loyalty to any pc manufacturer. Apple knows how to create customer
loyalty.

Apple = Best customer service ever.......
2 quick stories.......
Mine:
Bought my first Apple, a 24" iMac, on a Saturday. Took it home, up and
running in 10 minutes like normal for Apple, played with it all day Sat and
Sun. Sweet.
Went to work Monday and saw notices from Cnet, PCMag, ZDNet, etc, that
Apple just released new iMac's that day. Intel Core2 Duo processors, more
memory, larger HD's, etc.
Kinda thought and stewed all day, then called the manager at the store
where I bought mine, and asked, (politely of course), "Why didn't they tell
me on Sat when I bought mine that new ones were coming out in 2 days?"
Seems Apple does not tell them ahead of time so the sales associates don't
mess up sales...
Anyhow, he says "No problem, bring it back and we'll give you one of the
new ones.
So I did, they did, and all was cool. Faster CPU, twice the memory,
larger HD, new video, etc... same price.
Would IBM, Dell, HP, etc ever do that?
So now I have that 24" iMac and 2 Unibody MacBook Pros, a 13 and a 15
inch...
My cousin:
Pro photographer, used his MacBook G4 everyday for 3 years when the
video suddenly went out.
Long out of warranty, but he took it down wanting to pay to have it
repaired. Turns out that parts were no longer to be had for those older
G4's.
Apple then gave him a brand new 15" Unibody MacBook Pro just because
they could not repair his old one!!!!!!!!! All he had to pay was a 100
bucks cause he wanted the matte screen update.
Is it any wonder he and I are Mac users?

I am in the market for a laptop, something in the 15" range. Laptop
will
be used for general purpose stuff around the house, some gaming and
photo/video in a pinch. Not looking for an ultra portable or
anything
like that, would like decent battery life and hopefully be ~5-6
pounds, i5
processor (2nd gen). Been looking at Dell, Asus, HP, Lenovo and
Acer.
Too many choices! Any recommendations? Specific model or just a
brand
or two I should focus my efforts upon.
Oh,
