[QUOTE="chscag, post: 795733, member: 46727"] To the OP: I agree with bobtomay, you ran into an anti Mac salesman at Best Buy. Mac machines have enjoyed top ratings for years - hardware, operating system, and customer support. The latest ratings (which you can skim over in PC Mag, PC World, etc) show the Mac is still number one. Overheating? That's pure conjecture from the salesman. All notebook computers get warm because of their enclosed design, not just the MacBook. As for an extended warranty, you quoted the Best Buy warranty price not Apple Care. If you really want to find out if a Mac is for you, go to an Apple Store, speak with the sales folks, play with some machines, ask questions, and then decide. I've been associated with computers for many years, everything from Big Iron to Little Iron, used them, programmed them, repaired them, etc and I can say without hesitation that Macs are of the best.
