I personaly prefer my XPS 1330 over all the MAC notebooks.

There is nothing wrong with a MAC, they are good machines and I understand why some people like them (I also understand why some people don't). To each his own, however, in a corporate environment the user doesn't have that luxury (typically).

My main issue centres on the lack of decent corporate support. I was just with a collegue who was looking at MAC's as possible notebook replacements for their environment. The first thing I told him to ask about was support. As soon as the rep answered him the MAC's were no longer an option.

He wanted next day repair and possibly same day for senior management, these options aren't available (so we were told). Typical turn-around is 2-3 days, possibly a week or longer if parts aren't available. This just isn't good enough for a corporate environment, well at least the one I manage and the ones I know about (a lot).
