Apple's Notebooks Take On the PC Competition

Dear Maximum PC People, i have been a loyal fan for six years and never readed an article so unfair like this, comparing under powerful notebook machines with poor optimization for vista againts a Mac Book Pro (really the mac is only a beautiful an expensive machine, is only fashion not power). Recently i bougth two Dell machines, a XPS M1730 plenty of power with the latest Intel Processor X9000 2.8, 2 hard drives 200 GB in raid 0 7200 rpm, LCD 1900x1200 full HD, 2 8800m in sli, 4gb ram and blu ray writer 2x; and a XPS M1330 with a 9300 intel dual core 2.5, 4 GB, dvd writer, led display 1200x800, graphic card 8400 gs 128mb, HDMI, 9 cell battery, HDD 360 GB and Wireless N. Both are beautiful, powerful, with an excellent service for Colombia (my country) and a very good price too (M1330 was cheaper than the Mac Book Pro or mac book in any configuration possible) 10/10. I think that vista (i have vista ultimate for both machines and my opinion is that is a very good operating system that only needs a powerful machine); for me Leopard is for housewifes, fashion people and adolescents).
Please excuse me about my rage against your editor but i believe in you, i learn about hardware with your magazine, an i feel that you editor was unfair and parcial with the Mac Book Pro. Steve Jobs is my hero but not for the PCs or Lantops, is my hero for the iphone and the ipods, for the marketing and the stores, but he needs to improve the hardware, change the prize strategy, open the leopard to PC customers and give us more for more.

In spanish: Amigos de Maximum pc he sido su fiel admirador y lector por 6 años, he comprado todas sus revistas y en ninguna vi una comparación mas sesgada y falta de criterio como la comparación de un Mac Book Pro (muy bonito y esteticamente agradable eso si), con maquinas de poco poder, que no estan optimizadas para Windows Vista. Para mi Dell es lo mejor pues te ofrece los ultimos penryn, con 4 gb por defecto en sus configuraciones, discos SDD y hasta blu ray. Yo recientemente compré un a XPS M1730 con un procesador intel dual core X9000, LCD 1900 x1200 full HD, Bluray writer, 4 gb de ram, dos discos duros en raid 0 de 200GB a 7200RPM, wireless N y 2 8800n GTX en SLI; y una XPS M1330 con un intel 9300 4GB de ram, disco duro de 360 GB, wireless N y pantalla de LED de 1200 x 800, a unos precios increiblemente buenos y con garantias y servicio excelentes para mi país Colombia. Por que no incluyen equipos de verdad en sus analisis¡¡¡¡¡. Vista es excelente pero merece maquinas poderosas, Leopard es para amas de casa.
Treason, put your editor in flames, directo to burn at the stake
