These arguments are a bit like should I buy the Honda Euro (which I did), the Mazda 6 or th BMW 325. When I was really young - is the Mini better than the VW bug. Who cares. They all have their good points and there deficiencies.
I have had HP laptops; Dell and many non-descript products. In this house we run a 3 computer network through a wireless LAN with quality parts but all home built. They all work incredibly well.
They are just computers - and laptops will last about 2 years before the keyboard collapses; the hard drive fails.
Expect to be in constant turmiol.
