Right, I'll be buying a new laptop within a couple of months, and naturally the mac vs. PC dilemma reappears. First of all, if you read the title and ran off to 4chan to find a "LOL NO RIGHT CLICK" or similar image, and now have its address copied on your clipboard, please refrain from pressing ctrl+v. Thanks. Also, fuck off.
Right, now to my preferences and usage. To be completely honest - call me gay, whatever - I care about the exterior of my laptop, I enjoy nice designs and therefore I do not want a Lenovo ThinkPad. Secondly, I rarely ever play games anymore, and if I do it'll be Football Manager (available for mac) or a source engine game - which, afaik, are/will soon be mac-ready. However, I do use a sports trading software that is 'windows only', and thus we arrive at my first question: Is there a Wine (Linux) equivalent for macs, that enables the use of Windows programs without having to bootcamp? And if so, is it any good?
As for price/performance, it's obviously something to take into consideration. It's not top of the list for me, priority wise, and I'm really most interested in the Windows v OSX comparison. However, it's not something I'll ignore, so if someone wants to explain exactly how much better a windows-based laptop would be hardware wise - go ahead.
Cheers
