No way in hell. jadegirl's MacBook got bought in August '07, and by August '08 had suffered three catestrophic failures -- it's now on its third hard drive and second logic board. Dealing with Apple tech Support is always a nightmare, requiring a trek to inconvenient locations, and a long wait for someone to tell me they can't perform a 5-minute part swap in under 24 hours... maybe.

By contrast, I'll have had my Dell XPS for five years this January. The one time I needed tech support for someting I couldn't fix myself, a man came to my door the next morning and Just Fixed It.
