    By 'best' I meant speed, but you're entitled to evaluate the word 'best' however you want. I suppose a lot of apps and programs don't run on Mac so that's a huge downside.

    mac is high end stuff most people who hate mac have never owned one you can leave it running for three days and it will run perfectly


    Although Macs are high end stuff, they have a very high price, often out of budget for most computer buyers, and if they did have enough money, they would be getting a bad bargain. $1200 could buy you a half decent Mac or a pretty good PC. Macs are known as the "invincible" computer brand, invulnerable to viruses and "running for three days and working perfectly". I have tried and use Macs a lot, especially when I do tech help for my school and they are decent for basic movie editing and sound editing. Besides that, the clean interface hides the low power of a Mac. Most Macs are sold with 1-2 GB of RAM for $1000, while $2000 Macs have only 8 GB of RAM. With that amount of money, you could build yourself a very good gaming or performance computer.

    In terms of running for three days, almost any new computer can run for a week long, and still work perfectly. That makes no difference. I can take an old Windows 95 PC from HP and have it on for a week and it will still work. Overall, PCs are a good bang for your buck, giving you optimal performance for a good price.

    I prefer Windows 7, simply because Microsoft failed on Windows 8. No offense, but Windows 8 is more suited to tablet usage vs. Windows 7. Although Windows 8 is faster (generally), a Windows 7 computer, with a decent amount of RAM and processor can work as well as a Windows 8. Windows 7 is a good choice as to familiarity and general usage for longtime Windows users but also costs a bit more (roughly 20 dollars+). Apple can make computers, but is a waste of money if you want a performance computer, especially for gaming or making videos etc. Although Windows 8 "has the same desktop as Windows 7", it's a stripped down version, only allowing some features to be used, primarily pushing users to adapt to the new Metro interface.

    More to the point, it all comes down to your opinion on OS, it doesn't matter at all which ever you choose. Just remember to get a good computer for your pricing range, and as long as you choose a good computer, maintain it, it will work. Take note that most software for Windows 8 is not updated yet, and will take some time for normal software and programs to be set up for Windows 8. (Some companies have decided not to update to Windows 8, but most programs will)

    I not really sure but HP laptops are pretty good. The prices are roughly 500 (okayish computer) to about 1000 (pretty good). If you can afford a Mac, it's not so bad but Minecraft mods and applications are a bit trickier to deal with.

    Save up some more money and buy an Alienware computer. It's expensive but is REALLY good.
