Are you the one paying for it? Also the man asked for what the best "mac" is, so are we to suggest Dells and HPs?
It's true, a teenage girl could accomplish the same tasks using a $400 Walmart computer, but there is a massive difference in quality. I had my old MacBook Pro for nearly 7 years and it was still working like new the day I sold it (for nearly $400 nonetheless, great resale) before buying something new. Whereas every cheap, bottom shelf laptop my family has bought has been worthless plastic within 2 years.
A Toyota gets you to work just as well as a BMW can.
That's fine and my fiancee's 3 year old Macbook is a piece of trash, and my last HP lasted 5 years, so your experience isn't necessarily universal. You're also comparing one machine that is 3x more expensive ... it should last longer by definition.
That all being said, I'd take my Lenovo Yoga 3 over a MB Pro, straight up. First time I haven't thrown in a price qualifier in that statement. The Yoga 3 is the best PC laptop I've ever had, it's brilliant.
