I currently have a Dell XPS M1210. I need a new battery and a new printer. The replacement battery got 1.8/5 stars on Dell's website and most reviewersclaim that it won't last more than 10 months. I have about 3 years left in undergrad/grad school. I've heard that the new Macs have good batterylife. Here are my options:
New Macbook + Printer for $800 (Special at my local student computer store.)
New Battery + Printer for $300. (However, it'd be an additional $175 every year if the reviews are accurate.)
Basically, I will spend more for the Mac if the battery will last 3+ years and the Dell battery won't. What are your opinions? Thanks.
