afam4eva: I also need a very strong laptop for programming and other intense stuff.

oga what are you doing that is so intense

ikp4succes: mac book are for graphic designers, dj, anything visual is to easy to use. linux is for advanced user, windows is for semi advance , y mac is for ordinary user. in short most girls use mac.

Since you don't use one, you can't really appreciate the power of Macs. Don't let us start another Mac vs PC war.

I use Mac because:

- It is Unix-based OS
- Terminal is a bash shell with all the standard Unix utilities (Putty + Cygwin + Powershell etc)
- It has built-in SSH!!
- It comes preloaded with software that works great with Unix: SVN, PHP, Apache2, etc.
- Great Interface - you can't beat the usability of a Mac.
- No processing issues or memory issues
- Easy Migration without having to call 911
- It offers the flexibility of installing Windows using Parallel Desktop, VMWare, and Boot Camp. The day you install Mac on windows successfully without glitches, you'll definitely have more converts.
- STABILITY. I have 3 windows laptop (Lenovo Thinkpad, HP Pavilion and Toshiba Satellite), Guess where they were now? Computer Village
- Now, there's cloud.

Bros, tell me all the above stuffs are girls things.

Here we go! Biafra war 1960 : No mainframes in naija but everywhere except you(mainframes are out dude!), illiteracy for all of us into writing code think cobol! No intelligence into fabbing or small talk 1980(since)! Importance of objective C code wasn't there think mac computing to build and successfully deploy a stable algorithm for compute ready execution! THAT IS WHY YOU COULDN'T. DADDY IBM WASN'T THERE! UNTIL YOU ENTERED USA. But even some European countries don't even warn you about macs. They sell you other things even in this generation to kill you into illiteracy anyways. So go home and read your books yourself ooh God poor boy! I HAD TO SEE IBM AND ALL PERSONALLY thats what they told me back there abroad in Europe for not coming on time! And I didn't there until I entered naira then there is you thinking....like a a nerd .

What can we say? BUY A MAC BOOK or something because the stack is complete. THERE IS NO STACK OVERFLOW IN THE CODE. YOU CAN ONLY WRITE IN CLASSES: STABLE FRESH BEAUTIFUL STINKING RICH PLACES. Want to note in assembly and C? you needed smalltalk and all. NOOOOOWWW! HOW CAN I MONOPOLIZE IT?

NEVER FIND IT IN YOUR GENERATION. NEVER EVER BAKE A TRANSISTOR IN YOUR LIFE! YOU WERE AN OFFICER TO BEGIN WITH? DO YOU CRIMINALIZE YOUR STATUS?

OOH I MADE GUNS..YES ME IBM AS WELL. I SELL IT. IF PEOPLE SHOOT YOU FOR copying a stack of cobol code..(into billions of it) it is because you just had a small portion into a math library elsewhere or something to write into all that million of years of delay after all you didn't come on time to code with all of us!

Most programming languages are just a form of cobol! If you code into it your library will show everywhere in the whole earth!

Do you note into mathematics like a scientist? some people just figures as well! Think hard and you wouldn't think why am i active now!

Yes even hackers can steal it there!

WTF is this?

quote it again! Sorry I had to let it out! You are going to pay for software soon! Yes because libraries are expensive! That is all! (well you didn't come on time) Hush! We'll have plenty of time to talk!

Look I was in school. I didn't finish my studies but I couldn't wonder there until our nation was in there like as if your classmates elsewhere were astonished at how you didnt pay attention!! I'm 27 almost 28 years old and we are in 2012 in this generation, think about this! You could! Principles of writing code and all was what I recited until I figures me!! And yes I loved it because it challenges you to pay attention in school!

I AM CRUDE. Eagles carry-go in here!

^can somebody write a ruby code to translate that to English? Pretty please!

HP dv6, the best so far.

How is the Compaq CQ57 2.2ghz Processor, 4gb ram, 500gb HD for programming?

ebamma: buy i had no shoes(IHNS) laptop,its the best laptop for programming u to aso rock,but if u want to make money from programming go for femi otedola marked dollars(FOMD) laptop.

@OP, I think this machine should serve the purpose. Remember, you'll need to upgrade in 2 - 3 years time.

Bros I hope dis system is a new one?
And plz why not take d 70k cos dats all I can afford now.

Nigerians. You never cease to amaze me with your talent at showing crass stupidity sometimes. A guy comes along with a silly question (which is ok by the way, cos it's quite obvious he's a noob at it), and instead of you putting him right, you started giving him the stupidest answers I've ever seen. To the extent that many were recommending laptops meant for hardcore gamers. Are you guys for real

@tedjazz, permit me to answer your question with one of mine. What does a programmer need to have on his/her laptop to be able to write programs? A text editor and a translator, right? That's basic. If you want to go hardcore as a programmer, you'll probably be needing a decent IDE. Lets assume you'll need an IDE (and am going to assume you'll be working with either java or one of the .net language suite) so we're talking about either Netbeans or Visual Studio. If you check, you'll find out that those two apps don't need any SPECIAL system to run, infact they can both run on any laptop in the market that is at least 5years old. And I hope by now, you'll probably realise how stupid some of the answers you've been given here sounds.

Its a used system, a new one of this specs is more expensive than the amount I gave you

Feels like your falling from the sky! You're in the toilet to
poop there!

Dont throw garbage at yourself!

swipe it!

@henryskywalker thnks for answer.... But does dat include mini laptops cos i knw der processsors are slow...

Just look like if you copied this info and dumped here on this forum. Yes mac is very good i didn't argue with you, mac computer, they make it so good so that you don't have to worry urself fixing your computer. Do you see what a girl does when her computer is not working? You don't want that so they make is as easy as possible so you don't break ur computer. I think you should use Linux, then see the pain of using an operating system.
