Are you in the market for a new computer? Otherwise I can't see the point of this thread. Both have their plus points.

Snowy Cat for me though.

You can't really compare the two. They the only difference is windows really needed windows 7 because of some horrible operating system called vista, while mac had leopard, a very GOOD operating system

personally I think windows 7 is a better OS release..
I still personally think SL is better, for me. But the jump from vista to windows 7 on the family computers was AMAZING. They all feel like brand new computers, even being a two+ years old, in fact some of the computers couldn't handle vista, but run windows 7 perfectly.

Yet my MBP from leopard, to snow leopard, still feels like the same computer. It's still my favorite computer in the house, but still I didn't get that, "Holy crap this changes everything" feeling I did from windows 7.

Good luck getting a solid response from this forum, people on here are pretty ignorant to technology advances, unless its got the "steve jobs" stamp on it.

yea I think it's 6 of one, half a dozen for the other...

I enjoy both! And that's just working off the beta for W7, I am looking forward to the release in a couple weeks.

Both are great, really wish I could combine a few things from each! that would be awesome!

I prefer Win7. Having not tried Snowleopard, I can't compare them. What I can comment about though is that Win7 is simply a clean OS. There is really no comparison of it and Vista other than the obvious GUI. Win7 has improved on that even. My computer has been cruising along on autopilot not having a single hiccup since I moved from XP to Win7. There was no way I was going to try Vista with all of the issues it had.

Win7 worked out of the box. The install was flawless and it even searched out drivers from the internet so I didn't have to do the footwork.

Dude trade your laptop for a MBP... its literally the best laptop i've EVER owned. 7 hours of battery life?!?

Think of it like this, Apple's laptop is so kick ***, you can install windows 7 on it stock, no modifications needed. Try installing snow leopard on a sony vaio...
