*Looks at Sims 2 box*

Well, to play The Sims 2, you'll need a PC with at least 1 GHz, a video card which supports DirectX 9.0, same for the sound card, a HD with at least 3.5GB, 256MB Ram, and an 8-Speed CD/DVD drive...

Dell is bad, they tend to break kinda easy and Dell upgrades cost an arm an a leg!
Mac is ok... but they just don't match the performace of a pc when playing games that demand a lot of memory a farily fast Frames Per Second ratio.

On paper a top end spec Mac matches that of a top end PC but thats just on paper that can be over done by the manafuctures.

Best bet is to walk into ya local PC shop and have a look around.... checking the prices and specs.... oh and while I'm at it... best Laptops has to be a thinkpad.

It's easier to just get a really crappy PC, don't get a Dell, they suck, and then upgrade the parts in it to play the games you want...Yeah, those were the minimum specs for The Sims 2 so you'll need all of that if you especially want to play that...

The cost for fixing Dells is really high, that is why they are crappy.
