Open Question: Should I switch to Mac, please read whole question?

Open Question: Should I switch to Mac, please read whole question?

So in August of last year I bought a top of the line HP Laptop, it has the best Core i7, ATI Mobility Radeon Graphics (1 Gig dedicated) Windows 7, 6 gigs of DDR3 Ram, and it is a 15". But within the last week I have had my computer slow down to a point that I watch the words on my computer getting typed after typing them 3 seconds before. It has also had 2 thermal shutdowns as well and I have ran a virus scan with Malware Antibites and Shaw Secure and they both say I do not have a virus. This has made me think that i may want to upgrade/downgrade to a 13" Macbook pro because i am going to university next year and think I will be using my laptop for University alot more. So my question is, should i sell my PC and get a macbook pro? Here are the two computers i am looking at:

Also, which one of these is the better deal, im thinking the first one but im not 100% sure.

Open Question: Looking to buy a lap top mac or pc please help?

So I'm looking for a new laptop for school. I have never purchased one in the past so I have very little idea about what to get. so it has come down to the PC vs mac debate. I want an all around computer and i want to be able to game on it to with no lag sort of deal. I have asked around and people tell me that if i run windows on the mac then it will run PC games no problem but then i consider that for the price of a mac i could buy a top of the line PC I am also wondering if the graphics card in the current mac book pro is a good graphics card or is it just some default piece of crap. the games i wan to run if you are wondering are anything in the total war series to date and a few new games coming out in about a year or so for the PCs i was considering a dell xps 15 or some Hp one i forget what its called but it has beats audio i think its from the "envy" series.

so any help would be appreciated

Open Question: please help me!! i dun know where is the restart button of my hp mini 210 series?

Open Question: please help me!! i dun know where is the restart button of my hp mini 210 series?

Most computer come with one power button. If your computer is off, press it to boot your computer up. if your computer is on, press it to shut it down. Hold it for around 8 seconds for emergency shutdown in case your computer freeze (this way is better than unplug your power cord and get your laptop's battery out—this will harm your hard disk drive)…

If you don't like to press the shut down button to shut your HP down, just go to start menu and select "shutdown". Or… click on your desktop, then Hold down the Alt key and press F4, and select Shutdown.

Additionally, you may set the shut down button to tell your computer to shutdown/sleep/hibernate/do nothing by go to Control Panel, Power Setting, and change the "what does the power button do" (or something like that) option if you are running Vista or Win7.

Hope it helps you a bit.
