We've had an hp for about 4 years and now it's slow as shite now.

Ah. Windows Rot. Do you do anything to keep it fast?

HP laptops typically have factory reset images. I bet if you do that it'll run like new. Uninstall the bloatware (pcdecrapifier, or revo uninstaller) and it'll be even faster. Lots of patches to download again, but I just did it to a Vista running laptop.

It's like new.

I'm not paying the Apple premium. I just got a 17 inch laptop for 350 (bigger than any macbook, I believe). If I need another one in three years (not likely), so frickin' what. I can buy three of them for the price of one MacBook.
