Depends on what you are going to use it for and what your preferences are.
I like Macs so I'd say go for the Apple (which can also run XP using Bootcamp if you really want to) but it's more about preference than anything else.

Depends on what you need to use it for. Apple's are very reliable and parts are specifically made for it to get the best performance in terms of video editing and graphics. Dell's can be custom built, but are not as reliable as Apple's. Dells are usually Windows based, and Apple's are better suited for their own OS-X, although they are now making Intel-based Apples.

It really depends on what your going to use it for. If your going to use it for graphics, music, or production Apple is better. If your going for gaming, office use, etc. Dell is better. Though now Apple is able to run Windows using a program called Parallels, with that you can run the versatility of programs with Windows and use the quality of Apple. As for life span, service assistance, and general upkeep Apple is better for the average user. Though this is only my opinion, other people's may differ.

Apple uses the McIntosh operating sustem, and Dell uses Windows operating system. Dell is the best value for the money in my opinion.
