    I think you're going to need to be more specific to get an answer to your question. What do you need the answer for and how will you use the answer? What do you mean by advantages and disadvantages?

    Following is based on my experience - I've shopped at both sites for computers.

    Assuming you mean for both of them, the advantage from my perspective is you can put together the system you want without unwanted attention from a salesperson who half the time doesn't know what he/she is talking about. Both sites are reasonably well organized, but I'd say Apple Store has the edge. The number of options available for customizing on the Dell site can be overwhelming for the customer, and it's not that easy always to find a specific system you're looking for. You also have a physical location where you purchased your computer and can take it to if you purchase at a brick-and-mortar store.

    On the negative side, some people want to see what they're buying. I usually go to my local store to look at & try out a model I'm considering, then purchase & customize it online. Though sometimes I'll buy in the store: things like iPods, printers, etc. but I personally prefer purchasing computers online.

    Well, for Dell it's the overwhelming options noted above. The Apple Store doesn't always have the best set of peripherals and accessories, so I shop for those elsewhere typically. It's pretty much the same situation for the Dell online store.

    I think what you want is for people to do your homework for you and we don't do that here.

    Thank you, but I don't ask you.

    First, I ask the others.
    Second, I think this is the name of this web site." Ask me help desk"
    So, this web site for asking and answering.. Am I wrong?
    Finally, I want to tell you my teacher ask us to take people's opinion.. are you mind?

    I agree with NeedKarma. In fact, I almost posted and said something myself, and now that one person has already posted, I'm going to defend that position. You "ask the others" because you don't like the fact that NeedKarma actually posted an ethical position. The fact that we're called "ask me help desk" is not the same thing as "come get your homework done here for you." Do you get the difference between the two?

    The idea is to help people understand their homework and try to learn from that, not just have other people answer it for you.

    Therefore, there is nothing wrong with what NeedKarma said, and no need for you to have that attitude.

    If your instructor said you could get other people's opinions, you not only could have said so, but your reply to NeedKarma could have politely stated this fact without the attitude and getting upset.
