I used to own a tablet PC. They're pretty cool if you like to draw, but they're only good for graphic design. Don't bother navigating your desktop with it or attempting to play games. They just aren't great for that. you're better off using your keyboard or mouse for that stuff.

Viruses aren't based upon the computer you purchase. You receive viruses from poor web practices such as going to porn sites, clicking pop-up adds, falling for phishing tactics, and downloading pirated software.

Good email browsers aren't hard to find. If you aren't satisfied with Outlook Express then you can always download Thunder Bird for free.

Good Design is a matter of preference. While most people can spot a solid design when they see one some people have a higher tolerance for "bad" design. This is for you to decide.

Just about every laptop these days has enough RAM under its belt.

Anyway, it sounds like you've been suckered into the rampant mac commercials and don't know what to look for anymore. What do you want to do with your computer?
