Depends what size you want and what infrastructure and price range you are looking for. The ipad is of course the industry leader but like most apple products the OS infrastructure is quickly becoming outdated. The Nexus 7 is the best small tablet (if you are looking for a 7 in tablet), it's also great in the fact that in runs just over $200 and definitely one of the cheaper tablets on the market. If you want a large android tablet then look no further then the Google Nexus 10 or the Samsung Note 8 or 10.1. Finally if you want a tablet for a business environment with included word and excel and the ability to run PC programs then you may check out the Surface Pro (although it's a lot more expensive).
As a PC fan yourself, there's several Windows-based tablet out there. Unless you feel like trying something new, you could go the Android root. Personally, I'd steer away from anything Apple (iPad).
If you want a stable tablet without any work, get a Nexus 7 or 10. Whichever size fits you better. If you want a very good value tablet that you have to do some work for, get a Nook HD+. Then follow these instructions to wipe the stock OS and install CM 10.1. For about $175 you then get a stock Android, 9 inch, full HD tablet. You won't find a better deal/ Personally I did the second option and love it. The new Nexus 7 is a great value, but I didn't want a 7 inch tablet. I looked at the 10 but it's way overpriced.
My price range is slightly over 200$ and Ill be using it mainly for watching HD movies, light gaming and web browsing if it has a 3G connection it will be great

Best choice would probably be the new nexus 7, but that only has WiFi. If you want 3G/4G/LTE service, then you'd probably have to go with a Galaxy Tab/Note on contract from a cellular provider
Except they're not terrible? What's the alternative? The nexus? Why would I want to use a tablet named after one of the most illogical plot devices in science fiction movie history?

You got it...the Nexus is a great alternative, but it's all opinion really. I just don't think too highly of Apple and their products.

I concur with the Nexus 7, but yeah no 3G/4G yet. They do intend to come out with one later, but you will be getting close to the $300 range.
Stay away from Apple products, first and foremost.
The Nexus line (7 and 10) are both very good tablets and reasonably priced.

The Ipad is in no way a bad product, it's just a tad expensive. I don't understand why apple is hated so much.Yes! their products are expensive, but the quality isn't an issue.
The ipad is a great tablet. If I were in the market for a tablet I'd get that one.
