    Thing is, though, that "Bootcamp" (partition your HD to run Mac and Windows, separately) is very intuitive and simple to set up.

    I love my macbook. I grew up in a family that exclusively used apple products -- waaay before they became as popular and widely used as they have in the last decade. I've never owned any other computer and I don't have any complaints. c:

    I think its just all preference. You pay more, but then again Mac does have superior battery life than anyone else. But if its like a desktop i would still go PC, but for a labtop go Mac. Then again thats just my preference

    I use my computer for 70% games and 30% internet so I just like to have high specs with a good graphics card. The one I use right now is pretty good. Unfortunately there expensive, macs are more expensive though so I don't think mac is very good.

    you cannot say mac not get virus, there is virus for mac, so..
    Mac is better for photo/video editing and have an amazing interface and optimization BUT for Apple things and WORK things, you can play on Mac, thats true, but maybe you can have a better performance on a normal desktop.

    For me, if you want to "play hard" go with PC, if you want something to work and have the budget, Mac.

    Macs are overpriced crap. Anyone with half a mind of computers would know how to prevent viruses.

    Any PC is crap unless you build it yourself or you buy a good one. Mac is not superior as it depends on the CPU and the Video Card for certain situations. If working with big files then RAM also comes into play.

    A Mac running VMWare Fusion with Windows/Linux is golden.

    Mac interface is faster and smoother. Windows has more programs

    No viruses are because not as many programs are compatible. And less people use it so they do not try to create them for it. Not because the software is more superior. Not worth paying outrageous prices for at least.

    Never been a fan of change and since I've been a pc user my whole life, I never really understood the appeal of the mac.
