If you're arrogant, wish to overpay and are into graphic design, get a MAC. Otherwise PC.

Unless you're doing video editing or lots of virtualization, I'm sure the low end Mac is plenty for your needs.  Yes you pay a premium for Macs, but think of all the time and money you'll save not having to rebuild your system because of some virus.

No comparison, I ahve had mac for years now, have converted some die hard pc users, all have said they would never go back to pc after using mac.

If you can afford it, there is no choice to be made, go mac, don't look back!

If you don't know how to protect yourself with a half decent firewall and anti-virus, you should get a Mac. Old people, retards, etc.

I`ve never had a virus with a PC ever.  A PC can easily be built with parts now that will take MAC a decade to match in performance.  MAC=Garbage.

I got both. My MAC sits on my table practically unused. Love my PC. I do lots of technical stuff with my computer - MAC is not the greatest for that. But as I said in my first post, if you're into graphic editing - or generic computer using such as browsing the web, yeah.. MAC can be great. Got to love though how Jobs ass rapes every MAC owner with the inflated prices and they don't even complain.

I am a graphic designer/web designer/web developer and the pc does everything the mac can, and more, and costs much much less. Apple has good PR and that's about it.

If you want to see what designers/developers think, read the comments posted at the bottom of this Apple sponsored 'article'. This is from one of the top design community sites in the world.

There's nothing to brag about. Macs are easier to use, less prone to spyware, run with fewer problems, have better customer service, more consistent battery life, and a lot of other things. Got my girl a mac and it's outperformed the PC in every way.

There was a hairline crack in its case and warranty repairs didn't make me perfectly happy so Mac replaced the computer, gave us a new warranty, credited the extended warranty (pro-rated) to her mastercard, sent the new Mac Fed-Ex with a return tag, allowed us to keep the old one until finishing data transfer, and also upgraded her hard drive and some software to whatever the current model had going on. No other company is going to touch that shit on a polite phone call from me. :) They also called twice to make sure she was perfectly happy with the new computer and their service.

Viruses are probably too afraid of Chuck Norris to mess with his PC.
