People who like the PC think the people who like Mac are wrong

They're both as good as their programmers can be, and that's not a very good selection.


EDIT: So, as will and was can be, The PC sucks as much as the Mac sucks, and the PC is as good as the Mac is.

I will list some Advantages/Disadvantages:

Mac
Advantages:
1. Have Good and often needed software built in
2. Simple UI
3. Rarely breaks down/Crashes
4. Takes A LOT to slow it down
5. Runs Windows if you really need to
6. lovey

Disadvantages:
1. Not many games really made to run on it
2. Expensive to upgrade (Depending on model)
3. Expensive itself

PC
Advantages:
1. Almost EVERYTHING Runs on it
2. Has most good games Exclusive for it
3. Started to make things look loveier
4. Most people native to the UI and Features

Disadvantages:
1. Crash often
2. Don't crash often if you have the more expensive ones
3. Need good hardware to get through without massive slow downs
4. Can get viruses (almost) anywhere
5. Hard drives get Fragmented often
Note: PC disadvantages don't happen to everyone, really only people that don't take good care of their computers or with low-end models.

And no, I did not mean to give PC more Disadvantages, I just posted what I could think about off the top of my head.

People will use what they like better. You decide this for yourself.

If you're a god damn handicap, of course you will get viruses.

A PC is like a motorbike, hard to master and fast.

A mac is like a tricycle, slow but easy for non-tech-savy people.

Instead of going into shades of gray, let's try to edge towards black or white.

I'd say that a Mac is better dispite it's disadvantages.

It depends on what you want from a PC computer.

Go with mac if you want a media center that even gradma can use.
Go with PC if you want a gaming center AND a media center, but they're quire hard to master.

Oh and off topic, PC means Personal Computer.

PC Computer? That's Personal Computer Computer :P

5. Hard drives get Fragmented often

Harddrive's get fragmented just by moving files, It doesn't matter what OS you have, it happens on mac too, They just don't tell you about it.

3. Need good hardware to get through without massive slow downs

Works on a pc with a 600mhz processor. Nobody uses a pc like that anymore.

Crash often

What?

[XRobo]

What?

Every maccigarette's excuse ( and steve job's excuse)

They download every loving virus and file on the internet and expect it to run.

they each excell in there own things

i would love to know what exactly a mac excels at that PC can not.


that theory seems to not only be in the minds of only mac people, but people with little computer knowledge.

funny coincidence

Implying computers can't run mac OS and do stuff any mac can do, at a cheaper price and better performance.
