    The ultimate discussion.


    I have both a PC and a Mac.

    Overall, I think that Mac are better, because they have much better software, the look better, and are more powerfull.

    But thats not to say I hate my PC.


    Well, I do hate it, but thats not because its windows. I think windows are much better for games, and are cheaper.


    Please post your views here, but please include a reason, not just like:

    Macs pwn PC's

    Or something like that.

    macs are hellishly slow, and constantly crash.

    Ive been using macs for the past 4 years, so I have experience with them.

    ^those are with older macs, which i despise.. OSX is better than OS5 as XP is better than 3.1...

    Macs (although I personally hate them, so expensive) are better for webdesign and graphics works.

    Windows is better for gaming, mostly..

    Then Linux sits between the two...

    I was talking about OSX as well...OSX is almost as bad as OS9. Theyre both very very slow, and I always get friggin "unexpectedly quit" errors...I hate macs.

    maybe you need to update your system... I think you need a G4 in order to run OSX... I'm not a mac person, just guessing.

    you can always install Linux on a mac if you hate OSX so much...

    I have a 700mhz ibook, I guess it wasnt the most powerful of notebooks, but still, it was terrible. Its the nwer white ones...I got it 2 years ago.

    My 700mhz pc was ten times faster (not literally, but it was much better).

    for gaming id say go with a pc but if ur using photoshop, 3D designing, applications... etc etc then get a mac. they never crash, their immune to viruses, and their rlly powerful.

    not really... they found a virus on macs a few months ago...

    It's not that they are prone to viruses, its just that the majority uses windows, so virus makers go toward Windows...

    I love my G4, more than most windows PCs. It almost never ----s up except with the disc drive.

    yeah, and that was awhile ago... in 5 years, you could come up with a virus for Mac...

    I agree, Linux/Unix are prone to viruses only because hackers do not go toward that OS region. they usually create viruses on a Linux machine, anyway...
