[QUOTE="BlueOvalAvenger, post: 2124692, member: 23615"] As some people have already said...obviously PC is more common. One way to think about it is imagine PC as being an F-150 that you can drive on any road you want and imagine MAC as being a Ferrari that you can only drive on 15% of the roads. Both computers will do whatever you want them to, but MAC does perform better. The only problem with MAC is software compatibility. That issue is improving, but its no where near the level that PC is at. EVERYTHING is made for PC. If you are doing video editing, CAD, or any other image editing, MAC is the best. If you are looking for an everyday computer that you get online, check email, surf the web, play games or anything like that you are better off getting a PC, because of the software available. As far as viruses and things like that, yes..PC does get them more than MAC, but thats because most software isnt compatible with MAC. If you were going to go through the trouble of writing a virus would you want to spend all that time doing it for a computer that 1 out of 10 people use or would you write it for a computer that 9 out of 10 people use? I personally use a PC and I dont have any problems with getting viruses. Stay away from the porn and you shouldn't either. Internet Explorer is what is targeted by viruses and spyware, all you have to do is use something not as popular..such as Mozilla Firefox and you wont have that problem. In the end you just have to decide what is right for you. If you need the extra power for specialty things such as video and image editing, go with the MAC. If you are looking for an everyday computer go with the PC. Whatever you get will be able to do anything you want it to do, it just depends on you and your abilities with computers. Switching to a MAC from PC will require a learning period, you will have to "convert" to MAC's OS and get use to it. Not to mention the price difference. Macs are usually a little more expensive.
