yes, slick is right. If you want to use your computer for just gaming and only gaming, then PC is the way to go right now. But if you want reliability, go for macs, cause macs dont crash neither can it get viruses easily. So far, i havent experienced a single crash from a mac, and theres no need to buy an antivirus for it either.
Heres a comparison for you to decide quicker:
Windows media player VS Quicktime :
WMP has the ability to play divX, avi, mpg, wma, wmv, etc. Quicktime can only play MP4 and quicktime files. Now heres the good part, if you install "Flip4mac" then you have windows media player codecs on quicktime plus you get to play mp4 and quicktime files. On PC, if you want to watch quicktime vids, then you have to install quicktime (more programs on your computer)
PC VS MAC exterior :
mac wins, hands down
PC VS MAC interior:
you will find that all macs are up to date on hardware and destroys alot of PC's out there. But the thing is, most PC's comes with bigger capacity HDD, so unless you need 300GB to fill your porn, go for the mac.
PC VS MAC gaming:
yes, PC does have more titles in games. But mac does have the hardware for serious gaming and they will be getting good games from top of the line game companies in the o so close near future. Plus the apple website offers a few hundred free games (good quality graphics halo 2 style) for free.
PC VS MAC support:
currently, there is no legal way of running mac os x on a PC, but with a mac, you can run XP/vista and just about everyother os out there
PC VS MAC functionality:
alot of new PC's out there ship with vista, and vista is horrid, it promts you for just about everything you do, theres a way to fix some of it, but its annoying as hell, and the support of vista is terrible. if you were to get a PC, go for XP. MAC runs alot faster than most pc's without lag, programs just start when you click them, hardly any loading time.
I know i sound biased towards mac, but these are the reasons why i switched from PC to a MAC, everyone is entitled to their opnions right?
