Of course, this is my personal opinion and I have nothing against people that use MAC's. I just don't see the point of spending 3 times the $ for a mac.

It has almost nothing to do with the hardware that they put in the mac.. It's all the os, but with more popularity will also come more virii, spyare, malware etc.. The only real reason that Windows gets attacked so much is due to the # of people using PCs with a Windows OS. As soon as there are enough people that are using macs the people creating the virii and shit will start attacking mac. No computer is 100% safe from everything no matter what they try to make you believe.
Yes, I do wish that MS would finally make an OS that's more stable and secure, but we'll see how Windows 7 is.

EHHHHHHH Wrong!
You're showing your ignorance here. MACs are expensive because they use expensive hardware. Go look at what CPU and Motherboard a MAC uses, then go to newegg and look at how much they cost.
And we're not talking same "specs" we're taking same hardware. If you go to build a "comparable" PC, you can't just say "oh I put a dual core 2.0 GHz Intel proc in it, just the same as the MAC." There are dozens of variations of dual core 2.0 intel proc's, and the one's MAC use are not the piece of shit low end ones.
When you buy a MAC you are paying for the Hardware, not the OS.
Look it up yourself and educate yourself next time you try to open your mouth about shit you know nothing about.
