Way to spark up the old Mac vs PC debate again... I use PCs more but here are the pros and cons in a nutshell at least as far as I know:

Mac

Generally are more stable systems then the PC.

Handles most memory heavy processes (video editing, 3D) easily without you needing to give it a tune up yourself.

You can count the various viruses for apple macs on one hand.

has a PC simulator so you can run PC only programs on it, the best of both you might say (not 100% certain on this since haven't tested it).

Has a tiny software library selection compared to the PC.

When things do go wrong with an apple Mac it's generally harder to fix then a PC or at least by yourself


PC

Has an enormous variety of software and to be perfectly honest is the system most developers consider first, since most companies use it (personally I consider this to be 3 good points rather then one).

When something goes wrong with a PC, unless it's serious it's generally easy to fix and/or recover data.

As a general rule PCs are more compatible with files originally created on a Mac then vice versa.

has countless viruses, trojens and spyware you need to protect yourself from if you go online.

Because PCs have so much variety with what they can do they get clogged up with crap easily, meaning system reinstalls and tune ups are needed to keep things working at top speed.

As with every other operating system developed by Microsoft you NEVER get their newest OS until the reviews say it's stable, because they always release them before they're really ready.

Although files being easy to recover is a good thing, it's also a bad thing too, the only 100% garentee you destroyed data is by destroying the drive it was put on or by giving it to a specialist data destroying company.


Jam it back in, in the dark.
