Apple Pros:

Hardware and Software designed by the same company - Seamless Integration
Virtually virus-proof and top notch design (beauty, thinness, etc.)
Comes pre-loaded with well built software
Works well with other Apple products (iPod, iPhone, iTV, etc.)

Mac Cons:

Much more expensive (a little less than twice the cost in most cases)
You have to use software specifically made for Mac
It is more difficult to buy parts/accessories

PC Pros:

Compatible with almost everything - software and hardware
Lots of competition, driving down prices and increasing number of options
More customization options available when personalizing or upgrading

PC Cons:

Very vulnerable to viruses, malware, spyware, etc.
Windows is not as stable of an operating system as Mac - i.e. more errors

  • @TheSeeker18161 read my message to 9BBang

  • @9BBang Alienware, desktop, not the laptop, or you could get your desktop/computer built the way you want, that way, you can always upgrade it to the best of the best, just like all the hardcore gamers do. Both are good choices.

  • We need a new OS

  • @9BBang get a pc.mac has pretty much no compatible games

  • Well, here's the thing about the "Quicken" thing. On a Mac, you can run a windows operating system. You'll have to buy it, yes. There's also 2 ways to do it. Bootcamp (at my school) where you hold a button at the startup of the mac and you click which OS you wanna use, or Parallel Desktop, which lets you run a windows OS on top of your Mac OS.

  • In a nutshell:

    Mac - for people who want something that just works, and/or people that don't know much about technology.

    PC - For people that know what they're doing, even though it's not all that hard to install an antivirus.

  • what kind of computer should i get for gaming?

  • what about gaming dude..u did not mention that

  • video flawed very flawed

    1.hardwhere,if you know what your doing you proboly want a windows (or linux for the pros)

    2. viruses nul and void since mac uses the same scipts and memory as windows
