Not only that, but MAC's are more possessive than a PC. You can buy a mouse, keyboard and monitor from almost anywhere and almost any mouse, keyboard and monitor providing they have the right cable types, work on ANY PC! Where as a MAC doesn't, you have to buy own MAC products, which is rather crappy.

What about other OS? Linux, Unix?

I personally have dealt more with PC though when I go off to college I plan on getting a powerbook. I'd have to say though from what I've seen and heard from friends, I think in the near future I'll be more of a MAC fan that a PC one.

That about sums up my reasons for PC > Mac.
