Same here, I only prefer the PC at the moment because I'm more familar with it. BUT I am very interested in getting a Mac soon, I would be using it for movie editing and general work so no games really which highlights the problems of compatibility with the Macs.

My first three computers were PC's ... always had problems with viruses and downloading the new virus patch....which made things to be even worse...but the games were good.....through high school i was in tv productions and it was all mac's senior year the teach got a wish list and on that wish list was four power mac G5's i literally could not take my hands off these machines...all of the years we were using imovie and garage band...not we got to use soundtrack....final cut pro...i missed that to much and went out and bought me one .... BEST THING I HAVE EVER DONE !!! (KNOCK ON WOOD) i have yet to have a serious problem... tho i was a serious gamer online... not to many new releases for mac...so just went to my PS2 and everything was fine... but i def recommend the MAC if you walk into a apple store im telling you, you will want one.... not just a power mac but the lap tops, and other awesome computers....not to mention the ipod..... seeing that i was used to the mac setup it took a while for my parents to get used to it.... seeing that there computer just got fryed by something .... but my next purchase is going to be a IBOOK

*another thing* when you buy a new comp at the apple store you might as well get the microsoft office...being in college it really comes in handy

PC. It's simple. I know how to use it and most games and software is available on PC.

Now Apple is good for video editing but I don't do that. Apple also has that annoying "eep" "Quack" sounds that drive me nuts.

I am a PC guy it is what I know... But, I think the design and interface on the MAC are far superior... The problem is the amount of software developed for the Mac blows donkeys...

PC all the way. The only time I would ever be caught dead using a mac is when Im at the school library or editing video. Final Cut Pro is the shizz and I think they should make it for PC.

I do not know how to use Macintosh products. I have seen a video of a guy that tears one up because it gets on his nerves. I would probably be in the same boat with him! lol

PC all the way. The only apple product I use is the iPOD. Other than that I think its an ok company.

I prefer the PC without a doubt when it comes to gaming.

This is the ProGamerForums.

ProGamers use PCs.

Artsy people use Macs.

It's really that simple.

There are nearly no games for Macs. The argument that there are a few, or there is emulation, is really null. However, if you have the cash and want to do both, putting in Bootcamp with an Intel Mac (Macintel), is completely feasible. You can turn your computer off, turn it back on, and pick which you want (Mac or Windows). This is dual booting.

Also, you can google for OSx86, in order to run OSX on your Intel PC (the one you're on now, unless it's an AMD).

Programming + Gaming = PC for me

I've never really liked mac's too much and they don't have the greatest software library in the world. Not to mention they are as expensive as hell for what you get and the peripherals suck. I wouldn't mind using one if it was free but for now I like PC's. Although if I had a choice for a laptop I would get a mac book pro, too bad they are 3x as expensive as a similar laptop that's non-apple...

PC without a doubt

I've never used a MAC before, but I can't comment on something I've never used, but I've heard that they aren't worth the money.

I like my PC. Mac is grfeat for graphic stuff but just has too many restrictions..
