 Macs are better than PCs because...
1. it's exclusive. as if Mac OS X could be enjoyed on an Acer or Dell or HP or a Toshi. It would be foul.
2. the elegant and sophisticated layout. We are the Louis Vuitton of the bag world.
3. Virus? for the mac. Never!
4. Leopard was just one plain release. Wtf is this Ultimate shit for.
5. If you're a whiny Windows bitch, you can still actually use Windows.
6. Connecting to wireless networks is plain and simple on a Mac.
7. The touch pads on the Macbook lines. The two finger to scroll genius. Plus there is moer things you can do with the Touch pads in the new versions of the macbook lines.
8. iLife.
9. MailApp
10. We are like so much more noticable.
11. our hardware is sexy. Vaios are the only computers that come to matching the coolness/sexyness of a Mac.
....
if you are a Mac user please add to the above. Bashing PCs is also recommended.

 Re: Macs are better than PCs because...
I just assisted someone in modifying a table on their computer. They were running Vista, and holy crap. I never interacted with Vista before and it is complicated.

 Re: Macs are better than PCs because...
12. iWork
Also, about wireless networks, I was once at a hotel trying to connect to the network and there was obviously something wrong. (It turned out that certain rooms were blocked for some reason. I could access it outside the door, but not inside.) I was on the phone with tech support trying to get it fixed, and he's telling me how to try to search for networks. I'm like, I'm on a Mac. So he said, "Oh, well, shit. Yeah, there's something wrong with your room. If your Mac can't find the network, it's not there."

 Re: Macs are better than PCs because...
15. the keyboards. Just great. Especially the new Imac ones which use the MacBook style layout. The MacBook Pro ones illuminate and the Air ones are easy to see.
the only slight problem with the keyboard layout is that the  key should be in the corner with the fn button next to the spacebar.

 Re: Macs are better than PCs because...
macs mawl. Windows coms will forever have nothing on mac, they will forever copy everything that mac does because they lack creativity.

Yeah, when you are switching between PCs and Macs, and trying to remember to use ctrl for shortcuts, it's a bit confusing, but I like this one better.

 Re: Macs are better than PCs because...
I'm seriously considering a MacBook. I'll need a laptop for when I start college in August, and MacBooks are super sexy looking.

 Re: Macs are better than PCs because...
The thing is my school uses Windows so having a Mac would be horribly uncompatible and lots of problems would surface.

Windows 95, 98, NT and XP really helped MS assert its dominance. Especially when it came to companies, governments and educational institutions. But ever since the iPod revolution has started, slowly by slowly people are turning to macs.

Most schools use Windows. I have friends in the UK and their schools also use Windows.

I'm convinced that a beta version of Windows 3.1 broke out of its cage and raped you in your youth.
