But if your just a regular user you should stay with a pc you might not enjoy so much the experience with a mac cause your not used to the new format. But like i said it depends on you.

Bought a Mac laptop, tried it for 3 months and just didn't enjoy the experience .. sold it for almost the same price I paid for it so I guess that's the one good thing I can say about a Mac, they certainly hold their resale value better than a PC.

Hilarious. Even though it hurt my pride, I must admit that it is indeed a very creative way to use iPhone. Hahahah! Hilarious.

Just buying an iPhone or iPod (both of these devices are bought by many people who don't own a Mac) doesn't make you stylish per se. It's like the Dutch saying: al draagt een aap een gouden ring, het is en blijft een lelijk ding. Maybe people who like to watch and shake boobs around on their iPhone are in fact Windows-users with a Mac-complex? Wouldn't surprise me! :-) The thing with style is, is that you either have it or you don’t.

I ended up joining them though after a summer developing on a G5 though. Strictly performance for cost, Macs are outdone by PC. The value as I see it lies in OS X though. It's a very concise operating system, everything from the brevity of popup messages (and lack thereof) to the elimination superfluous OK buttons. There's also the lower level elegance not found in other *nix systems, like how everything is configured via XML files (unlike linux's clusterfuck of syntaxes) and how launchd replaces both cron and BSD-style startup scripts (and launchd daemons are just XML files as well). Most apps judiciously consolidate resources, iChat, Mail and iCal for example share a system-wide contacts database (Addressbook), while Keychain stores passwords for websites, SSH accounts, PGP keys and other secure data sources. Time Machine makes backups trivial. I could replicate most of this functionality in Windows with a hodgepodge of 3rd party apps, and deal with the manual updating and reinstalling that come with every disk wipe, but what if I don't want to? I'd really just like a computer that I can use without tending to. I used to think that way about Mac users as well, and I guess still do.
