Amen, brother!
2 years ago I went Mac and I'll never go back :p
Don't you people miss right clicking ?!?!?
I kid.
But seriously....
Don't you miss a good computer(specs wise)? Don't you miss upgrading your component(if you have an outdated graphics card but the other components are fine, you have to buy a whole new computer!)? Don't you miss GAMES?
My IMAC runs starcraft 2 like a boss. Wouldn't go back.

Because Starcraft 2 is so graphics intensive.
Do we really need to start this arguement...
Shhh listen it is the sound of noone carrying you guys are like the ps3 and Xbox fan boys
Ehh i disagree with the xbox vs ps comment. Mac vs pc is like comparing apples and oranges. I personally cant see spending 500-2000$ more for a computer that does less. I.e. Macs.. My gf bought her mac the same week i bought my pc. I paid 500 and she paid 1400.. I can run skyrim.. Her mac couldnt dream of running skyrim. Pc is a lot more customizable. She cant open her case without voiding her warrenty whereas i can. More so i started this to see what kind of users we have here
Idk I don't really miss updating and changing components and stuff. The Mac runs beautifully still, no virus' no slowdowns no problems. Plus the software it comes with is user friendly and extremely useful to me. I've used iMovie GarageBand iTunes thousands of times and have really impressed ppl with the quality of work I can do with them. The only computer games I play is WoW so that's no biggie. The ease of use won me over :)
I'll make it really simple for you. iMtG is made on a Mac.

Mac it is.
Macs are nice I am a pc person but they are nice but I can buy a decent car and pc for the same price
I think a PC is fine for a computer.
For a phone? Iphone. Music? Itunes. Hand half gaming? Ipod. (jk it's gameboy advance haha I had ya there didn't I!).
I like a pc. It may have viruses but I like it. :)

The connection? ??? (Dare I ask? Yes, I dare.)
I thought Apple was the Ideal Capitalist situation.
John Hodgman all the way.
Support slave labor (apple) I know I do

Cummunism works on paper.
In my experience I have found Macs are better for people who have a fiscal agenda, people who are trying to make money, or people who are in school. PCs are better recreational computers. They are better for gaming and customizable to the user's preference. Neither is worse by design. Just gotta ask yer self.... What am I gonna do with it?
In any corporate situation where you need an enterprise solution. Windows machine wins hands down. It's not what hardware it runs on (IBM Mac etc) it's the operating system that makes the difference.

Motherboards in PCs are made in the same or adjacent factories as Apples products as are pretty much every electronic device we own. I don't think that's a good basis of comparison.
I don't know how many times I've had this same conversation with many different people, and it always ends on the same conclusion. From what I've seen, they both have their strengths and weaknesses. Macs seem better at video/audio/photo editing and creating awesome things like iMtG! But, PC seems to be used for someone who is in to playing Skyrim, Call of Duty, etc (Me!!) and maybe using it for some lesser projects. Correct me if I'm wrong, but that is just the way I have noticed it. And hey, Starcraft 2 is amazing on PC and Mac! SC is awesome because it is SC, not because it is run on a Mac or PC ;)
Thing is, Mac is one whole cohesive product. All Macs of the same type will (should) be consistent. PCs are piece-mail assemblies from multiple different manufacturers. PC A could be very different from PC B. (Not all PCs are made equal).

And thats the beauty of both of them! You can make what you want of a PC, but a Mac will give you what you need to get by until things get more advanced, but offer more security.
Has anyone ever built a Mac?
I know plenty of people who built their own pc.

I see that as good and bad. Putting together a PC can give you driver problems, resource allocation issues, hardware incompatibility. A Mac was designed as a unit and works as a unit. It's behind in some ways because everything has to work as a whole. But I think you get something more reliable and consistent from a Mac. (to be clear, I swear no loyalties)

In that case, Go slaves go!
Personally I like using a PC because I prefer versatility over accebility. The superior operating system is Linux, that no one can argue.
And for all the posting that Apple is a communistic company, don't forget you are posting from an iDevice.

Linux is fantastic, but you have to be a bit more tech savvy to use it :P. My dad runs straight Linux. He hates everything else lol. I just use a plain old Windows Vista PC because it's easy.
For me it is more about the OS. I can't stand windows. It feels too bulky and cluttered. With the Mac OS it flows better and it's easier to find what you are looking for. Hardware isn't even an issue for me. The only game I play is Minecraft and it runs well enough.
Mind you, I can run Windows on my Mac. I actually do, mainly to run games on it - I was playing Diablo 3 that way. So the argument that PC is better for gaming is moot, as Mac is also a PC.
The other way round, not so easy - you cannot properly run Mac OS X on non-Apple hardware.
