Macintosh vs. Microsoft (Computers)

[FR.]

I made this topic so we can have a mature discussion about the 2 main computer companies: Macintosh and Microsoft (computers). Which do you think is better and why?

RULES:

1. Respect everyones opinion
2. Only constuctive critisism
3. Talk in a mature manner
4. No flaming or bashing other members
5. Stay on-topic.

**If any of those rules are not obeyed, I will asked for the topic to be locked.

EDIT: Forgot to say which I prefer: I prefer Macs due to the fact that it has less bugs and has better support for Photoshop & Motion.

Strange why they call it the PC (Personal Comoputer) then...but yeah, I agree.

[wii_cammy]

yes but macs have a comforting homy feel
and my pc is a big clumpy thing for an office
(even though i love my pc lol)

Maybe SOme rep for my postsd??? lol

I prefer Windows

WINDOWS

Pros:
Theres more options in a sense of customization
Faster
Better access to Games, [Some games are Windows Only]
Can be cheaper

Cons:
More Virus'
Can be dearer


Macintosh

Pros:
More user friendly
Can be cheaper
Better access to Media related programs [I take Media so this is important - Items such as Editers]
All round easier to work
They all come standard which is good for Games, You will always have the specs for it

Cons:
Bad access to games
That damn bar everytime you hover over it []
Seems to crash more even though it doesn't get virus'
Harder to transfer files
iTunes isn't as good as Windows Media Player
It's hard to customise hard-ware [They all come standard]

All these Points are based on my Personal experience. I prefer Windows although I see how Macintosh can be good

I prefer Macs because I like to design stuff using advanced programs like Motion, Photoshop CS3, iMovie which are all Mac-friendly and easy to use (if you know what you're doing).
