3. ABOUT THE SAME. There are slightly more games for PC that are popular now, but the number is fast falling.
4. Instructions for Mac. Plug in and press power.
5. Yes, Macs are better looking than any other computer.
6. We have something called a dock. A dock can hold applications and links, much like a startup menu.
7. The fact that people don't know much about Macs, yet persist in continuing the lies.
8. I don't have to build a Mac, they come pre assembled.
9. Aren't a part of the Microsoft monopoly.
10. A meduim Mac can emulate Windows legaly.

1. Yes, they are.
They're also "missing" a mousewheel.
2. The fact that Microsoft provides updates on a regular basis shows the dedication they have into making their products as user-friendly as possible.
3. That's a lie, and you, me, and everyone else in the world knows that.
4. Exactly. You don't get a choice of quality for different components of your system. You're stuck with one colorful box of crap, and if you want something better, you either go get a PC or throw your Mac out and buy a brand new one. With a PC, you can have the same system for YEARS, and for $80 you can upgrade the storage memory; $20 upgrade the random access memory; $85 upgrade the video card. Sure as hell beats $2000 on a brand new non-upgradeable piece of crap. That's a hefty price to pay for not wanting to learn how to plug a few (labeled) things to the back of a PC.
5. Personally, I'd rather have an Alienware PC than a Mac. But that's just a personal measure of taste (opinion).
6. Are you talking about that long strip of unlabeled icons that stretches horizontally across the screen?
7. a) I know quite a bit about Macs. I've used them since Macs were first released, all the way up through high school in my graphic arts class. b) I haven't once lied about Macs. They ARE crap.
8. Read #4 about the "hefty price."
9. And that's one very small saving grace. Oh yeah, if you run Windows on your Mac, Microsoft still owns you.
10. Actually, there's a completely separate Windows MADE for Macs, because many find the Mac OS to be too cumbersome and lame to use, so they resort to trying to make their Macs as much like a PC as possible.
MOST IMPORTANTLY: Don't take this personally. It's just I know what quality is, and that's what I choose over paying a ton of money to skip a 10-minute hook-up process and throwing away an abundance of accessibility and ease-of-use.
