This was begging for a Mac/PC war. I appreciate those who didn't let the war get the best of them. The bottom line is what do you want the computer to do?
Do you like gaming? You probably should go with a quick PC. You like graphics, cgi, internet? Go with a Mac. Do you want to do programming? PC. Do you want it to look really good? Mac. Do you want to spend a small amount of money? PC. Do you want to edit or create video or audio? Mac. Do you have plenty of money to throw at it? Toss up. Do you require the most stable OS? Mac. Do you want the most common OS? PC. Do you want a fast computer? PCs and Macs have models that can go faster than most people will ever need. There is no "faster computer". I've seen a modified G5 tower keep up with the best Alienware has to offer.
Commom myths:
Macs don't have any games.
PCs are all cheap.
Macs aren't as fast.
PCs are just for gamers.
Macs are all expensive (see the minimac thread).
You have to chose one side or the other.
Mac will go out of buisness.
