Mac users are dooming themselves to a massive viral outbreak. The whole attitude that we can't get viruses and thus don't need to worry will be their down fall when the first good mac trojan or mac worm is released.
Also willravel you state that mac comes with all this software and PC's don't but you seem to forget that microsoft is prohibited by the DOJ to put all the software on there. If Mac were to have the microsofts market share the whole Mac business model would be considered monopolistic and they would be shut down.
The PC instabilities and viruses by in large are due to 3rd party drivers. Mac doesn't have this problem because they don't have 3rd party hardware. Personally i'd rather be able to customize my own computer and upgrade it when necessary. Hell just yesterday I upgraded a 5 year old machine of mine to a machine that is better than mid range macs for under $300 (new MB, proc, ram, video card), buying it from Apple would have cost me a hell of a lot more.
