Answer 2

Mac. There are certainly a lot of misconceptions about the Macintosh among PC users. They will tell you that Macs are out of date or they lack software and market share... This is all hogwash. Apple is currently experiencing an explosion of Macintosh sales, thanks to the Mac's new Intel processors and it's ability to run Windows natively alongside Mac OS X. Everyone already knows that Macs are easier to use, but even though they are easier to use, that doesn't mean they lack advanced operating system features. After all, Mac OS X is based on UNIX. It's Mac's UNIX underpinnings that make it less vulnerable to malware, not it's "lack of market share", as PC users will tell you. Here's a technical article to explain this.

PC users will also tell you that there is a great lack of software for the Macintosh. PC users are accustomed to seeing hundreds of software titles on a shelf, all claiming to do the same thing. There may be a million different photo editing applications, but how many of them are any good? Two or three? Simply put, crap doesn't survive in the Mac market. I've been using Mac for over two years now, and I have yet to find a task that my Macintosh can't handle, whether it's working with Microsoft Office files or communicating with PC users. Even if there ever was anything that Mac couldn't do, it's all irrelevant now, as Macs can run Windows XP, either in a dual-boot setup or right on top of Mac OS X. The only thing I couldn't do on my Mac was play Team Fortress Classic, a Half-Life game, but not any more. Whenever I want to play TFC, I just boot into Windows XP. It's the only thing I use Windows for. Other than that, my Mac handles everything else, from writing/recording music to editing photos and videos. Yes, Macs are more expensive, but not in all cases. The new Mac Pro is $1,000 less expensive than a similarly configured PC from Dell. Apple is working hard to drive down the price of the Macintosh and they're doing a wonderful job. Macs are beautiful machines. Comparing them to a PC is like comparing a Porsche to a Kia. It's all a matter of what the user wants. A lot of people are now deciding that they'd rather own a Mac than a PC. Apple's notebook sales have doubled since the release of the MacBook. Apple's stock is now at an all time high and it's mostly due to rising Mac sales, not the iPod. One analyst even believes that the Mac will see a 40% market share among home users by 2016. Then again, there are still a lot of people who are blinded by the world Microsoft has created for them. I won't be buying another PC as long as I live.

The user eek is just plain wrong. All Macs now ship with the Mighty Mouse, which is a multi-button mouse. In fact, you can use any multi-button mouse with Mac OS X, as well as mice with scroll wheels. They function the same way as the do on Windows. If you right click, you get a menu with various options. Also, you almost never have to restart a Mac. The only time I've had to restart a Mac is after a major system update, such as the update from 10.4.7 to 10.4.8. Even if, heaven forbid, an application were to crash, it will not harm anything. You'll be presented with a window asking you if you'd like to report the error to Apple, close the application or re-open the application. The only application that ever crashes on me is Safari, and it's usually while I'm viewing a poorly made MySpace page.
