HP is a company that makes and sells computers, and Mac OS is an operating system, like Windows or Linux.
Personally, I prefer apples over oranges. Unless they're juiced, then it's a toss up.

I will not say which is better that would take a lot of time weighing the pros and cons. I have looked at the new Macs with a critical eye (I'm a Windows user and have been since 95) I know some animators and writers who have used both platforms and have eventually migrated to Macs and stayed there. Most of these Mac-heads have, or are about to get the new Intel powered Macs, and I am as well. I was never much interested in making the switch and it was not just the learning curve on an new operating system but all the thousands of the dollars I spent on the software I'd have to repurchase for Mac. Well now I'm excited about the new Mac because I can run Windows on it and my software is still good. The learning curve will be easier because I can do it at a more leisurely pace since I'm running Windows on that machine as well I can get my work done without worries.
The only thing I'm going to do when I purchase the new Mac, is buy "Parallels" with that program you can run both OS X and Windows side by side. The "Boot camp" program that comes with the Mac makes you have to re-boot to change OS's.
The best of both worlds and I can't wait to get my new system.

Buy an HP, Dell, Compaq, Alienware, Sony, anything BUT a computer that runs MAC OS!!
Mac OS is terrible and useless. You will regret it in the near future if you get it.
