Answer 1

Windows is now built on their NT platform, it was designed to be user friendly, and is set up to do everything. It requires a lot of resources to run properly, and because of its popularity is the target of a lot of security attacks and viruses.

Mac is built on BSD UNIX, it still uses the MAC interface for the GUI, but under the hood it's UNIX. It's not as popular as windows and therefore not as much of a target for security attacks and viruses.

Answer 2

Nobody wants to face the fact that Linux, Mac OS X, Microsoft Windows XP, and Vista are based on OS designs that are as old as the hills. Sure, OS X and Windows have been gussied up with pretty icons and lots of colors, but that's just lipstick on a pig. The difference today between the Mac and the PC is that the Mac has better lipstick. Windows PC's Usually have more powerfull Hardware, because the operating system needs it.

Answer 3

Macs are designed to be appliances while PCs with Windows are designed to be Swiss Army Knives (why is it called that way?)

Software Macs are as sorry as a computer could be but then I said they are appliances like TV, fridge, etc.

Hardware Macs are superior. Maybe it was so to cover up the sorriness of older Mac OS with price, now it is so for the hipness and still with price.
