Re: Mac or PC

dat a nuh news lol



----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
<span style="color: #000099">Still, Apple's PC market share is comparably tiny. In the United States, it commands just shy of 9% of the market, according to IDC. Globally, it's even smaller, with about 5% of computers running Mac OS, according to Net Applications.

Apple's puny market share has a lot to do with its prices. Its entry-level, bare-bones Mac Mini starts at $699, and the most basic MacBook will set you back $999. Though Apple's high prices have fostered a small, loyal niche of rabid fans, cheaper alternatives from competitors are getting much better, especially now that PCs are shipping with Microsoft's (MSFT, Fortune 500) vastly improved Windows 7 operating system.

While Apple's MacBook laptops scored at or near the top of each measurable category in a recent Consumer Reports survey, the influential magazine ranked Toshiba's 13-inch, $599 Satellite T-235 laptop higher than Apple's $999, 13-inch White MacBook. It also said HP's 17-inch $1,150 dv7 laptop was better than Apple's 17-inch MacBook Pro, which sells for exactly twice as much: $2,300.</span>

Re: Mac or PC

PCs have been trying to match Apple's performance for years. While they are getting close I personally feel you are much farther ahead with a Mac if you can shell out the $$$. No worries about viruses or spyware etc... plus a rock solid operating system. If you are a die hard Windows fan you can run Windows on a Mac and still enjoy the advantages that come with Apple

Edited to add... that I use both a Mac &amp; a PC daily. I don't claim to be an expert. I can only tell you that in 10+ years of using a Mac on a daily basis I have had little or no grief. The same cannot be said of my PC experience.

Re: Mac or PC

No surprise here but I think Windows 7 is going to close the gap. Plus the PC designs are getting really cool.
