I use a Dell at work and a G5 Duo at home. My boyfriend has a PC at home too. I prefer my Mac. My mother also has an ancient Mac from way back when that still works happily, while my little sister has a PC. Guess which one has more problems? An Apple computer generally guarantees quality. You do pay more for a reason. Apples have built-in networking. I plugged 2 computers into my cable modem hub and shared files between them. Yay built-in ethernet! My computer also has Bluetooth built in and what a pleasure it is to just put batteries in my keyboard and go. Macs open most Windows files as it is. OSX gives you the power of UNIX. So if you really want to, you can run your command line and customize to your heart's content. Vue 4 & Poser 4 came as hybrid (both Mac & PC) disks. Software isn't really an issue. Games like Diablo 2 LOD, SIMS, Civilization, etc, all come out for both the Mac & PC. The Duo g5 seems to run incredibly fast for me. So for me it works splendidly.
