PC:
Way cheaper for the same quality
Runs windows and linux
Easy to get replacement parts and upgrade existing parts

Why would I want an overpriced Mac that limits my options considerably?

Apparently wanting to save money and still get a high quality machine makes me a "fool."

Also, everytime I use a Mac, it's a pain in the ass to change the options. Hell, half the time it looks like the options don't even exist.
It's even worse on the iPhone. I go to change a simple layout option for Safari, and too bad, it doesn't exist.

Besides that, the software options on a Mac are extremely limited. By dualbooting (or better yet running both in parallel using virtualization technology) Linux and Windows, I have access to everything I could need.

Really, what does Mac offer me other than an empty wallet, software limitations, and a pretty case?

A PC with, Vista, XP Professional and the latest version of Linux on it.

In my opinion Mac computers are great but will not be good for what I want. I require a computer which will allow me to play a lot of games, most games are compatible with MAC OS. In my opinion its easier to find a program for Windows than to go looking for the MAC equivalent.
