Actually, Macs ARE PCs-- These days Macs are powered by Intel CPUs and can run Windows natively without emulation.

Hardware-wise, Macs are basically Windows PCs with a TPM to allow Apple OSX to run. Same Intel CPU, same system architecture with PCI Express graphics card, PCI slots, northbridge, southbridge, SATA interface, USB, the whole schmeer.

In that regard, I'd say a Mac is better because it gives you more options-- You can run either Windows or OSX.

 

And Macs have all Apple hardware right?  PCs like combines 20 companies in one computer.

true. gimme my points now

PC's are good for work related things, and are more office type systems.

Mac's are more media based and thrive with music, movies, well basically more animated/web related types.

The PC software is better to create more formal documents and run more games.

Mac's software is fun to use for art and media.

If you use your computer to play games then get a PC as a MAC is hopelessly lost when it comes to games.

Whereas if you want a normal computer for normal types of things then get a MAC......i personally can't stand MAC's but to each his own.
