Like I said earlier I have used both all of my life and I much prefer Mac over PC. It is true the Mac is more expensive , however there is nothing that can be done on a PC that I can't do on a Mac. At one time there were less choices for Mac folks but not any more.
The Macs are more expensive, true, but I am very willing to,pay for it. My last Mac at home lasted 7 years (of hard daily use, the processer finally got the too slow and outdated, while I went thru 5 to 6 PCs at work during that period of time, and 3+systems on the PC).
A lot of it is sometimes getting outside of or staying inside comfort levels. I still have access to both and will always migrate toward the Mac. Recently I bought all new computers for my office. I got some of Botha and am now hearing from my staff that they prefer the Macs when we get more in the future. Their comment is " I can do something that takes 3-5 steps on the PC when it only takes 1to 3 steps on the Mac. I will point out that the Mac was using a mouse years before the PCs started using them, now you never see a P C without a mouse - I used to get laughed at because of my mouse I the old days.
But frankly the Apple Stores are so busy these days I almost avoid going to them! They are full of those cute geeky folks though
