Actually... Mac has been around longer than Windows, well, at least until Windows took over Mac... I THINK PC is older than Macs though.

Agreed. Macs are intuitive. I LOVE my iPod and iTunes. I used to be a hard-core Winamp user, but when I got my iPod, I never looked back. Things are just thought-out and done correctly.

I'm going to agree and disagree, but not really. Mac hardware is awesome, no doubt, and their own processors were powerhouses doing twice (maybe more) the calculations per clock cycle that a typical Intel processor did. That was also a disadvantage since they were produced on a much smaller scale, and thus more expensive. Also, the OS is --for me at least-- the main attraction for Apple computers.
Windows has NOT been around longer than Apple computers. Apple was the first company to produce an OS with a GUI. They got the idea from Xerox who gave it away for free thinking it had no real-world applicatons.
I love my PC, but my next major hardware purchase will probably be an Apple. Vista has not impressed me.

RE: What is Mac ?
exactly
but by hardware i meant the design
just look at the iMac. its perfect in every way except upgradability which isn't that important cause its not a gaming console. buy an x360.
the mac mini is very impressive too, and the Mac Pro feels, acts and performs like the ultimate pro pc. have you ever touched one in real life? omg...

RE: What is Mac ?
^^Lol. Design terms, iTunes vs Winamp is a personal preference. In terms of features though, Winamp wins.
