So not only can you run all the Mac and Windows software,you could run any Linux or Unix programs since OSX is based on Unix. So that would mac the Mac the most versatile. Remember if you get a new PC it will most likely have Vista on it. I am not sure you would want to do that since I keep hearing about people who are trying to get XP onto these Vista machines because of all the incompatibilities.Then there are the vulnerabilities which MS is not always on the ball with fixing. I heard of a recent one they had let go unpatched for 3months. If you really want that, go for it.this is like a mac catalog add, there is so many disagreeable statements, its amazing. unix/linux being osx based has no bearing on its use, I have run a dual boot since linux's first kernel on pc, not to mention any built machine has an OS preference (well like 90%) and most prefabs have a choice option to have xp. And there are vunerabilities in all systems, its just most hackers target pc's, but dont think a mac can't be broken into, and they like NEVER have security updates, the same vunerabilities from like macos 8.0 STILL work. Plus there are just as many advantages when not using a mac.macs are in no way superior to pc's. There is no clear winner, thank you, that is all, just had to restore perspective.
