Apple v PC? Help!

<p>Love intuitive aspect of Apples, less spyware/virus, Final Cut Pro. But PCs are much, much more common, Vista may make them more intuitive and lessen the gap (total guess). Love itunes and potential phone for Apple.
Will Leopard be able to differentiate that much from Vista? Dont know.
Major? Maybe math or neuroscience but really not sure. Any thoughts?</p>

<p>If you love Apples' intuitive-ness, get an Apple.</p>

<p>I've never found them overwhelmingly more intuitive than PCs after figuring out the aspects of Windows, and even the dreaded XP.</p>

<p>Mind you, more people do use PCs, so there is a greater range of software/hardware/freeware available for PCs (though I'd take Linux if you really want freeware).</p>

<p>You can always dual-boot Windows on a Mac. :)</p>

<p>Leopard looks awesome, but I'm biased towards Macs. :]</p>

<p>As HelloKiki brilliantly pointed out, you can have Windows running on your Mac too if you miss it or want it. I mean, Macs are generally the preference for artists/musicians, while PCs are generally a preference for gamers, especially. It's obviously what you'd use it for, but again...you can run Windows on your Mac if need be! :D</p>

<p>For us dirt-poor remixers, Linux>Mac because of all the freeware. :p</p>

<p>Dual-booting with Windows on a Mac tends to cause instability, in my experience, and Windows doesn't run very smoothly on Macs. Perhaps, though, I just suck at setting things up.</p>

<p>^ are you using it with parallels or boot camp or something else.?</p>

<p>Parallels. Maybe I just suck at that sort of thing, though.</p>

<p>Parallels allows you to emulate various operating systems. It does not allow you to run Windows natively. With Parallels, you're running Windows on top of Mac OSX. This means that the performance is significantly lowered. If you use Apple's solution, Boot Camp, you run Windows natively and receive the full benefit of the computer's hardware.</p>

<p>Really?</p>

<p>Gotta try that, then, especially with Vista seeming rather mediocre right now.</p>

<p>for major digression.</p>

<p>Here's a debate on the issue:</p>
