lol like that will ever hapen, the war seems to always rage Sorry, but it seems people seem one extreem over the other. I like windows because I love my sims 2 and like my compatable downloads for my windows version. On a mac, there are fewer downloads. A mac does have a short potential on viruses, but if I owned one, i still would use Microsoft Office, due to the fact i haven't heard much positives on mac's office like programs (do they have a spreadsheet type program yet???) Macs have a Beautiful interface. Windows is far behind on that. Their vista os is comparable, but takes up WAY too much memory.

2. The only reason mac's can't get a virus is since no hacker wants to waste his or her time designing a virus for a OS system which is hardly even used.
If everyone used macs, they would become virus potential. They do have better protection. Very few use linux, so there are pretty much 0 viruses, but unless you know what you are doing, linux is probably not for you. ie, 99.9% of your grandparents could never handle linux.

Heres How i go:

Games: Windows
Media: Mac
Interface: Mac/ linux if experienced
Cheap: linux
Internet: Windows or Mac, FYI linux seems to have an impossible time with dialup, depending on distro
Simple: Windows or Mac, whichever you are familiar with

I want all!!

I am not a computer wiz, so if anyone can change/add to what i said, please, please dO
