The first computer I ever used was an apple and the first one my family ever owned was an apple too. Currently in my house there are 4 PCs and a Linux router. All the new apple products look really cool (except for the new iMac). An apple you just plug it in, turn it on, it works. With windows there is a lot to configure and set up and it gets messed up kind of easily like in my Windows 98 SE sound works in everything except Media Player 7.1 Wierd huh? However, with windows 2000, you have a system that almost never gets stuck or crashes. If you bump up to XP, it is virtually goof proof. Another thing to keep in mind is that you can buy 2 PCs for the same price as 1 comparable Mac. I actually have frozen a Mac Power PC before but that was only once ever and those are kind of old. With Macs you can have the security of knowing that whatever you do it will keep working. However, I do feel that a window's environment is eaisier to navigate and work in. Also notice that it is most always the PCs that are on the cutting edge of new technology. Someday, Macs and PCs will be very alike. Until then you just really have to own both because I really can't pick one that's better.
