Ahhh the good old windows vs mac discussion! A battle older than time itself! I personally am a mac person, not for the fashion, not for the look, not for the cool factor, but for the fact that it suits what I do. And I also feel it's far superior to any other type of offer out there. It saves me a lot of time. It's just me. What about you, are you a windows or a mac person?

"Older than Time Itself?" you must be talking about a different 'time' than the one I live in! the one in which MTV used to play music-videos I'm a Windows-person, but that's just because most of the schools I went to run on Windows. Deep down, I'm still an ATARI 130XE/ATARI BASIC nerd

I remember back when it was 'ATARI vs. COMMODORE 64" ... then it was "Nintendo vs. SEGA"

Hi, I am born on the windows world, from version 3.1 to 7, it has been windows for me. I am familiar with Mac OS but there are some applications I am comfortable working with that don't go well with Mac. Besides, Mac could cost me an arm and a leg to acquire, both the hardware and software, while I can have Windows OS for a dance and a song in an equipment I can personally build at no cost at all. Needless to say, I am at home with Windows. I can work on it at any angle, I can easily install and repair any of its components and is so easy to maintain. If by any chance Mac gets thrown on my lap for free, I would still prefer Windows on some of my apps even if I find Mac better than it. For me Mac is unfamiliar territory and I can't waste my time learning its ins and outs with all the work waiting out there.

Definitely a Windows person for me! My first computer was a Mac, but ever since I have a Windows computer it has always stayed that way. I think it is more for the compatibility with other things that I use Windows. It has always been better for gaming and such, and it is also less pricey for equal specs. Macs do have nice build quality, but if you know what you're looking for, you can find great build quality on Windows computers as well.

For me I am a windows user. The main reason I am that way is that I learned how to repair Windows computers as well as upgrade them as needed and if they can be upgraded. I have heard that MACs tend to work better and have less problems, but once problems come up it takes a certified MAC technician to fix the problem. I know there are pros and cons to both types of systems and often it is just a user's preference.
