You should watch one or two of the PC vs Mac TV ads first.

Lots of ill-informed anti-Mac comments on there, from brainless idiots who've probably never actually used Apple Macs.

And the usual boring argumentative "my OS is bigger/better than your OS" rants.

Although I agree 100% with comment #21 in the thread . . .

Someone labelling himself as SwarmyFellow wrote:I thought the Platform Religious Wars ended eons ago, at least among the
enlightened… Use a PC, use a Mac, use Linux, use UNIX, use whatever
you need to use to get the job done. Every platform has its strengths
and weaknesses. Get over yourselves.


I really couldn't have put it any better myself.

That's very well written. And, if you don't know which one to buy, get a Mac ;-)
