PC = custom dragster that "everyman" can make. With a little knowledge and patience, anybody can build a lightening fast custom rig that will run rings around any Mac. The only exceptions would be high end custom music or graphics software that require an additional wrap-around API to function. PC's crash because people are too stupid to defrag and too unwilling to do the minimalist protection.

MAC = egomaniacal, clunky, proprietary sludge that embodies the concept of the "King with no clothes." These overpriced boat ballasts function well for email and dubbing music... but is that worth 4 times the cost because people are too stupid or too unwilling to put in some time to learn better.

The problem being that relatively few people are capable of building a quality dragster. The rest buy pre-built on the market.

Huh?

You do know that disk fragmentation rarely has anything to do with a computer crash, don't you?

egomaniacal, clunky, proprietary sludge

Egomaniacal, yes. It often takes ego to achieve excellence. Clunky? Sorry, they're pretty fast and designed better than any PC on the market. Proprietary? Depends on what you're talking about. Can I upgrade my RAM, hard drive, graphics, etc., without having to buy from Apple? Can I plug in any USB or Firewire device? Definitely.

but is that worth 4 times the cost because

You haven't priced Macs lately, have you?
