EXACTLY. Macs aren't really crap, but you DON'T get nearly as much for your money as you do a PC. Sure, they may outperform PCs with the same specs, but you pay twice as much for those specs!
Oh and I'm 18. About to finish school (76 days from now).

Edit: Although I do believe that they are headed in the right direction with the affordably priced Mac Mini. I have decided that I will get a mac mini for my car, and use it as a jukebox etc on the move (that is when I can afford it
) Plus, I wouldn't run Mac OS on it either. Those crazy linux people managed to get a version of Red Hat running on the Mac Mini! Linux joyness!!

Here in Venezuela
nobody uses Mac, to see one in a store is pretty weird too! I see all this people complaining about windows but they keep it and no one of them changes to linux or mac or whatever.
I've been with windows all my pc-user life and i only had problems with it when i was too "noob" to know what was happening now i have more than a year without a single crash or virus (win xp, mcafee security 9.0, P4 3.0ghz, 1024mb RAM).

first of all, I am 16, second, I wish I was from Reach but unfortunatly I am from Earth.. third of all, I think MAC's are overprised shit computers... I would have to pay around 1800£ Brittish Pounds for a MAC with 2,5 GhZ, 512 RAM, 9600PRO 128 mb, 160 GB HDD... for that price I could have a PC with at least a AMD 3800+, GeForce 6800 GL, 1024 RAM, 300gb HDD and one of the newest mother board, so don't come here showing shit up my ears.. MAC's are way overprised for the features they have and they also do not support any of the games I play
EDIT: By the way, Volvos rule ! VOLVO S60 R
