Before you jump on my case, hear me out! Mac has revoloutionised the computer industry more than any windows product has. The Mac provides touch screen and is pretty cheap for its worth unlike windows. The graphics it supports is exceptional, it may not run the highest detailed games but can run majority of games better than windows. The software imo that makes the mac what it is, is the web browser "Safari" it is a noob-friendly browser and is so much more simpler to use than the windows default version "Internet Explorer". The mac looks a lot more stylish than windows and it runs more stylish, not to mention there is more gadjets installed. Another thing that justifies my statement is the amount of programs apple can run, such as safari, google chrome, photobooth and Vegas. I don't know if windows can run vegas but I've been told it can't so sorry if sound ignorant. So I'm pretty sure I've justified by statement, please tell me if you agree or disagree I really would like to hear your opinion :)
Me and Mac:1 Windows:0

Well, I will just number the things I would like to refute:
1) What Mac has a touch screen? iOS =/= OS X, but if you want to compare iOS to Windows, it is no competition as Windows is a full featured OS and iOS is just a smartphone OS (examples being compiling programs, choosing which browser you want, or running networking services)
2) The game support is almost non-existant, which is I will assume is the lack of Direct X (though OpenGL could work if people made their games using it).
3) Safari, to me, is worse than Internet Explorer, but this is mostly a null point: who still uses either? Get Chrome, Opera, or Firefox. Far superior browsers.
4) Far more people write programs to run on Windows. Period. That's it. Sony Vegas runs on Windows, photobooth is proprietary to OS X, but there is software just like it for Windows. Here are some programs that are Windows only: 95% of PC games or Notepad++. Granted, most general programs have an OS X version, but specialized programs tend to only run on Windows unless it is photo editing or video editing, which is where OS X excels.
To me, OS X represents an OS that doesn't break because it doesn't allow you to mess with it much. Windows is far more open to changes and has more programs to run on it. Not to mention the fact that I don't have to pay out the butt for hardware. About the only thing I like about Apple products is their hardware; I simply cannot stand their software. It is overly flashy and is too restricting.
