As far as desktop machines are concerned, I much prefer Windows to OS X. The general upgradability and other power features are nice to have. Games are pretty awesome, but generally I prefer console gaming. For Laptops however, I think apple does a MUCH better job than any other pc manufacturer. The build quality is way better and the laptops have far superior power management than the pc counterparts, and I think that's what important in a device that is supposed to be mobile. The stability and invulnerability to the majority of shit on the internet is also a plus. I use my notebook for school, and it needs to work all of the time or else I am screwed. I wouldn't feel 100% comfortable with a PC notebook. Although I will say it does suck not being able to run lots of little miscellaneous programs (without booting into windows) for example pokesav, or other windows only apps.

Also I find the market share argument to be a fallacy (at least among US College students). There are lots of kids that have macs and with more and more stuff going to the cloud and being browser based, I believe the operating system argument with get gradually less relevant. Yes you can compare the specs and say one is a better value than the other, but there are the other things that need to be taken into account. (plastic vs aluminum for example). seriously the new macbook pros are STURDY
 
I got a Mac Book with the current OS, and a Windows XP (Most likely not gonna upgrade to Windows 7.), so I'm okay.

they also dent easily if dropped where as plastic would either break or just absorb it

or you could just get one coated in rubber like some laptops

i have had my macbook for over 2 years now. and i love it. it had 7hr battery life now it is down to 6. something that a windows computer did not have at that time. so for laptops i am a mac.

for desktops i am windows. mainly because of gaming.
 
I'm a PC for sure. I don't want to use those handicapped 1 button mouses.
Hell man I've tried.
I used a mac (Emulator on the Amiga) (B&W OS) Hated it!
I got a free Mac with 0S9 by fixing the hard drive. Hated it! Gave it to my mother in law.
I'll stick to my PCs.
Computers I've gone through:
Timex Sinclair,Timex Sinclair 2000, 3 Commodore 64s, Amiga 1000, 2 Amiga 500s, Amiga 1200, Amiga CD32, 386 pc, 486 pc, AMD 586 pc,
Pentium 1, Pentium 2, Pentium 3, Pentium core 2, Pentium Core 2 Quad. Don't get me started on consoles.
 
Runnin OS X as we speak. Im not partial though. I really could care less. Ill use windows as long as its no more than a half an hour of vista.

Infact i have xp booted as a my bootcamp for games and other things.
