    No intention here of starting a platform war so keep that in mind...

    Macs and the MacOS are painless and a joy to work on. PCs have lots of problems although they are presently a better gaming machine (but Vista makes me wonder about this assertion) because there are more games being made for the PC, not because Windows is a better OS. In most ways Windows is a manageable mess (more technical problems and headaches), that most gamers (include me) are willing to put up with to get access to more games.

    If it is just MacOS vs WindowsOS- Mac wins hands down, no question, no doubt. (I currently own a MacBookPro and a Pentium 4 3.2 Ghz machine, plan on upgrading to a Vista/DX10 machine in the Spring.)

    If your intention is to conduct hard core gaming, make sure you fully investigate MacBooks prior to purchase. It has integrated graphics which is not good for hardcore gaming. A MacBookPro would be a better choice if you can afford it. Check the Inside Mac Game Windows related forums for lots of discussion about MacBooks vs MacBook Pros.

      Very well written. Agree 100%. Just one little itsy tinsy question though..............

     

    If a Mac wins hands done on the OS side and a PC wins hands down on the game/software side, what would happen if (just hypothetically now) lets say....that a Mac (like mine) was able to run its OS and every and all available software for a PC?

    Serious question? As you probably know Macs can run Windows, but it takes some form of Windows to run a Windows game. PCs win hands down for gaming by virtue of the size of the customer base, not because it's a better OS. And a detailed discussion of why it has a larger customer base should probably be held in a different forum. :)
