[QUOTE="Raz0rEdge, post: 1497526, member: 110816"] TM is spot on with his advice. You are already a satisfied Mac user and that's great. There is no reason to believe that your parents wont' be just as happy with a Windows computer of their liking. Frankly, Windows XP and Windows 7 ( the two I have most experience with in the past decade) are very stable versions of Windows. The issues largely come from not having the necessary anti-malware software to protect the computer from the dangers lurking on the Internet. Also, if gaming is a big enough priority and if you do a search, you'll find that most of us recognize that Macs trail Windows in the gaming department. While you can certainly run games on Macs, the need to match the game to the specific hardware means you are going to be limited. Allow them to stick to Windows and enjoy your Mac..:) [/QUOTE]
