[QUOTE="Sachsr1, post: 391342, member: 23128"] There are so many differences between windows and OSX that it's too hard to tell which one you will prefer over the other. All the things you mentioned that you like to do on your computer can be done on a Mac, and I feel that OSX is better then windows. There are a ton of reasons to swtich to Mac from windows, and I did it in January. I plan on never going back to windows, because I have found all I need and more on the mac. The first thing that comes to mind is that you don't have to worry about viruses and spyware, and for the average computer user that is worth alot. I also like that most software you need is from apple so they support your hardware and software. Also I have found so many free versions of software out there I haven't had to buy any software for my Mac (except my kids Dora game). There are reason not to use a Mac, but you didn't mention them as something you use (CAD, hardcore gaming, or windows only apps you may need for work). I would still buy a low end Mac to surf the web and e-mail to help keep a windows box from getting viruses. And the final reason to get a Mac...QUICKSILVER. The greatest app ever [/QUOTE]
