[QUOTE="cwa107, post: 1038569, member: 24098"] If you're content with Windows, I see no reason to switch. There's nothing you can't do with Windows that you can on the Mac and vice versa. Macs mostly use commodity x86 hardware and although it tends to be of good quality and reliable, you can also get similar quality components in a custom PC. At the end of the day, it's all about whether you're looking for something new and different - if you're the kind of person who embraces change. If you are, the Mac can be very rewarding and a lot of fun. If you're particularly set in your ways and are mostly content with Windows, why bother with buying all new apps and spending time trying to figure your way around a new OS? I know a lot of the Mac zealots love to preach the "it just works" mantra, but that's not always true. I believe there is less maintenance and concern over malware, but an astute Windows user can work around those issues as well. [/QUOTE]
