[QUOTE="Mouse26, post: 37327"] The security thing I will grant you, but I agree with Moltenlava that the lower occurence of Mac viruses is simply because viruses are designed with hitting the most people, and that will be PC users. If Mac was the prevalent platform then I'd guess that alot more flaws in Mac security would be exploited. Is it really tested at the moment?! The reason I asked the question in the question in the first place was that I am thinking of buying a new desktop, and was considering a G5. With all the evidence though I see no good argument why an Apple desktop is better than a PC. The design is miles ahead and the interface is more user friendly, but it's just not practical. You can just do more things more ways with a PC. But having said that, when I come to upgrade my laptop, I'll almost certainly stick with Apples, in terms of portable office work and organisation (which I use it for), there's not a PC laptop that can touch it.
