Almost like what family you were born into....
Ford or Chevy!
Mac's have a good following but nothing's perfect...Mac or PC!
A lot depends on the the user's ability and understanding of the systems.

Glad your happy with your Mac!

I was raised with PC's and Chevy's......
My dad is a creative in advertising, so he tends to prefer Macs for their superior editing capabilities when it comes to multimedia. The account guys always preferred PCs. They tend to be using the new Intel Macs now, though.

I started using PCs when I was in middle school because the school district was so dependent on them that my family got one so I could do my homework. Until then, I was using a 1995 Macintosh Performa operating on an early Mac OS. To this day, that computer still operates. Since then, I've had an HP fail due to virus vulnerabilities despite having paid antivirus protection, a Dell fail due to faulty hard drive components, and my roommate's Toshiba fail due to faulty hardware. I'm currently using my MacBook. My iBook is at my parents' house, still working without fail for its 3rd year.

In my experience, the Mac is superior. I have found it very functional for regular use and not nearly as prone to failure due to software issues, including security vulnerabilities. If Microsoft were nearly as protective as Apple when it comes to software issues, I'm sure viruses would be less prevalent in PCs, but that would not fix the fact that PCs tend to have inferior hardware.
