    I was just wondering if Macs were better for developing things, such as web design?

    Otherwise do macs have any major +?

    A computer is only as good as the person using it. That said, I love doing web development on my Mac, simply because I like using the UI of the entire system better

    Hehe, dont worry in my opinion youre not missing out on a great deal. Plus theyre not really common at all anywhere. (I have lived in England and Australia and have only seen 3, 2 in Aus and 1 in england.)

    Mac is better for eBay, you can get a mac sold for a higher price than you generally can get with a PC. Otherwise, I don't see any major advantages except for it's OS.

    But that's just my view. Try yourself and see if you like it.

    Mac is more for web design and development.
    Windows is more of a Gamer PC

    Mac has the reputation to be better for movie editing and graphics.

    In my experience using both PCs and Macs, I have personally found it much easier to troubleshoot and fix Mac problems than PC problems. With the PCs I often had to call for help. With the Macs I could usually figure the fixes out myself or by referring to the "Help" documentation.

    Thanks for the compliment. I have an intelligent thought every once in a while, and it's best to get it down in writing before it's gone!
