Don't get fooled with the virus and trojan horses story. Mac can get hit just as a PC can. Dad F hits it solidly!  |
I don't think it is as black and white as you are making it out.
A Mac is better suited for any sort of graphics, any sort of music (composing, mixing, etc.) any field that is even slightly touching the arts. As to business, ALL of Microsoft's major business apps have Mac versions that run faster than the PC versions. The transparency and compatibility from platform to platform is there. Yes, Macs can and do get viruses, but no where near as many and they are much easier to protect. The OS is so superior to any Windows OS it is not even a contest. As to cost, by the time you finish adding all the extras to a PC machine just to get to where a Mac is out of the box, the cost difference is not that great. And you do not have to be a propeller head to become a "power user" on a Mac.
