You wish haha.

That's not entirely true. I totally understand the comparison, but I'm a comp sci background who considers myself neither a mac or a PC, but both. I own a macbook, but I can call myself savvy for sure. If you've ever run linux on a machine it pretty much automatically makes you savvy to an extent.

like, the macbook is a nice laptop for sure, and that's why i have it. acknowledging the fact that it's weaker than cheaper PCs and that it's "security" is almost pure fiction adds some credibility to my argument. I say use what you want, as long as you aren't blind about it.

That really depends on what you do, especially a profession. One of my best friends is getting into film and you pretty much have to run FCP no matter what. Your initial comment is pretty silly, lol. You might be required to use OSX for a lot of things. Though those are extenuating circumstances, mind you. But I look at it more as not limiting myself to specific types of software or hardware. For instance, this summer I'm probably jumping on Final Cut X. While I could still make movies with other software, I simply will use that happily alongside Adobe software as well. That wont stop me from using a pc though either.

As for my thoughts on mac, it really depends on what we are talking about. For desktops I'm not really a mac person so I probably would stay on the side of the pc for raw power, but I would say in the laptop realm that I probably would go for a MBP or a Lenovo. In the laptop realm it's really not a mac vs pc thing for me. More so manufacturer vs manufacturer issue. When it comes to something like a laptop, I want higher-end hardware whether it be Asus , Lenovo, or Apple (battery life, build quality, and the like. Which if you notice, a lot of laptops lack).

Additionally, on a mac I can also run Windows and Linux so I consider that a massive advantage.

Should be Mac OS vs Windows?

PC is pretty generic

Maybe because there isnt a "general" experience with linux? Because of the customization and what not may be so that people all have a differing experience with linux as opposed to a standard(s) that everyone can experience for themselves with Win and Mac. I'm speculating too of course...

Which nullifies the idea of a stereotype.
