Quite an interesting topic....PC or Mac?

I'm so glad there were so many responses to this topic. When I originally started with computers I started with a Mac and my friend convinced me to switch to a PC which I did and he taught me allot about them. Everyone here has valid reasons for using the system they are using.
My friend that I just spoke of just had a major problem "again" with his PC and swore up and down he was switching to a Mac...well he didn't. My friends in California and N.Y. all use a Mac and of course love them and are in the music business.
For me, I'm having a hard time making this decision. My heart tells me to go with a Mac. My pocketbook says PC, and there won't be any learning curve with a PC which is a strong point.
There a other considerations too. If I go with a Mac...then it seems like starting all over again, although I'm not completely sure about that point.
If I go with a PC, well I'm not starting over again and it would certainly be much easier.
One point I found kind of interesting, I'm not sure if Gary or someone else made it and that is, 'the Mac usually has less programs running on it.' Well, if that's true, what difference does it make if it has fewer programs running on it as long as it runs without breaking down?

Well, back to my research and Michael please send me those links....email me.

To PC or not to PC? That is the question.
