PC VS MAC

PC VS MAC
What other topic is more beaten to death than this one? Pc or Mac? Everybody get your pitchforks and torches out and throw them out the fucking window. I'm not here to stir up drama, but to state facts and personal opinions.
Everything has its pros and cons, well, almost everything. When it comes to tech though, everything is a pretty acceptable answer. Now we need to categorize this decision making process of which platform is superior. "Which one should I buy?", if this question is asked vaguely, please slap that person very hard in the face. If the question is more shaped like: "Which one should I buy if I want to do this...", then you're allowed to give them a proper answer without exerting violence.

Desktops 
The winner is pretty clear here, but let me keep you in suspense for a couple lines more. Let's face it, buying a PC is always more affordable. Truth is, you can build a Windows PC for way less money than buying a Mac Pro. You can build it yourself, pick out the parts and even put them together yourself, it's really not that hard!  Now you may say, "Hey you Mac hating douchebag! What if I don't want your shitty Windows OS?", don't worry I got you covered! You can build a Hackintosh computer pretty easily with a little bit of research. Quickly, for those of you who don't know what a Hackintosh is, It's essentially a custom built PC with Mac OS. You just have to be a little picky with your part-picking, but in the end of the day, you'll have a computer as strong as a Mac Pro, and as cheap as a PC! [Click here if you are interested]

Laptops
In this sector, the fight is more level. Mac laptops, Macbooks, are of course overpriced, but certainly quality devices. Since you can't really easily build a laptop as you can build a desktop computer, if you want to go Windows, you'll have to choose a pre-built one. Don't fret! There are thousands of options out there, with hundreds of companies providing you with multiple laptops to choose from. Like Asus, HP, Dell, Toshiba, Lenovo e.t.c. But when it comes to Mac laptops you have a small variety of powerful, beautifully designed, overpriced machines. To get a Macbook worth getting, you'll have to pay about 1000 bucks plus. When you can get the same horsepower for a better deal.

Operating System
Windows or Mac OS? If you are looking to game, grab Windows and get outta here! If you are looking for a stable working environment that doesn't deteriorate after time, grab Mac OS and get outta here! If you are looking for a combination of both, too bad there is no OS that you can game on that is as stable as Mac OS. You don't want to format your computer every one or two years so it can run as good as the first day you installed Windows on it? Go Mac OS. Do you want to game and have more customization in your life? Go Windows. As simple as that. Don't try and make gaming work on Mac people, at least not yet.

Synopsis
Hey, in the end, it's all about preference and what you want to do with your system. Want to do video/photo editing, surf the web, play a few games on a very stable clean OS? Buy a Mac, preferably a Macbook, no, scratch that, definitely a Macbook. Do you want a full gaming experience and everything to be optimized for your platform? Buy a PC, just a tip, build your own.
