I love my PC for everything, but macs are by far superior in music, video, pictures, and other multimedia type applications. I'm a heavy gamer though, so if I wanted a mac gaming computer it would cost more than double that of a gaming PC. Macs do work well though, all the parts are built by 1 maker which means they all work together a lot more smoothly than a Windows PC. I read in a popular mechanics magazine test, a mac computer installed with Windows booted faster than a Windows computer installed with Windows
