I don't have a computer. i tranfer my thoughts to amity straight from my brain
I am a PC gal (most of the time) and DH is a PC man. I like their ease of use and ease of upgrade, HOWEVER, if I was doing what I am supposed to be doing (writing books and doing layouts using spiffy software) I'd want a MAC! I used a MAC in college for work on the newspaper and to do my work at home (when I lived with my MAC loving friend). I can't say I will ever LOVE Mac, but I do love it for publishing.

Well it would be nice to be able to vote for more than one. We have both a Mac and a PC. Love the Mac, hate the PC, hence the reason we got the Mac, too many problems with the PC.

Exact same as the above.
We went through three PCs and a PC laptop that all were pieces of junk, riddled with spyware (despite virus programs), crashed constantly, conflicting programs causing "Illegal operations" that shut it down all the time, etc.
I finally got my eMac and have NOT ONCE had a problem. It is AWESOME
And - apple is a homeschooling-friendly corporation and offers discounts for homeschoolers.
I use my brain. I can’t say I love it or hate it, really. It seams to slow down when I try to process too much information at once, and it takes forever to remove viruses! Upgrading is impossible ( it is a pretty old model), but there is a lot of nice software for it, in fact I have different software for every season! Memory isn’t really an issue, it has none. Oh yeah and it has the WORST spell checker!

ROFL That made me laugh out loud.
I have a mac. This poll stems from an argument I had with someone who loves her PC. i told her she was weird, no one loves a PC. I guess many of you have proved me wrong.
When i had a PC we had a hate hate realtionship. I have permanent memory loss from banging my head into it when it kept eating everything I saved.
I love having a Mac! Love it! Easy to use, easy to install, virus resistant and totally worth the clost. Very user friendly and the applications are way too cool!
HTH!

We are a Mac family and we LOVE them. I use an older iMac from 1999 and it runs like a top! Never had any problems with it. I love not having to worry about viruses and all that crap! Honestly, I think the only people that love their PCs have never owned a Mac.

I miss having a Mac...When dh and I got a new computer after my Mac died (after many, many, many years of tireless service), my mom and dh convinced my that a pc was the way to go.
I've had a pc since 1996 - well to be truthful, I've gone through 3 P.C.s! The darn things are always breaking down and are so annoying. Right now I don't have my own computer - I'm using dh's laptop (a PC) now. I've tried to convince him that I should get a Mac again, but he's not convinced. He thinks it will be more trouble than it's worth.

I would NEVER go to a PC full time. Ever. We have three Macs and a Dell. The Dell never gets used, despite the fact that it's the newer computer.
I never have crashes, never have viruses or spyware problems, never have problems period. I find my Macs easy to upgrade in both software and hardware, and I use my computer all of the time.
I couldn't be paid enough to use a PC. Blech.

I voted I love my Mac, but really we have a love hate relationship. I love my Mac for graphics, but sometimes it is a pain on the web b/c so many sites are built for PC's, Homestead is an example. My DH hates the Mac.
Love our Macs. Haven't really owned a pc but that's what I used in school for many years and dh taught me that computers don't necessarily have to be the enemy.
Can't vote LOL Love my mac's love my PC's, for different reasons and uses
Yep I'm a nerd...shhhhhhhhh.....
