You get much more value for your money, a much more mainsteam product, and a much more significant lesson in the world of business with a PC. If you are going to work in the world one day, and I assume you are, skills running your Mac won't help you, and not knowing how to use Windows is unacceptable.
If you aren't familiar with Windows and PCs already, get a PC for god sakes. It's basic education in modern society.
If you do already know how to use a computer, then why are you even asking? PC is the obvious choice. It's either much cheaper, or much more powerful depending on which way you go, it can play games, and do everything a Mac can do so what are you waiting for?
I don't need your console war.
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.
I don't need your console war.
NO NO, NO NO NO.
