What a pc makes better than a mac???

mac runs windows as well..... so what exactly more i can do with the PC? i don't get it..

If someone has the bucks is better to go with a mac it's simple.

better battery (for laptops) better design runs both apple and microsoft os.. and most of of all ULTRA SILENT (for me this is priceless)

The difference is that all that comes with an extra cost..

The fact that you don't have to spend three times as much for a comparable product?

I could buy an entry level Macbook, for example, with a 2.26 GHz Core 2 Duo, integrated graphics, 250 GB HDD and 2 GB memory for 1100$.

Or, say, this ASUS for the same amount of money: http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834220566  Faster CPU, more memory, descrete graphics, more HDD space, bigger screen, and so on.

Or, for the same entry-level type of specs, probably around 650$.

Or, for the price of an entry-level iMac with Core 2 Duo and integrated graphics, I could build something with more HDD space, a quad-core CPU, and a powerful video card... and probably costing less as well.

 

Macs are so overpriced.  There's no use taking it up the pooper from Apple just to use baby's first OS, lol.

Also, fun fact:  Macs are PCs, they just aren't marketed as such.
