Windows. For a mac to be anywhere usefull enough i'd need to at the very least dual boot windows anyway and i'm nor paying twice for two operation systems.

Aside from... no virus because nobody finds it worth their time there is no real reason to have a Mac.

What's the point of having a more stable operating system if you can't do anything on said operating system.

What can be done on a PC and can't be done on a mac ? Nothing except games.


That and advanced statistical work.

Well they can be done on a Mac. It just doesn't run nearly as well. SPSS lagged behind at just an unbearable rate until the latest SPSS release which still leaves much to be desired compared to the Windows version... by using a Java workaround.

It's the same with SAS... which doesn't get proper support.

So why would I want a computer that I can't use for work or play?
