Mac vs. Windows: Considering a Switch?

With all of the excitement around Apple and little (or at least not so much) around Microsoft computer products and gadgets, many may be thinking of switching from a PC to a Mac.

(Not too many going the other way ...)

Well, if that's the case, check out the fine article in yesterday's New York Times' "Circuits" section.

Anybody what to counter any of those observations?

No excitement around Microsoft gadgets? Every X-box they come out with will not stay on the shelves.

I would always go by the Mac mostly because of the OS. boot camp or no, the Mac OS is a far superior experience and I plan to stick by that. also lots of devices, unlike popular perception ARE compatible with Macs (even some of the most popular cll phones : www.macandmobile.com)

Neither, I would rather use BSD / Linux... But windows does have its ups and downs...

You cant fully utilize your box with Mac compared to BSD / Linux.

This is Confusing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think the reason not many people go from Mac to Windows is because they don't want to have wasted all the money that they spent buying their over-priced computer.

I would get a mac but they are terrible gaming computers

yes Macs are over-priced but some of that is because they are made mostly of metal
and the windows computers have plastic shells

No. Stay with Windows.
You will be glad you did.
Unless you are willing to deal with incompatibilities.
