Macs are also incredibly intuitive. The trackpad I have on my MacBook has support for multitouch gestures which means I can pinch to zoom like on the iPhone and if I want to go backwards and forwards between pages in Safari I just swipe 3 fingers back across the trackpad. Its so simple. I couldn't live without it.

Also Macs are stupidly fast in comparison to Windows mine takes about 25 seconds to be FULLY ready to use. I don't have to feck around waiting for any antivirus or crappy pre-loaded software to load up. Shutting down is even faster, takes only 3 seconds. Beat that Windows.

I could say a lot more but I'll spare you all for now.

Said it once, I'll say it again.

You could spend £1000 on a PC and a year down the line it'll be running at a snail's pace.
Spend £1000 on a mac, and you'll have a computer that will seem brand new for over three years. Mine still does, and I got it in Jan 2008. Although I'm getting a new macbook pro in a few months because I like the design over the plastic macbooks.

Wrong

I've had mine 18 months and it's running like the day I got it.

It'll only go slow if you clog it up with sh#t

Yeah but the thing is, how many times have you had to clear out the bloody thing?

In the 8 months I've had my Mac, its been incredibly fast and hasn't slowed down a single bit. Oh and I haven't had to clear it out or delete anything or feck about with registry errors. Apple mean it when they say everything 'just works'.
