Urf, Macs! Can't fix em yourself. Software is expensive (and hard to pirate). Can't upgrade em yourself. Costs three times as much as anything on the market. Always find yourself in the niche corner. Still haven't figured out that mice should have more than one button.
None of those things are true (except maybe the niche comment).
This is being typed on a Mac that has been upgraded several times. Has a four button mouse with scroll wheel. Is chock full of free software (and yes, not all of it is legal). Prices, like for like, are broadly comparable.
I use both Mac and PC and have done for years. The one advantage the PC has is that there is more software for it though most of that consists of either either games or rubbish like Microsoft Project. In most other respects they are fairly comparable these days though Macs seem rather less prone to mysterious gremlin type illnesses.
