Are You a Right Clicka or an iBook Flippa?
I think that PCs are better than Macs. They are more versatile and user-friendly. Mac is better to use for graphic designing, but other than that, PCs are much better. You can take them apart or start from scratch and build one on your own. Also, it its much harder to find accessories for a Mac. Most computer accessories you find in stores are made for PCs, and the Mac compatible accessories are very limited. There is so much hype over Macs, which is one of the main reasons why people seem to love them so much. Commercials are constantly being shown on TV, advertising mostly asethetics and rarely ever actual facts on the Mac. When Apple stores started showing up in local shopping malls, most students rushed over only to use the Mac's Photobooth application. It was the only thing they were interested in. Everything else seemed way too confusing. Even the mouse seemed extremely awkward to use. Moreover, Macs seem overpriced compared to PCs. PCs are just as sufficient for my needs, so I would much rather pay the cheaper price. Recently, the MacBook Air was released. Its sleek and slim look gained the attention of computer users over the world, but unfortunately, it came with many cons. They found that it had limited connectivity, and it was slower than other notebooks. The SSD hard-drive was also overpriced, and the battery could not be replaced. Although PCs are much less pretentious than any Mac, they are more reliable and efficient.

You have a point about the hype around Macs. People believe in the hype. But, I guess it's because you are not accustomed to Macs that you think they are more complicated to use. Macs actually claim to be easier to use. It's probably like a chopsticks thing-those who were raised to use them find it easy to use. The beauty and the geek can be used as an analogy for the Mac and the PC. The mac would be the beauty-obviously, and the PC would be the geek-because of apparently it takes a geek to learn to use it properly. Like you, I don't understand what people mean by this, but like I said, it's only because we've grown with the PC.
