Apple computers make all people look fruity. No pun intended.

None of them, Linux is the best (Ubuntu is free). But the only problem is... that most programs/games/apps are made fir Windows (Vista/7). So the answer is Windows.
I am currently on my Windows 8 CP, because it loads faster and looks nice. But if I want to buy a new pc, I will choose Windows 7.

+1 and don't forget After Effects. I do all my video editing on my PC with Vegas and After Effects and I never get viruses.

Mac doesn't have an advantage in photo or video editing, I do photo editing, they both have the same programs for the most part, well the important ones at least.

The reason for less viruses on Mac is that the userbase is so small that the people making the viruses wouldn't bother making one. However recently the Mac userbase has been growing so Mac users can expect more viruses now. In the end though, getting a virus = noob with computers.

Since you can install hackintosh in a PC, the only thing a Mac user would miss would be the Apple support.

You are on a GAMING forum, do you expect people to say mac?
Who is dumb enough to buy a mac for gaming?

This might attract flame, but in my school of Art, Design, and Media, all the people who know their stuff stick to Windows for everything - photo editing, video editing, modelling, etc, etc. Gaming is simply a huge plus. :D
Macs are good at what they do: simplifying everything, and being 'flashy'.

"Let’s remember, however, that “PC” means “personal computer”. Since when did the word “PC” mean a computer running Windows? Is a computer running Linux not a PC either?"

Or people who like incredibly stable and customizable operating systems that are much faster and resource efficient then both Windows and OSX and also have tons of free great open source software.

PC easy. Only way you can get a virus/hacked on a PC is if you're dumb. PC is easy to upgrade, cheaper, and when something breaks down, you don't have to buy a new one. PC also has much more game support than a Mac ever will.
Mac is more for the people who have to much money and wanna be cool. I see very little upsides. Everyone says video/photo but really, if that's the reason you're spending 1000+ more dollars on a computer. Video/photos better be your life long passion and job.

Mac isn't for people with too much money, it's for people with too little knowledge (or in some cases people who just want a simplified experience - an example would be musical producers, mac has logic (the program) and is apparently easier to use (really it just looks simpler), there's also some "core audio" BS which I'm not sure is even a real thing...). Back to my original point, I know a few people who could happily buy a Mac and not worry about the cost, but they all own Windows because they would rather not overpay for something. I also know people who, let's put it this way, are your stereotypical chavs (and neds also if you live in Scotland) who save up their money and then spend it on macs which they then use for...well, nothing because they are out drinking, smoking and getting pregnant. <- Probably the reason they are poor in the first place.

If you like paying way too much for your hardware and have less software available to you, Mac. For everything else, there's the PC.

If you look apple web site you cant buy any more that shitty plastic macs because they arent avaliable anymore. Now all Apple computers are aliminium. Also i install windows to my mac just for steam. I play my games in win steam and i use my computer with my mac os x in one computer. Windows is just a game console for me.
Also i using mac since 1999. I use a lot of win computer and macs. Main difference between them is stability. İf you look program side you can find almost all win program equals with mac os x except games.

PC says something, but because you don't understand the colloquialism, this entire thread likely doesn't make sense to you.
Colloquially, PC = windows, and windows > mac. Deal with it.

This topic has always been interesting to me.
PC or Mac?
PC-Cheap. More games. More chances of getting a virus (Dominates computer sales. More people -> more prominent attack)
Mac-Overpriced. Not as many games. Less chances of getting a virus (Only dominates a small percentage of computer sales.
