Hi. I'm a PC. And I'm incredibly stable: I don't run Windows.

Topic aside, Windows isn't a significant source of instability unless you run it without ever updating. It's what people do when they're on Windows, same as if somebody decided to screw with a Linux installation.
Secondly, a Mac is still a PC. Or did I forget what that acronym stood for? (Tip: That's a rhetorical question, the answer is no). Thus, we're all on PCs -- except for in a few circumstances
ok well i dont understand how a mac is basicaly a pc, but i guess thats your belief.

PC = Personal Computer
A Mac is a particular brand of personal computer... much like an IBM system would have been... or an Acer system, Dell, HP, what have you. For whatever reason, colloquially PC has been taken to mean a non-Apple computer... not sure why, but on a societal scale, people make rather stupid and unfounded decisions on naming schemes.
As for the question in the OP, I suppose I'm a Mac, as that's my primary system... though I'm also a PC, I haven't completely tossed MS or Linux OSes aside. Each has its place, strengths and weaknesses.
I'm a gamer, so Windows is my only option.
Mac more stable and more secure but Windows more widely use than Mac and of course more resource as well. However, nowadays Mac can also run Windows at the same time so I prefer Mac.

Apple deliberately limited Mac OS to Apple-created hardware -- it's even in their license! That's Apple's fault and with their deliberate intention being to gain a monopoly within the market. Apple shouldn't be rewarded due to Mac hardware being able to run Windows

pc is best i dnt know abut mac i use pc from last 3 years
the only thing i hate is a system update to higher Operating System where some applications don't work to lower version.
Erm, Macs are PCs. In any case, I run a "PC" with a dual boot of Windows and Linux. Don't need any more than that. I have no reason to get OS X. Getting locked onto Apple's overpriced and underpowered hardware isn't something I am willing to do. Plus, I haven't figured out what the big deal is with the Mac OS X. All the benefits I hear about I can get from Linux, my main operating system, and I can run just about anything in Windows (namely games).
I doubt I would buy an Apple as their support is so different from PC support, repairs are much more complicated. A friend of mine bought a fancy desktop model last year, and has hardly used it in the year as it was standing in workshops waiting for repairs, that were really foreign for maintenance people who are more familiar with PC's, even when they have been employed to repair Apple Computers. Their equipment is so expensive, it just does not justify it for me when one can get PC's at a much lower cost. But there has to be a market that supports them. As far as I know Apple seems to still be a computer of choice for people in the media and top-notch designers. And maybe they can afford to pay top-dollar for Apple. I'm happy with my generic desktop computers with parts from here, there and everywhere, probably the equivalent of SPCA specials! It works very well. I can't imagine myself ever using Apple, but who knows, one should never say "never".
PC, I like Windows.
But, I would like to be able to afford to buy a Mac, just to see what it is all about, to test it and to play a little with it… Why wouldn’t I like using both?
