PCs vs. Macs: Which Has More Power?

[Sylin]

You can throw whatever power you want under the hood of a PC, but you're still stuck running a resource hog OS in Windows Vista.

Think of it like this: you have an awesome muscle car with a turbo-charged engine, but you have 4 flat tires.

Mac, on the other hand, runs Intel processors, and they are not far behind the curve as some ignorant people would have you believe. Apple has done a great job keeping up with the latest processors. Combine that with a MUCH more efficient operating system, and YES, the ability to upgrade your components inside a Mac Pro, and you've got plenty of power with fewer causes to worry.

I really dont see the point of these polls, its like which car is best or which movie star, its all subjective.

I have an iMac and 2 PCs in my home, because that suits me to use each computer for specific tasks. the Mac is better at some things and the PC at others.
