    Haha@drag blunt. Macs run windows, ever since the inception of the intel chips. I only use my pc for hardcore gaming and network utilities really. All other times it's 80% iPad, 20% MacBook pro.

    Mine is synced with a Mac I get because I train others on it. If it weren't for that I'd be using a PC because my iMac's OS isn't up to date.
    Too many computers to list....

    I think after years Apple's commercials with Hodgman saying I'm a PC and Long I'm a Mac (plus the derivative Microsoft commercials playing off the same) pretty much everyone thinks of PCs as exclusively belonging to Windows and Macs to OS X.

    If you're syncing your iPad with OS/2 please send me a private message.

    Why would anybody say this when 90% of the computers sold run windows? It is surprising PC is not doing better, on a pro-Apple board you would expect tilted results but Mac is almost a tied and that is just wrong. Me I would never as long as Apple does not support Blu-Ray buy a Mac. Jobs says downloading is the future maybe but not for many years if ever. It takes me a good hour to download 6Gigs with a solid cable connection and at that I am limited to something like 40Gig a month. Downloading is not happening for me. I rather not worry about it play the Blu-Ray on my PS-3, PC laptop etc....

    It's only a marketing scheme with Apple trying to say it is not a PC and trying to separate themselves with I would call a name. But it's still a PC. It's just something that bugs me.

    No PC vs MAC wars I have and still do use both as most of us are forced to do. I can build you the fastest pc you have ever seen. I use a Mac mini, it's way more than I need and it never fights with me. If your a long time pc user you know exactly what I mean
