You've never really used a Mac, have you? I'm assuming you can't afford one and therefore you automatically hate them.
I've used a MacBook Pro for about a year now and I haven't had any problems with crashes, freeze-ups, viruses, compatibility issues or printer problems; I haven't had to reboot twice a day for updates, re-install my operative system, download tweak tools to make things work as they should.
I've used an iPhone 4 and iPad 2 along with the MacBook Pro as well - all working seamlessly together without any issues what so ever.
You might argue it's expensive, my view on that is it's worth every damn penny as you gain so much time not only by not having to constantly do maintenance to the system, but also having a more productive, and responsive operative system.
The days of spending hours fixing registry problems, lost .dll-files, XP/Vista/7 compatibility issues, doing anti-virus/malware scans, etc. are over for me! If you ever get tired of it, buy a Mac you, too.
Please don't give me a crappy 1-line response (just because you know I'm right).
I've used a mac, I've been a Mac owner and the adjustment from PC to Mac is terrible, on PC I rarely ever deal with crashes or freeze ups. Also you must be an idiot or experienced user to be able to catch a virus. Saying you don't have to reboot twice a day for updates is a total dramatization, a very ignorant thing to do is dramatize thing just to be a fan-boy to the system you love, the reality is windows comes out with updates about once a week to every 2 weeks at most. Mac has less sales than windows, yes it works fine for people who want a closed working environment, but there's nothing a Mac can do that Windows can't, and if there is, you can emulate Mac on a Windows just as easy as you can emulate Windows on Mac.
Also for the record, Mac has app crashes all the time, some in which I've never experienced on Windows, but Windows also has its crashes too, but I've never had Windows Se7en OR Windows Vista have a crash in which you have to reinstall, in fact, if you were smart enough, you would know that Windows doesn't crash to a point that a reinstall is required.
So leave your little dramatizations out of this, your assumptions on Windows users, claiming they're all brainless does nothing more than make you look like an absolute asshole, you prefer a Mac, good for you, but it doesn't make you or the operating system you like better than everyone else. You sound like a console fan boy who would troll around on Youtube comments all day, that's reality, get over it and realize that people will get what they prefer. Recommend what you like to people, that's fine, but blindly calling people idiots just because they have what you don't makes you look like an asshole. There's your 1 line response.
[On topic, because some people didn't realize that they totally went off topic going fan-boy crazy]
So Twisted, here's your answer
Windows - Heavy gaming, open OS, affordable price, good for media use.
Mac - Media and office tools, simple design, light, clean OS, light gaming.
Linux - Developer operating system, not so much gaming at all, from what I seen needs more of an Advanced user, thus I would not recommended the OS.
