Reliability - Mac
Speed - PC (maybe a draw, depending on your usage)
Looks - Subjective (I prefer functional to Mac's "artistic" look, myself)
Environment - ?
User Friendly - Mac

but....

Expandability - PC
Versatility - PC
Compatibility - PC
Cost/Value - PC

Microsoft doesn't develop new.. they just develop more on top of old.. therefore having a ton of problems.

Apple has no backward compatibility. Your point?

looks.. Mac's look is functional.. their desktops unfold quickly and easily to allow acces without removing crap.

OSX enviroment blows windows away.

I can easily expand my MAC... and its versatile for the most part... but i agree with compatibility... but not value.

I have no issues with backward compatibility on my Macs... give an example of a problematic issue.

Agree about OS-X. Wasn't sure what you meant by environment.

You have a G4/G5? Great, find me room for a 750 GB RAID5 Array. Oops, can't do it, no room for 4 hard drives.

Versatile? Many more apps for Windoze.

Value - I guess if you have access to the real price, then a mac isn't all that bad a deal. If you have to pay normal consumer prices, you're focked!

RAID5 Array is more for backup not computing really though. A G5 can hang if your looking for server type business though. I can get 8 gigs of RAM in a G5 though

I'll trade quantity apps for quality
