Depends on the use. For gaming macs are not very good, limited choice still and gaming hardware extremely pricey. Then again for office or home recreational use it's excellent. Apps are super easy to use and generally very high quality especially when looking at value. Excellent presentation software, hobby etc. apps for next to nothing and some even bundled in. The iLife package with music sequencer, photo editor, web page maker and video editor software is amazing value for money. Then there's the ease of use - you can plug a Mac to your bluetooth amplifier with a couple clicks for example where with windows you need to replace the whole bluetooth stack with a paid version.

So far the amount of malware and viruses is also next to nothing. But that may change in the future.

Macs used to be rare. Times are changing. There was a period that Apple almost went bankrupt untill Jobs pulled it from the gutter.

I see macs everywhere nowadays, not just in our office. Many of my relatives use them, clients use them, my kids use them... A mac is a good conversation piece when you sit in the same table with clients. Usually the first comment is 'why don't they give us so nice computers too'. Especially the ladies seem to appreciate them. Then the next question usually is 'Is it just you or is it the company policy'.

I dont doubt it, however like i said other than at the store the last time i saw one was back in 1983.  and I remember having the money to go buy one but I ended up buying a car instead as it was cheaper :).
