on the other hand, macs don't come preloaded with crapware, spyware, and malware.

I don't have a big issue with the company or the products - I do have some yes but, in general, they're just tools. Different strokes for different folks. Under the hood, they're a lot closer to a pc than ever before so much of it is just the OS. There are some things that mac's do very, very well and more efficiently than pc's but at the same time, there are a number of areas where they lag severely behind. They tend to have more appeal for "artsy" folks since they're probably best suited for desktop publishing, photo and video editing and manipulation, music and so forth. Whereas for legitimate business use and particularly business presentation, they leave a lot to be desired. Apple is still all about the dollar and I can't fault them for that - that's what they're in business for but, one example I regularly deal with is trying to hook peoples mac's up to our AV system to show videos and youtube clips and Apple - in their infinite wisdom - has created about 6 different ways out outputting video from their laptops - none of which natively mate up to any projector manufactured so, they force their users to all go spend $26.95 at the Apple store for a dongle to make it work. Ka-ching! I could go on but, it would get off topic and I need to leave for work anyway.
suppose you're thinkin' about a plate o' shrimp. Suddenly someone'll say, like, plate, or shrimp, or plate o' shrimp out of the blue, no explanation. No point in lookin' for one, either. It's all part of a cosmic unconciousness.
