Why is Mac better than Windows?
Answers:
Comparing a Mac to Windows is like comparing a car to a steering wheel.
Microsoft makes an operating system: Windows. Apple makes a computer: The Macintosh line.
A lot of the benefits that Apple claims to have (justifiably) such as reliability, ease of use, etc. Come from the fact that Apple sells specific models of computers with their operating system on it. If you want something portable... get the MacBook, if you want a small computer, get a MacMini, if you want a more powerful computer, get the workstation. They have different products, but for the most part your selection is limited.
Windows, on the other hand, is just an operating system. It may come pre-installed on a lot of computers, but Microsoft doesn't sell computers. Therefore, you can put Windows on computers with an infinite number of configurations. Older computers, newer computers, computers with hardware that you specifically pick out, for a computer you can build yourself. This flexibility makes an OS like Windows a lot more flexible in the eyes of some people, and therefore a lot more desirable. Especially in the business world where CTO's don't feel like being "locked in" to a hardware vendor. While this locks them into an OS choice, the fact is that the OS overall cost is far cheaper than the hardware costs, so it's the lesser of 2 evils.
So, the question of whether a Mac is better has to do with the needs of the customer. It's better for some, worse for others. Some people like cars, others like trucks.

In the computer worlds you are a fan of whatever you want to be. Windows is the standard OS of most computers so all programs by it are standard. This is what makes Windows easy and often times the best OS. Macs are barely used by the world's standard next to Windows. Also being UNIX based they have superior security to Windows.
A lot of the features of Mac right now (10.4 Tiger) are available in Vista. But Macs are not prone to viruses like windows. macs usually work better because the operating system and the hardware is made both by apple, unlike microsoft. combining a dell with vista makes it more unstable and harder for the average user to use. thats why you never hear of people "switching" from a mac to windows, its all the other way around. apple believes in quality rather than quantity. thats why they are so damn expensive!!
