Default Why Windows users won't switch to Mac

Some Mac users are very loyal. They don't want anything else and can't see why everyone else isn't a Mac user.

PC users can give several reasons why they don't want to switch and Mac users can give several reasons why they should switch. Possibly some 5 Star members have some opinions they would like to express about this.

Some of the things loyal Mac users will say is that PC users don't understand the Mac platform, Mac is easier to use and that Macs are more fun to use.

Among the things said by PC users is that Macs are more expensive, that it is easier to get free help with Windows because so many more people have knowledge about Windows and that there is a lot more Windows software available.

Here is a link to some of the numerous arguments on both sides of the continuing Windows vs Mac debate. » Why Windows users don’t switch to Mac | Hardware 2.0 | ZDNet.com

I've tried to use a Mac a couple of times in my life (not by choice).
Things I didnt like include the lack of 2 mouse buttons and confusion about how to close and open windows.
I'll never convert to a Mac

That's me!! I've been using a Mac ever since about 1983...when I was a kid!!!!

Mac = viruses?? What are those??
Broken Windows = Gah...I got a virus. Rince and repeat next week.
Mac = What's a crash??
Broken Windows. = Gah....it crashed...again...and I lost everything!!!
Mac = SpyWare?? What's that!!!
Windows = I think some one installed a Keyloger on my computer!!!!!!!!!!

I think about the only think we (er...mac n00bies) would have to worry about is phishing, before they learn to ignore E-mails from people they don't know!!!

*ducks* So what Windows user wants to make their version of this post!!

We use Windows based PC, since the same PCs are also used
for development of Windows based Applications for SMEs.
Our target run-time environment for most web applications
is Linux, but we do the development on Windows. There has
only been a rare occasion when we needed to test some problems
specific to Mac, but due to higher cost, it is not affordable.
