Ok, you've probably seen the commercials on TV, maybe. But have ever really thought about switching from a PC to a Mac? I have. I've looked at this site as well as others (PC Magazine, CNET, ZDnet) and I have to say that I am very compelled to switch. But I'd like to see what other Macintosh users have to say before I buy. Here are my questions about Macintosh computers:
What are the advantages and disadvantages of using a Macintosh instead of a PC?
In what ways are Macintosh's and PC's compatible with each other?
Is there good software for the Macintosh, despite their being only about 3,000 titles for Mac OS compared to Windows' 30,000 titles?
Do Macintosh's work better with Internet, about the same, or not as good as a PC?
How do Macintosh's perform in comparison to PC's?
How well do games run on Macintosh's compared to PC's?
How reliable and secure are Macintosh computers compared to a PC's?
Are Macintosh computers highly expandable and easy to upgrade?
Is owning a Macintosh worth the the steep price?
I may have more questions later.
Wait's for Asher's response. . .

edit:

Just for the record folks, I rarely play games on my computer; if I do play games, it's usually at a friends house on a console. But I do like to surf the Internet and listen to music. I would also like to be able to watch DVD movies, burn CD's, and burn DVD's. I would like something that has plenty of firewire and usb ports. And yes, I do work with graphics occasionally. I would like to have something that's portable, but it doesn't have to be "ultra-portable" (I don't plan on using my computer in the car, on a plane, a boat, a train, or whatever. I just want to be able to take it with me wherever I go and plug it into an outlet when I want to use it).
Despite the high price (I'm willing to shell out some extra bucks anyway, even on a PC), the new iMacs seem to fit my demands.
