Mac or PC?

My computer is ill. Despite the fact that (repeated) anti-virus and anti-spyware scans proclaim health, something is wrong, and I think it might be fatal. How long? I don't know, but I just ordered a 4GB flash drive to prepare for the inescapable eventuality.

So...when my computer finally crashes its last crash, should I get a Mac or PC? I've always had a PC, but I'm considering Mac. I think I've been swayed by the commercials, but you have to admit, they are rather clever and make me smile. :) Any words of wisdom or buying advice? I mostly use my home computer (laptop) for web-surfing and word processing, though I also use Excel, digital photo stuff, some music, CD burning, etc. I have dial-up (gasp!) internet connection through PeoplePC. Thoughts?

Thanks for all of the comments, both here and e-mailed! :)

MAC! MAC! MAC!!!!!!!!!!

ok, you know how i feel but i'll give you reasons why:

1. my computer does not crash, ever. i run very large applications on it constantly. now, the way a mac is set up is that the specific program you're working on may freeze, but you don't have to restart, you only have to force quit that specific application.

2. the interface is entirely user friendly and adorable. macs are designed to be more intuitive and allow for applications to work together seamlessly. everything looks smooth and professional.

3. it's 10000000x cuter than a PC

4. the programs it comes bundled with are awesome

5. i absolutely love my little tiny laptop, it never leaves my side

if i think of more i'll tell you!
