Anyone own a Mac?

[KillaRSox]

I'm thinking about buying a Mac they're just so damn expensive. But from what I heard there are very few problems with them. Anyone have any input on Mac computers?

Bought a minimac on e-bay for $625

Hell you get your money back not having to pay for anti virus software.

Wife has had a Mac for 6 years with no problems and most of all a Mac never gets a virus.

This. And I download the shit out of things. Never once had a problem. I would say the learning curve coming from a PC is about two weeks to get fully adjusted to it but I love it. I have had two macbooks in the past 5 years and the only reason I bought the second one is that I needed an upgrade and I liked the aluminum casing.

Is it worth purchasing the apple extra 3 year warranty plan for $183??? If nobody's having problems with them why buy the extra warranty.....

I have 4 and never had a virus or any problems on any of them.... 2 IMacs one macbook and one macbook pro.

Their laptops are much nicer from personal experience, I can't tell much of a difference from Mac and PC desktops, though.

IMacs are a million times better then PC desktops.... Its not even close.

Once you go Mac you'll never go back.
Have a friend that purchased the 3 year warranty, her iMac was 2 years old and had an issue ( forgot what is was) they replaced it with a new 24inch iMac. She likes the fact you can call them with any little question or issue so for her it was worth it.

Did you buy the warranty on all of them?

The AppleCare package is worth it, IMO. My harddrive failed on my imac after a little over a year but since I purchased AppleCare it was fixed and completely replaced within 24 hours.
