Mac has imbedded keyboard. So if you spill coffee, you will have to say Good Bye to your Mac.

 

Mac doesn't have BIOS. That could cause you troubles in case of Mac problems.

Did you ever boot and work on Mac? Mac have Open Firmware instead of ancient BIOS and IF problem occurs we still can boot using Verbose mode. You know UNIX, right? BTW, picture says it all:

Macs just reel you in with stuff like photobooth. Go PC!

 

Unlike Win PC and Hackintosh Mac OSX, I can regularly boot as native: Mac OSX, Win (XP or 7) and UNIX. Therefore I can play or run any stuff like any Win PC user. But the crucial thing is to use strength of Mac OSX system.

This picture says: when you have a problem with your car, you are not allowed to access it so as to repair it. Or possibly Mac never breaks?

Ans you have only one button! What if I want more? Mac is hard to customize for yourself.

As about BIOS.. it's old, that's right. However, in my opinion this Open Firmware can't replace BIOS at present. There are a lot of problems with MacBook's EFI. For example, it is situated on HDD, that's why it can be erased accidentally. And in EFI it is impossible to configure a boot order, at least on MacBook (you can only set the bootable HDD). Unfortunately, this subsitute for BIOS is inconvenient.

* This picture says: when you have a problem with your car, you are not allowed to access it so as to repair it. Or possibly Mac never breaks?

 

If break go to in service and let the experts do the job.

 

* Ans you have only one button! What if I want more? Mac is hard to customize for yourself.

 

Mac Pro, maybe? This is only real desktop Mac.

 

* And in EFI it is impossible to configure a boot order, at least on MacBook (you can only set the bootable HDD). Unfortunately, this subsitute for BIOS is inconvenient.

 

Press 'C' for boot from DVD or press Options key while Boot and just choose boot from hard, DVD or USB. Hard enough for you?

 

Let be real. When we talk about Win and Mac PC, we actually talk about system. Mac OSX is de facto today best and andvanced OS. Plag and Play and not Plag and Pray. They just works. 8)
