Editor's Note: It is true that there are many less virus problems when using a Mac compared to a Windows based system, but there are viruses created for both operating systems. Always use anti virus software and be cautious when downloading files from websites or emails.
At my son's urging I replaced my XP with a MAC a little over a year ago. I could not believe how much better and easier it was! Once you try a MAC, you will never go back.
We've have owned Macs since they first came out, & we have never had a virus or worm with one of them. They are fantastic! I can't imagine not having a Mac.
My daughter and new son-in-law both swear by their Macs. However, until they create my screen-reader for Mac systems, I'll have to stick with MS. Unfortunately! AVG and lots of caution keep me safe.
My son had been urging me to change to a MacBook Pro, and in January 2009 I made the switch. I am so addicted to this machine that I would never go back to a pc. I use a 24" flat monitor from Costco, an Apple keyboard and mouse. My laptop is my hard drive and when I'm at home I use the accessories. But when I take a trip, I unplug 4 things and take my laptop with me. Amazing technology that puts Microsoft in the backseat as far as I'm concerned.
