Stop going onto naughty pages and you won't have problems with that  I'll say one thing, mac could be better for image editing because of all the programs interlocking. But the last time I tried to edit pics on a mac I obviusly clicked something completely wrong, so upside, good for mixing programs, downside impossible to use And I think I could do all that without lag, none ofthose things seem very server heavy really.

Now, Think of the price and mobility.
I paid $2000 SGD for my macbook white. Light, durable, portable, Built in Wifi and bluetooth, Sophos antivirus, iWorks and iLife pre installed.
A windows laptop with those features and photoshop and dreamweaver to replace iLife and iWorks will cost ~$2600 SGD

All at the same time with no lag at all. Get a PC with the same specs as a Mac and you can do it too?..

The reason for less viruses is because the ones who make viruses feel bad for the mac users who already have a crappy computer

Give a 12 Yeaold a Platform to code on and they will code ;D The reason why Mac's Have less viruses, is becuse they are socialy Exclusive. If you cant afford one. You cant buy one. Hence you cant learn to code on one. Hence you cant Code Virus's. Why do andiod phones have more Viruses than IPHONE's ? Becuse android OS is free and ANYONE can get hold of it
