If all PC users can claim is that macs only have a one button mouse, thats pretty sad.

I'm a mac and PC user. The ups, and downs of macs as I see them for a college student like myself:

mac plusses-
faster
easier to use
no problems with worms, trojans, or viruses
works better with design and graphics programs

mac minuses-
costs more
not as many programs (games are the biggest loss. You can almost always find a mac equivalent of the other important programs, eg accounting, work processing, design, etc.)

I use a 14' iBook when I'm at school. No complaints, except friends PC laptop doesn't play nice with my copy of myth. But there are plenty of other people to beat, so I'm not too bummed.
