"In the 1970s and '80s, Apple created the first great personal computers."

That's B.S. One could claim the same thing about Commodore or IBM. One could argue that the Mac GUI was revolutionary. However, Xerox was simultaneously developing a similar interface. (Some accuse Jobs of stealing their interface for the Mac, which may or may not be true.)

"Your Windows computer crashes more often than your Mac computer because.."

More B.S. Windows computers don't crash more than Macs. I beg someone to show me real proof (not just anecdotal evidence) that's true.

" And why is your PC glutted with viruses and spyware?"

If that's true of your PC computer, you just aren't paying attention. A host of inexpensive and well developed applications are available to keep your computer free of viruses, etc.

Just because there aren't enough Macs in the world for hackers to bother writing viruses for does not make Macs better...

It would be nice if Manjoo could write an unbiased article that mentions Apple or Macintosh. His view of PCs consistently seems to imply that PC users are clueless dipshits for using anything other than an Apple. I find this insulting and annoying.
