I've used Macs for just over 10 years now and I don't think I'd buy another one. They're overpriced and poorly designed. I've had hard drive issues in every Mac I've owned. Laptop and desktop. I've had power supply issues in 2 iMac and a motherboard give out in one of them. Most recently the superdrive, which I rarely if ever use, has given up the ghost.
I attribute all these problems to poor design which cause the machines to run incredibly hot.
Other than upgrading RAM, which they charge an arm and a leg for, Apple also makes it incredibly difficult to actually fix any of their stuff on your own. If you do decide to buy a Mac, make sure you spend the extra and buy the extra warranty. You will need it.
