Thanks for the input everyone. IS there something in particular I should look for to determine I got a good PC and it runs fast? I do not trust the people at Best Buy they screwed me a few times.

SSD.
Do you live in Baton Rouge? You're looking for a desktop? Tell me your budget and I'll build you one.

No man. Unfortunately I am in Alabama at the moment. Thanks for the offer though.

Tell me exactly what you're looking for (desktop/laptop, usage, monitor?, etc) and what you're looking to spend, and I'll try to find an out-of-the-box solution.

Get the Mac... If you have a couple of applications that are not compatible and absolutely critical, snag a copy for VMware Fusion and run it in Windows on top of OS X.

Jesus. You people think just by turning it on you will get viruses.
Don't be a dumbass with your PC and you won't get viruses.

I'll agree with you on this one... Don't be a dumbass, and you're going to be OK.

Go with a Lenovo all-in-one desktop. Reliable, affordable, simple. Plus it cuts down on your wires a little bit. As far as I can tell Microsoft Security Essentials (Windows native antivirus) does a good job with protection.
A good gaming desktop is a big investment.

Get the Mac, you'll love it. If not you have 30 days to return it.

I cant tell if you people are trolling the OP or just stupid.

and when you want to upgrade your HD to SSD, you'll need to buy a whole new machine...Same with any other components in an AIO...Bad idea

True. I've been running a Windows 7 machine for over three years without any viruses. And I wasn't even wearing a condom.

Nah, just an idiot.
The OP doesn't seem like he's interested in anything fancy or complicated. Obviously anything you get should have a solid state HD, so no need to upgrade that in a few years. If you really want something to game on, this is clearly not the answer. Though I don't see the problem with getting the Lenovo for a family computer.

I was a PC user from the 80's to 2010. I switched to macs in 2010 and bought my son a PC this past Christmas. Returned the PC two weeks later and bought him a Mac. There is no comparison between the two.
