Meh whatever you want i have snow leopard (the one before lion right?) and i could update but i just dont see the point really.

and pc means personal computer... which means "is any general-purpose computer whose size, capabilities, and original sales price make it useful for individuals"

there fore mac= a pc.

i'd say so. snow leopard isn't bad but the user interface of lion is fantastic. if you're looking for an easy, genuinely enjoyable computer experience then lion is an excellent choice.

i think Lion is better than Snow Leopard but they're both dope so whatever works for you budget-wise

i have snow leapord and my bros got lion. there's really not much difference. lion has some little things like being able to do fullscreen apps, swiping to the side to other windows and such. but really lion mostly just looks cooler. but thats just me, i could see why someone wants it, but personally i dont think its too awesome.

You are too young to understand why Mac's are the better best.

I'll make it simple for when you turn 18....

1) You can look at all the porn you want
2)No Viruses
3)All Porn, No Virus
4)Decreases amount of rape in merica because more porn, less hornyness
5)No viruses when looking at porn



That's why I got a mac. Fucking love it. I'm about to look up porn in like 5 minutes. I can go to any site that has a virus that you won't visit. And I'll enjoy it.
