IT Support
Our IT support guy has been in the job since 1979, and never misses an opportunity to pick up a mouse and say "Hello computer" into it, Star Trek-style. Tell us your tales from the IT support cupboard, either from within or without.

I pay for my own computer
It's a Mac. I have several Macs actually, two of which are in regular use and the rest are just taking up space in my house.
PCs are more compatible, yes. But only with themselves. Macs are in general PC compatible these days.
Neither is 'better', per se. It's all a preference thing. Apple manufactures hardware and system software, and keeps it tightly controlled, so the chances of Macs going wrong due to conflicts are much less. But it does mean that you can't build a Mac from scratch, or buy a cheap one. And there are certain software packages which aren't available for Mac, including many games.
Each to his own.
