Default mac apps

You might have heard that apple also introduced a few new apps, like Keynote (presentation soft), safari( web browser) and others. They want to be the middle of the entertainment (multimedia) hub and are succeeding.
More games are coming to the mac. Some programs that were on both sides have went to the mac side only.

It is true that there isn't a lot of games for the Mac. But they are coming from the PC side. In some instances they come on both systems at the same time. Unreal is on the mac as well as the pc.

Now for software, Look at any computer website that also sells macs, and you can find 1000s of programs. On the mac you have all the basic software that the pc has. The mac has Microsoft Office, Photoshop, internet browsers, and many other programs. What the pc has the mac has generally. The main genres on the PC the Mac has.
The iApps are the best. How many of you use the movie maker that windows comes with? Now how many people would like to us iMovie and iDVD?
The last Star Wars movie, Episode 2, used Macs for some of the scenes. Now could you do that with windows computers.

You are right, but Linux programs are usually free anyways. The majority of computers out there are windows based. I am just comparing the windows computer and the mac.
Another thing is that you can get linux for the mac also.
