Okay, I was not sure where I should put this message at, so I decided the other forum would work.

Simple question here, basically opinionated answer.

I have always disliked every product that Apple has put forth onto the market, mainly because I believe the only reason they are selling computers and other devices is due to the "advertisements" and "popularity."

I am looking for reasons why building your own PC is much better than a Mac, performance wise, and price wise...

I know that Macs tend to be more efficient in the multimedia fields, but is the price per performance better for a PC?

I'll second that notion.

But you did come to the right place for opinionated answers...

What's stopping you from building your own Mac?
