My roommate has a Mac, and it sure crashes a lot more than my Amiga, and it doesn't give you an error number like the Amiga when it GURUs, it just locks up or reboots itself.  Plus, I've never seen more people get viruses than Mac people.  True, the Mac's windowing interface was more powerful, but not now that the Amiga has 2.0.  And at least on the Amiga the color icons don't look like colorized line art.  Also, the hard drives built into Macs crash easily.  Quantums never do.
