To buy the entire Microsoft company will cost billions of dollars whereas a Mac computer can be bought for a lot less. Microsoft is a software company and a Mac is a computer. The two are not comparable.
If you are talking about whether it is cheaper to buy a Mac with the highest version of Mac OS X (Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard) than it is to buy a PC with the highest version of Microsoft Windows (Windows 7), then buying a PC is much cheaper than buying a Mac.
Many boast that Mac is a severe waste of money because the quality of their product is the same/lower than Microsoft's products. Mac tries to appeal to the consumer with easy to use/cool programs, as Microsoft actually tries to sell the product.

It will depend what you are trying to achieve and how you define better. If software is written to use Microsoft's Windows system and is not available for Apple's Mac OS then Windows would be better.

If you are looking for a cheaper, virus free, trouble free computing experience then Mac OS would be your choice.
