PC = Personal Computer. Mac OS = the Operating System used by Apple's Macintosh computers. X86 = A 32 bit processor. Originally the name came from Intel's 8086 processor which was a 16 bit processor but the name X86 is now used to denote a processor that can handle 32 bit and 16 bit instructions. X64 = A 64 bit processor sometimes known as an X86-64 as they can handle 16, 32 and 64 bit instructions.
