BUT Some windows computers have built in antivirus.

Are there more software applications available for the Mac OS than for Windows-based PCs?
It is not known how many applications are available. As there are more computers that use Windows than Mac OS it is often assumed that there are more applications for Windows systems but the vast majority of these computers are in offices and just use standard Microsoft Office type software (which is also available for the Mac) and so do not expand the market for software applications; indeed to reduce the risk of viral infection most business' prohibit the installation of other software on their computers. Many of the major software companies produce their software in versions for both systems.

How can you get apple computers on retail prices?
There are many reasons to want an Apple computer. They are smart, beautifully engineered, and boast one of the most stable operating systems available. Apple's OS is rarely vulnerable to viruses, and because the software for Apple is purpose designed for the users of that operating system, it is generally easier to interface than some other systems are. If you work in, or even just dabble in graphics, photography, or videography, an Apple computer is a must.
The drawback to owning and Apple is of course that you will have to pay for the engineering and construction. Unlike the cheaply constructed throw away models of the other brands, Apple's computers are durable and worth the price. Which isn't to say there aren't ways to find a bargain. Before you start price shopping determine what you need your computer to do for you. Are you going to be gaming on it? Streaming movies? Editing video? All those will require fast processor speed and definitely a dual processor chip. The most recent iMac, with its flat screen that is also the CPU, is a sleek, sexy solution to those needs. If you are looking for something more basic, just word processing and internet access, a top of the line computer might not be the answer.
When you have made your decision and go shopping, consider not buying new, but refurbished. Refurbished computers are good as new, but because they had to go back to the factory for some repair, they cannot be sold as new, which means a great deal for you. Apple sells refurbished computers, iPods, and more in the Apple store online. You could also find your local repair shop, which will be able to offer a variety of used and refurbished models. We don't recommend buying from local ads or private owners, as you won't know what condition the machine is, or how long it will last for you, unless you are an experienced tech. A reliable repair shop will not only help you answer questions about what machine will be best for you, but if you have the patience, help you wait for the best deal to come through the shop.
