Assuming its compatible with both...

I think the chances of it not being compatible are pretty much zero, things are pretty standardized these days.

So? Its the principle of the argument.

I think a mac is a mac not a PC. Just the way I define them, If i say PC im not talking about a mac. They may be PC,s in others eyes but in mine they will always be a dreaded mac.

Pinter discovered this add in a Wired magazine at my house, which might shed some light on the subject.

Macs are still slower at a much higher price point, though:

I don't think that any of us are arguing that Mac's are good in any way. We are just discussing the meaning of the letters PC.

ya ive come to the conclusion of "what the hell are we bickering about". This is getting funnier and funnier. I still stand by that a mac is a mac. But I also stand by that it doesnt have to have Windows on it to be a PC. It can be running Linux and still be a PC. A Mac has only Mac products in it whiel a PC can have a variaty of different brands in it.
