Well I got this noob question to ask.
I have seen that Bucky as a really good tutorial maker & a few other people on Youtube who make good tutorials on web design and stuff always use Apple Mac computers is there a actual reason for this? Why apple mac? Are they better for web design?

i only do it because apple only lets you develop iphone programs on the mac and no other computer. you cant on windows or anything. Also, a lot of people say they cant get a virus. They are a lot safer than pcs but still are most likely not virus free. mostly its just preference like ford vs Toyota. both have their benefits and drawbacks, no one is better than the other, just preference

More like ford vs chevy (go chevrolet). Anyway one of my friends made a small virus. He didn't say what it did but it was on a mac. The only thing is that mac doesn't have a large (compared to windows anyway) customer base. I still prefer PC's over anything.

I'm using my Mom's Mac right now and I can't say that I see anything special besides the fact that you can do Obective-C programming on it. Right now, I prefer Windows over Mac, but I'll probably buy myself a Mac in the future once I get the money. Still too young for job, though. Just one more year!

When you're paying a premium for something, you would expect something better, right. So, if you can't notice anything "special", what would you possess you to buy one? Is it just because Apple is "kool" and you've to have one to be "kool"?
