Originally designed as an educational tool in the 70's it was marketed as the first computer small and cheap enough to be owned by individual consumers. Touted as the first "personal computer" and simple enough that a child could learn to operate they gained contracts with U.S. schools. They had 2 main competitors IBM which focused on business applications and Commodore who focused on entertainment (games and media).
As each improved it's side applications Commodore had trouble in the market as businesses leaned heavier on IBM and Apple had contracts with the U.S. educational systems. People saw games and media as frivolous and Commodore filed bankruptcy. However Apple snatched up bits of it and started to develop visual media which is still it's bragging point today.
IBM set it's sights on international markets and set a standard for clones and compatible systems working with Microsoft they developed the windows operating system and truly became personal computers globally.
Apple, although making models for individuals, has somehow gone to market as simply "Apple" all others systems are called PC (personal computers).
A closer look shows this to be true. IBM compatible computers have programs written by anyone and used by individual preference.
Apple is developed by Apple, licensed by Apple and largely slow or incompatible with any other systems They cost 2-3 times more and have a cult like following of hipsters and people who think they know more than everyone else.

Look how nice that Apple Computer looks on my desk.
I fell asleep and drooled on my Apple Computer, I'm glad it's drool proof.
Let me calculate the sum of 4 and 2 with my Apple Computer.

A wonderful company that sells amazing products like Macs, iPods, and software. Products sold from Apple Computers are almost always stunning, fast, powerful, and rarely crash or cause other problems. Apple's main product, the Macintosh computer, is argueably the best computer in the world (specifically the G5). It runs on OS X, but is highly compatable, too. It is also equipped with a UNIX core, accessable through the Terminal. Basically it totally kicks microsoft's pathetic butt.
Jennifer- I bought a brand new iMac G5 and iPod Photo at Apple Computers, and i still cant get over how well they work!
Joe- oh really? i just bought a new PC at some dumb PC retailer and it really..... uhm.... sucks. yea.... it crashes alot and likes displaying the blue screen of death...

A computer that never crashes, and is now UNIX-based. They look good, are easy to use, and are fun. You can be more productive with an Apple Computer. Apple Computers last much longer than PCs.
My Apple Computer is six years old, cost me $1000 new, but is faster than my one-month old Windows PC. It even runs OS X and burns DVDs!

Apple is a company that some consider to be superior to Microsoft when it comes to computers. Macs are for the Rich bastards out there who are to busy buying Disney stock to want to deal with the crazy shenanigans that a PC will throw at you. (especially if that PC is using Vista, which tends to get paranoid about running programs). Macs are also better for porn, because they just dont get virus's. Seeing a Trojan virus on a mac is the computerized equivalent to seeing flying pigs playing croquet on pluto. PC's however, are good for playing world of warcraft...wait...mac can do that........um...ok...Pc's are good for shooting zombies, playing RTS genere games, and basicly losing I.Q points by the second.
The virdict
Mac's good for everything except games
PC's are good for the adventurous people willing to deal with the demon that is windows. And for gaming of course

Mac- "Hi, im a mac"
PC- "And im a PC"
......it is forcing me to put the word "Apple Computers" in this example...but i cant do that without being more biased than i previously was
