MAC and Windows run on two different types of software, so there is no way to install the Mac OS on a PC. However, Mac recently came out with a dual booting computer, meaning that it can run Windows. As well, Mac has a program called "Virtual PC" that simulates Windows on Mac OS.\nTo sum it up, if you want the Mac OS, looks like youd better buy a new Mac.

I've used Remote Desktop, which comes with the MS Office suite, to access Windows PCs from my Mac.

Mac's in general are more stable then windows that's for sure!! OS x is an excellent OS.

My only comment is that Microsoft stole from Apple .  Mac was using "windows" many years  before we even heard of Bill Gates or his company.

Yes.\n\n"Works with both PC and Mac computers"\n\nLet me know if this is the best answer.  Hope it helps!

It depends on the age of your mac.  The most recent series of macs have been built with Intel processors, built on the x86 architecture (the same as PC's), and so they are compatible with Windows.  Mac has gone even further, and introduced software called bootcamp that will help you install Windows on your mac.\n\nPlease see the link below for more information, and to download the software.

AutoCAD Anybody?\n\nThis strategy by Apple addresses the "classic case" of inability to adopt Mac. The classic case is this: I can run every piece of software I need natively on Mac OS X, except for the one I need the most.\n\nFor many in the CAD world, this happens to be AutoCAD. Yet, for others it happens to be programs like SolidWorks, CATIA, Pro/E and others. Maybe a user wants to use Autodesk's 3D Studio Max. All of this is possible now at native -- and very attractive -- speeds.\n\nThis isn't the same thing as native solutions for OS X. And that is what Mac users ultimately want. But for now, this is Apple's latest big move in its efforts to win the hearts and wallets of folks frustrated with the Windows computing experience.

buy a mac. your life will be simple. EVERY program a mac comes with (iLife: iTunes, iPhoto, iMovie, iDVD, safari, etc) works perfectly among themselves. Never a problem making a slideshow so to say and needing pictures movies and some music. Just beautiful! And some windows programs are being made to run on a Mac, such as Office and things like that. But my money is on the fact that you can get a Boot disk that allows you to run winows on your mac. For those programs you cannot live without and do not run on a Mac. That program is known as Boot Camp. So all in all there doesnt seem to be any bad coming out of the mac. Because the one downfall for some people was before "theres no games out for Mac" but now with Boot Camp you can run your windows programs. I Hope That helped.

If you intend to use software like NORTON, make sure (on the package) its compatible with MAC/OS X. \n\nIf you would like to run windows applications on a MAC you cant, unless you use this new application from APPLE known as BOOT CAMP, which runs windows on a mac.\n\nhttp://www.apple.com/macosx/bootcamp/\n\nHope this helps!

Mac OS is the operating system for the Macintosh computers.  It probably will not  work on a PC, or at best very poorly.\n\nIf you want an alternative OS, you could try the UNIX world.  There are many variants but they work very much the same.  Most are pricey but LINUX is free.  If you have been working strictly in Windows, you will find that these are aimed at keyboard specialists.  They do come with GUI interfaces, but their strength lies in the greater variability of the written word as opposed to the point and shoot characteristics of Windows.\n\nIf you are interested but unsure, try operating your computer in DOS mode for a while and see if suits your style.  I have no idea how to get here (Yahoo Answers) from DOS since my ISP is strictly GUI.

Macs will never come back over Windows, mostly because no one wants to learn a new program.  Plus a lot of professional programs are windows based, so switching to a different operating system is just not an option for most consumers.  Macs are crazy expensive too.  I would never buy one, even though I appriciate the rejection of windows.

If you don't want to install XP, then unfortunately there's now way you can run MS Flight Simulator on your Mac.  I would suggest you switch to X-Plane; it's a popular cross-platform flight simulator.\nhttp://www.x-plane.com/default.html\nhttp://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/games/demos_updates/xplane.html

Yes you can run both Windows XP and Mac OS X (not at the same time) on the newer Apple computers (macbook, macbook pro, Imac, mac mini).\nThey now use Intel Processors, so you can install XP on them, then choose which one to boot from.\nTo do so, you can download and install a program called BootCamp (about 85MB or so)  on the Mac, which allows you to boot from either XP or Mac OS X. \nYou can also buy macs with XP preinstalled already at macmall.com.\nYou can't install Mac OS X on a Windows PC, however.\n\nHope this helps.
