Why do people prefer windows pc over mac

This might be an age old question but do read the answer below. It is because people need computers for different purposes.

If I am ready to compromise on little price differential than other online stores; provided that online store is giving me better offer than any brick store than I would prefer to buy online from eg want to purchase MacBook then my options would be: 1) Amazon - The best store.

Here you have to keep few points in mind as transaction amount for MacBook is high. I recently purchased a MacBook Air from Paytm and this is what I
