Which is better for Game design and programming? iMac or PC?

hey guys, i'm incoming freshmen year , need computer college programming capabilities. know little computers unfortunately hoping guys give me pros , cons of both. maybe give idea of i'm looking for, want able make things flash animations, amvs, logos , graphics, etc. whole cigar speak.

 

another person had same question elsewhere post same response-

have completed first year of computer science , did not use pc (or bootcamp partition on mbp) once. you'll learning lot of things in linux environment, using mac on unix architecture mirroring this. there many of languages built unix dont have download more software or windows side. focused on python , java in first year here , watching friends program in windows environment laughable. required more programs , annoying code run command line. python interpreter built os x, java, no java sdk or required, console/terminal in mac same linux 1 , more readable , easy remember commands (just opinion albeit) windows command line.

actual programming, eclipse far best thing java (its cheating), , others can written in text editor (i prefer gedit or emacs).

went full blown macbook pro, did want power non-programming things well, of 15" mbp's suit fine. tell going computer science- pay upgrade high-res anti-glare display- you'll shooting in fluorescent lit lecture halls , such if have glossy (by far best upgrade did)

hope helps!
