It's no secret (to veterans at least) that Personal Computers (or PCs) have been around since the late 1970's / early 1980's, one there seems to be a "Missunderstanding" of sorts with the term PC as many associate it as being an Windows or Linux powered IBM. Seriously PC is a very "Broad-Spectrum" term with refers to all computers whether it's an IBM or MAC, Desktop or Notebook. PC is NOT a term restricted to any one "Breed" when you truly think about it.
It's pretty clear that there seems to be two main PC Breeds being the IBM (Both Manufacturer and Custom Built) and the Apple Macintosh (MAC), along with whatever else is currently out there (or in development for that matter).
With the IBMs these computers pretty much get their name from their original creators - International Business Machines (IBM) who are still going strong while competing against other manufacters like Dell and HP. Another thing about IBMs is that a lot performance models are being custom built by the users or by businesses who specialize in building models to "Specification", while manufacturers are building their own range/s of Perfomance Models for their "Power-Hungry" clientel.
I'm more or less posting this poll to see roughly which PCs are popular among the world's Gamer population.
Anyway feel free to cast you vote and specify (if you want to let everyone know just what you've got).
