Well First of all Mac uses TOTALLY different methods ( like Binary structure etc.. ) then IBM computers ( The common computers we use at home ) They won't let you install Windows on them ( you can but its more difficult, because you need to emulate it )

They are much more powerful than IBM

They are different too, because the MAC wanted to make everything on it's own, their own software, their own hardware etc.. not like IBM

And several other differences

I don't know if I understood your question and answered the right answer

It explains it all ...Macs use a different software and binary code and thus it makes it difficult to operate some programs. that are not mac compatable
