The actual hardware is no different to any high quality PC.
The big difference is in the operating system - OSX rather than Windows.
Note that Programs & applications etc. Are written/compiled to work with a specific operating system. Programs written for Windows will not run on a Mac and vice-versa.
Some are available for both systems, others are not.
You can get alternate web browsers such as Chrome if you are used to that rather than the built in one (Safari), and anything purely web-based will work pretty much the same on any machine with a web browser.
I have a couple of Macs but they are used for specific things - one for music software and the other for programming.
There are a lot of games etc. Available, but not as many as for Windows.
There's a Steam version to run on Macs.
If there's any software you *must* have, look at the makers site and see if there's a Mac version.
Macs do tend to be far more stable and reliable than Windows based systems. The operating system is based on a version of Unix, which has file security built in at the most basic levels.
There are millions of times less viruses for macs than for windows and it's just about impossible for any virus or malicious software to do any low-level damage to the operating system.
