and it crashes more than my 6-year-old PC. How do I optimise the performance of my Mac and how much will it cost me? It's a macbook 13-inch if that will help. Also, is there a 'My Computer' equivalent on the Mac? How do I find it?
So I bought a mac....

That will help you with the my computer part.
Is your mac used or new?

BRAND new out of the damn box...
It's specifications can be found here, however, a normal desktop can surpass it by a lot...

Maybe it's its processor?

I think 'Finder' is the 'My Computer' of apples.
I may be wrong.

yep finder is my comp
if its crashing do this
finder--->utilities----> disk utility ---> the top disk selection (eg mine says 250.6GB WDc...)
----> verify disk permissions ----> repair disk permission -----> repair disk
while its repairing disk, DO NOT EVEN LOOK AT THE COMPUTER!
let it do its thing
after thats done : shut down and switch back on (dont restart the mb cos the hard disk doesnt restart)

Alright, I re-installed OS-X and then repaired the disk and I haven't had any problems. Thanks everyone for the help, it's appreciated
