Technically, you're right.
In practice, "PC" means "IBM-compatible PC", which Macs weren't until a few years ago. And since the ecosystems are so dramatically different between the platforms, "PC" and "Mac" -- when used together in context -- don't overlap.
The only exception is that you can still say you do PC gaming if you use a Mac, because in THAT context it's "PC" and "console" rather than "PC" and "Mac." Again, this is a question of context.
