Macintosh or PC

[Neemo]

Now, a Mac can run Windows, so you can have the benefits of a Mac and still have what you want from Windows. Is the opposite true? No, you are stuck with Windows, which as everyone knows, has new security gaps literally every month. I have colleagues at work who switched? from Macs to PC a fews years back for fear of losing IT support (which never happened), and now they regret their decision. So, while Macs may be higher priced, you get what you pay for, and in this case you get a better computer that is easier to use, more versatile, and is a better computer.

Not true...I got OSX to run on my PC...i hated it I went back to Windows XP....one question....why change Machines to use the same OS? Sounds silly to me

Neemo you may have gotten it to run... but not stable..

no it was stable....just for being more "user freindly" it was confusing as hell

I used Macs in college too....they are a pain in the ass IMO

And when was that? Macs are the ultimate in ease of use. If you found them confusing, then the question is why were you in college? And further, why do you think most colleges buy Macs for their computer labs? Because they are easy to use and very intuitive. BTW, did you graduate?

I understand that.. After being a long time pc user it was difficult switching.. you kind of need some 1 to show ya the ropes, but after that is all easy and you will find its much simpler...

And Krispity Kream.. Im pretty sure Neemo Graduated.. Hes like a Architect or sumtin

It is interesting to note that Windows  has been copying Mac technology to make usage easier, as well as graphics, websearch, and audio/visual functions. 
This question will never be settled  once  and for  all. Look at all the old gnr vs new gnr and axl vs slash and on and on. I am confident in my knowledge that Macs are a superior computer. Those who use them, know. For the rest, if  you are happy with your PC, fine, more power  to you. It  is your choice and your money.

And also, at the end of the day it's really only a silly machine.

but macs are sillier

I cant remeber what version of osx i ran...it was a recent one though

and i graduated, jerk my department had pcs cuz autocad doesn't support macs (cuz they suck) I played with the one s in the photography department Cuz I knew someone that was taking photography and i wanted to see how "great" the program was...btw you can get Adobe Photoshop on PC too

I just don't like the layout....but I've been a PC person since DOS so...

as far as i recall, microsoft was paying apple to use certain elements of their operating system...and that apple has also copied some elements of microsoft's operating system in recent years...the fact is that both companies were copying each other...in fact apple nor microsoft invented many of the basic elements of their computers such as the mouse, object oriented programming, wysiwyg etc...they happily copied that off of xerox

as to say that the Mac is superior to the PC...in some ways it may be but overall windows xp wipes the floor with a mac, its faster, both the operating system and its hardware are more configurable, it has more applications, it has better usability and its half the price...and designers, their egos and their macs go well together
