It depends on their reasons, and most of the times it's absolute crap.JigglyWiggly_

Windows - OS

Apple - Brand of PC

what's there to argue?

Buy a PC,install OSX on it. Problem solved.MonsieurX

PC>Mac

nuff said.

im an engineer. more importantly an aerospace engineer. i need more buttons, more access to my OS. when i can start running all that software effieciently on a mac at a competitive price, ill consider switching. im college our teachers would often show us programs and that are frequently used in industry, then give us a license code to use them on our own computers. invariably someone would ask if it works on a mac, which was invariably responded with a laugh

for mp3 player? zune (RIP).

for travel, ipad2 is just about the best thing i could ever ask for when traveling

Off Topic: dat avatar TC :o

also, i dont think either is superior to either. both win7 and OS X are incredibly good Operating Systems. both have pros and cons, and both are suited for some people more than others. as for me, im a videographer and photpgrapher so i have a macbook where i do all my editing (and am using right now) but i also have a desktop PC which i use regularly to play and mod games on. both perform great for whatever i want to do.

yeah. Macs are the best.

is there any basis behind this assertation of just blind fanboyism.

I'm sure Apple is fine but i'm more familiar with Windows. I like to build and upgrade my computers and Apple doesn't like that.

I tell them to quit being a ******* sheep and do their own research.

Linux for the win.

I guess you didn't get the joke.

In terms of laptops, a Macbook is superior IMO. They get much better battery life than Windows laptops. However, for desktops, I'd rather build one myself and dual boot Windows 7 and Ubuntu.

I can't see myself buying a Mac only because of how much it costs compared to a PC with the same stats. I was considering a Mac Mini since I can just hook it up to my TV with an HDMI cable but even then I doubt it would be worth it.

Mac users try to pass them selves off as more cultured, intelligent and sophisticated than a PC user but a brief conversation about hardware and or programming will quickly expose that they are the more ignorant of the two and usually are posers/hipsters wannabe nerds... you know the type that wears glasses but can see perfectly.Grey_Eyed_Elf

In years past, sure. Windows based laptops have caught up.

I think people who simply don't understand much about computers are better off with OS X. It's simpler.. and I found doing typical things like browsing the internet to be a better experience.SolidSnake35

Oh how I wish this were true. The silly compalints I get at work from Mac users, man.

"Is my internet compatible with a Mac?"

apple has its perks over windows, but ive used both for years, and i strongly prefer windows, its a personal preferance in the end, both can be used to do anything which you so choose

As a programmer that works with all (most) of the major platforms (windows, mac, linux, bsd) let me give you my OBJECTIVE opinion. ...... Wait for it.....

NEITHER IS BETTER THEN THE OTHER

They all have pros and cons and it comes down to what you need/want in your computer. My primary home computers are Macs. My friends always say, I wanna get a Mac soon. The first thing I ask them is, "Why? What are you gonna use it for?" And I would ask the same thing if someone was looking to get windows or linux.

PCs are more affordable, have better support, customization and are better for gaming.

MACs are more reliable, better security, performance, have a better UI, is better for development, and is built on top of unix so its better for programming.

Linux is free, open source, gives users more control of the system.

BSD is great for running reliable servers.

It all comes down to what you need.

I know kids these days who don't even know what landline is, or what plugs into the telephone jack. My neice was at her friends and called me cause they couldn't get the internet to work. I asked if the ethernet line was plugged in the back of the pc to the modem. She asked what was ethernet? I said it is a line that looks like a bigger telepone connector. She said internet dosen't come from the electric lines, it comes from the sky! I hung up.CreasianDevaili
