Sorry repost

 

Emulate? the first computer EVER was a mac. Apple actually Built the first windows OS for Microsoft. Mac software is a lot more user friendly and do things better then a PC could ever do. PDF's? are u serious? basically ANYTHING u create on a mac can be turned into a PDF with 1 click. Spreadsheets are a different story. Huge spreadsheets is the only reason Microsoft Office still sells the way it does. If it wasn't for Macros iWork would be a better Office Application.

and yes RIGHT NOW corporate america is MOSTLY PC's. But I'm an Apple Solutions Consultant straight from corporate and let me tell you, that soon that will change. A lot of schools are switching back to Macs and corporations are following right behind them. Y do u think the 2.0 iPhone software is going to be Exchange and Lotus notes compatible?

 

I guarantee if you trade in your PC for a mac and take time to learn the OS. you will NEVER EVER touch a PC EVER again. unless of course your a gamer. then you will have to install Windows on a Mac. Which it runs better on a mac then it does on a PC anyway

I bet half the people talking **** about Macs haven't even tried learning the OS and seeing both worlds with an Open Mind. I worked at the Geek Squad for 2 years before switching over to Mac. I knew everything about windows there was to know (well most of it anyway) and when Vista was released that was the last straw. I opened up my mind and walked into an Apple store and it changed my world. I asked every question there was to ask and was impressed. I bought one, took it home, and fell in love with OS X. As soon as there was a position in Corporate sales in Apple I left Geek Squad and jumped on it.

 

mac ftw And yes, vista runs better on the intel mac then it does on a PC. HAHA

Yes vista may run better on a mac than some pc's, but the prices Mac charges for hardware are just stupid. OpenMacs are selling for a fraction of the price of "authentic" Mac machines and the hardware specs are nearly exactly the same. If it were'nt for that I woudn't have any real problem with Mac, but the way they rape you on hardware is just dumb.

 

[align=center]ALL OF THIS IS REFERENCING THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN MAC AND PC'S !OUT OF THE BOX![/align]

i have had lots of experience with macs and pc's and if your just using a computer day to day for moderate tasks and very LIGHT online usuage then a pc is just fine

BUT...

Macs have many other features that are way better than PC. 99% of computer users started learning how to use a computer on a PC. when they go to try a mac they find it very different and aside from their price tag thats why so many people dislike Mac. They get intimidated because its basic functioning and feautres are weird and there is no right mouse buttonpussee...

I have never had my Mac SLOW down or get laggy or anything like that. i never see a pop-up EVER!!! and can look at **** all day and never worry about anything happening. Even with a regular cable internet ihavenever had a single screwup online that a PC has...

O and they do definetly work better for audio/visual productions. much more compatible with periphereals and everything they do is smoother and cleaner.

Apple though expensive does a really good job advancing there products. much more so than Dell or HP or any of those companies.And COME ON! if your in here whining about Macs prices and your driving an audi...

SHUT YOURDAMN MOUTH!


Also, i have played several "high demand" games on my MAC and only the ones thatever closed down on mewere lowsy demo downloads or other non boughten games. any legitimate bought games works perfectly on a MAC, that is if you bought the upgraded graphics prossesor, which PC's dont give you an option of. You have to put it in yourself in amost cases.

 

u may THINK that Apple is overcharging, but what you don't realize is that Mac OS X DOES NOT NEED 4GB of ram just to run the damn OS like vista does! the only reason Vista machines have 4GB of ram is because it NEEDS it! And 90% of Apple computers have FASTER processors then most PC's that you buy in retail stores... and do you REALLY need 1TB of HDD space? Macs come from 160GB-320GB HDD without any configuration. With configuration you can add up to a TB (depending on which mac your buying)

The REAL value of Apple products is the innovation and ease of use of the operating system and software. The OS runs A LOT faster and its EASIER to do most of the things on a mac. This saves time. Time is money. so you save money! Another Value is the software! If you compare iLife (which comes on every mac) to that GARBAGE that Vista machines come with you will see why Apple is better. Movie Maker vs iMovie? c'mon iMovie FTMFW! Garageband, iPhoto, iWeb, iDVD, may I need say more?

Macs come with EVERYTHING YOU COULD POSSIBLY WANT as far as software! The only thing u need to buy is iWork to do your documents and **** or the Professional software if your into that type of stuff... But other then that... it just works from the minute u turn it on. oh and they look a lot better too

 

there is a right click... you just have to enable secondary click on the right side of the mouse in system preferences... the right click isn't on by default... but it is there

 

ummm OpenMacs can't get software updates.... so u can't get any of the Leopard updates... so whats the point?

plus They are about to get sued by Apple because no other company but Apple is allowed to sell OS X installed

 

who is most popular and editor's top choice?
