What is your preference for computers, a PC or MAC? and why?
I've had both but the MAC is fairly new to me, I've only had it for one school year(sounds long but not when doing school work)...I have some mixed feelings, but some swear by one or the other fully and not sure why? I like things about both, however, for school, everyone has a MAC so it was just easier with assignments. Some people say the MAC is better for creativity, however, I'm not doing design or film so I haven't seen too much of that side. Any really cool things you can do with one and not the other?
As far as I know, MAC is better at designing and graphics, while PC Windows have alot of programs, which most business applications work only on a PC. One thing is quite significant is that the MAC get lesser number of viruses than the PC.
Any day i would prefer PC to MAC because its very economical and more user friendly.........applications as well as games of different types can be easily installed on it.....
For me, I prefer windows PC rather than MAC because most people used it. Besides it is easy to use.
I would also prefer PC because it is more compatible with most of the programs and software out there and you dun need to find a Mac version every time you bought a new software. Save a lot of hassle!!
I actually just work a hub on this earlier today! Feel free to read it my unbiased view on it!

Should I buy a mac rather than a pc laptop, even though a mac is more expensive?I need a new computer. My boyfriend keeps telling me that Apple computers are far more reliable, faster and better than any PC, but they are a couple of hundred pounds more expensive. Is it worth it?
