Apple Mac OS X

2006-09-26 17:07:44 · answer #1 · answered by Elbert 7 · 0 0

It's really not so much an issue about the computer itself as the operating system. Any reputable brand of personal computer is going to have about the same hardware. The OS is what takes that hardware and makes a COMPUTER; and in this respect there is nothing that comes close to Mac OS X. Windows is an unbelievable confusing pile of shxt. (Why is it, that to set up a network printer in Windows, do you tell it to set up a local printer on a network port? WTF is that?!?)

Mac OS X has all the stability and flexibility of Unix or Linux (in fact, it *is* BSD Unix) along with all the shiny fancy bits of the traditional Mac OS. I can even run ancient Mac OS programs on my brand new Mac Mini; and if I completely lose my mind I can even choose to run Windows on it... or BSD, or Linux, whatever.

So if you are looking to buy a computer and you want the freedom to try stuff out, buy a Mac. Then decide for yourself.

I work for Dell actually and ill tell you this, dont buy into the mac "multimedia" aspect, they give a some basic music/movie/photo software and call it a multimedia power house(not true at all), truth is when you buy a mac your actually buying inferior components(compared to a pc), you actually pay for the operating system. Window is used by 97% of the world, and most popular software is written for PC. Get a custom built Dell, run half the price and twice as much material as the mac, if you dont believe me, head down to the mac store and those new Dell direct store and compare the specs.

Dell all the way.
Before, I used to have to by a new one every three years but my current desktop is already 6 years old (I'll have to send it to first grade soon:) and it works outstandingly well (consider that I'm a gamer and it still carries the new game with dignity even though I have never changed it''s hardware or reinstalled Win)

As for Windows, I would have changed to Linux ages ago if I didn't need it for my games...

in the adventure that your MacBook relies on the Intel chipset, then you definitely ought to run the two MacOS or homestead windows. in case you upload some third-celebration utility, you additionally can run them the two on a similar time. Why might you want homestead windows? nicely, the only reason i like having it is for some very fabulous courses I ought to run. Others ought to have a very massive investment in homestead windows utility they might't purely throw out. Others ought to desire homestead windows. Vista has a firewall (as does XP). It has extra aggresive secure practices settings than its predecessors. a lot of people discover it particularly annoying and swap it right down to the place it somewhat is somewhat pointless. so an prolonged way as virus matters, Macs are not immune, yet they have continuously had a extra appropriate secure practices sort than homestead windows from the initiating. Vista is approximately as undesirable XP in this regard...you nonetheless ought to have some third-celebration virus secure practices to be incredibly secure. the main suitable gadget i've got ever had for working homestead windows is my modern iMac. Apple somewhat went above and previous offering the needed drivers to make XP artwork appropriate on Apple hardware.
