You could really use either for what you do, but since you are familiar with PC, you might as well stick to PC. Grab a Dell, either E520, E521, or E310. If you want more detail, e-mail me with a price range you are looking at and I can help you pick out components.

i've got been around computers for too some years. as quickly as some time past whilst i became youthful and the dinosaur nonetheless walked the earth computers have been whats reported as proprietary. That meant the producer geared up the hardware and the OS and lots of of the needs. the advantages have been; maximum computers have been purely used via companies and that they needed one throat to choke i.e. whilst it went incorrect the producer fastened despite situation there became. the drawback became sluggish utility progression and that they have been VERY costly. Then alongside got here the IBM laptop that used an OS from a corporation reported as Microsoft. IBM threw open the hardware shape so as that companies would desire to construct interfaces yet they only geared up the full component instaed, computers grew to become extra value-effective, proprietary grew to become a grimy be conscious and all the companies died or have been given offered up via laptop manufacturers. Apple survived (only) via working in a area of interest marketplace for picture layout sort markets. What they specialized in became not the final hardware tech, yet integrated utility like the old days and super utility function yet they only only scraped via. Then got here the IPOD, they did not easily invent the MP3 participant, yet their one looked great appropriate and you may desire to get carry of song from their internet site and as nicely-known it had ingenious functionalty. The Ipod gave them funds to speculate in R&D and the biggest component approximately their products is they look stable and that they carry out their constrained function nicely. they are not easily that nicely geared up pondering the cost, yet they look magnificent, in an era whilst human beings do not purely desire a 'me too' laptop. It was that there have been very few viruses for Macs because of the fact the consumer base became so small yet they're being a becoming style of attacked via the criminal component as intense fee objectives, i.e. mac vendors are in many cases extra desirable off than laptop vendors. Mac's are stable yet not probable nicely actual worth the money for ordinary shoppers, whilst the Ipad got here out i presumed that'll in no way take off in spite of the undeniable fact that it did and that i now own one because of the fact as quickly as lower back i admire the function.

Mac has got super grahic capability. But you need to learn slightly extra to operate Mac if you are already a PC user. But my experiene is that you get very less viruses on Mac as compared to PC. But PC users say PC is easy to operate. But my experience is that in Mac you get less hang-ups and less viruses plus graphics are outclass. I have used both PC and Mac.

macs are more personal use oriented it seems and pcs are good for networking. its a whole different system though. i would suggest asking a friend that has a mac to use their compter and see if you like it better that your pc. i really want a mac, they are pretty lol. how highly technical.
