So which is better? The Mac or the PC? For a person who prefers to be on the neutral side it is very difficult to tell which one has the better qualities. When me and the wife bought the iMac 27″ we initially thought that we wouldn’t be able to tank this computer. We started throwing 25 megabyte RAW images at it by the thousands and it started to slow down gradually. Then whenever we would press the mouse button to initiate a function we would have to wait almost 30 seconds for it make it work.
Yeah the iMac’s do slow down sometimes. What we did in order to resolve this issue was to upgrade its memory from 4gb up to 16gb. Then the unit started working like a charm again.
My wife would normally joke around saying that no computer unit can survive the hands of my husband. I’d just ask too much of it, get fed up then buy a new one.
The PC is no exception. When you just want it to work you are going to have to plan what kind of unit you want. Basically it boils down to the hardware side of things.
Viruses? The Macs brag about their no virus units simply because it is harder to program on a Mac. You really need to know your stuff if you intend to be destructive with the Macs. With that said Macs do get Viruses but not a whole lot. When they do get one they normally instruct their customer care.centre to deny it and asked that they wait for an update to show up which these guys react fast to.
PC’s? Come on who doesn’t love the PC? we all grew up with. Well they are still around right? The Pcs are still very good but nowadays for what you want it to do you need to be able to afford some muscle in the purchase. Nowadays a lot of these companies are going cheaper and cheaper. Only because they are interested in your dollars. Is the computer any good? Well where they sacrifice in price, they sacrifice in performance.
Even though a lot of these cheap computer units are available. They do have some great uses. Hmm lets talk about a few of them.
1) Great storage units when you are out taking photos and you need a place to transfer them to.
2) Great for Facebook and other Social Media websites.
3) Email
4) Watching Videos. But when you are mobile make sure battery or at least the charger. Most of these netbooks or notebooks will only last 3 hours at most regardless of it’s advertised price.
5) Great for torrent downloading as you can just set the aside and get it do its download while you work on your main computer with something else.
6) Great Media Center for your Flat Screen TV. All you have to do is buy a cable so that you connect your computer to your TV.
It is great to do one thing. Just don’t ask it to do more.
So what will it be? The Mac or the PC?
