MAC vs. PC which is better?!







I know many bloggers, buisness men and computer
lovers alike have constantly debated the age old question we have all heard im sure, "MAC vs. PC." So which one is better? Myself being an Apple fan, I hopefully can honestly write this article un-biasly. Though I do favor Macintosh computers (I have a MacBook Pro), I think I have the answer the question millions of people are racking ther brain to find. I look at both brands of computers at having specific purposes in the world as they have evolved over the years. The first "PC" computer was released in 1978; same year as the first Macintosh, so both computers were released close to the same time. However, many people try to favor one computer over the other, and my opinion is I think no computer will ever be superior to the other. There will become a point where Mac's will control 50% of the computer market, and PC's 50% as well. *We could se this statistic with a couple years. *I believe this because; One, PC's are more popular. They are the more known computer in the business world because of there incredible software that enables businesses to run smoothly and efficiently. This I think is the reason PC's are so popular is the business software people in business cubicles use to sort paperwork and creates many important documents best suits the business standards. Businesses will always be around and this is the only software able to keep these companies running, so this is a major reason PC's control most of the computer market. In addition, the use of "Microsoft Office" is loved by teachers from around the world making it a school standards to a certain extent. Any school work teachers at my schools have made use do is through Microsoft Office. All the business aspect put aside PC's software goes downhill from there. There creative software; video editing, picture editing, and all other creative software is very primitive compared to Apple. Apple offers a different perspective on the computer industry. They are all about user experience, satisfaction, and ease
of use. They provide the best software for professional photographers, musicians, and filmmakers and have the best software to put in a consumer notebook. They strive for simplicity and put a sort of "face" to their computers. They want a computer to be personal to someone, as well as offering powerful applications, and adding just plain "fun" to the whole computer experience. While on the other hand, Microsoft is all about getting tasks done and thats about it. Besides the price of the computers, that is the main focus of the 2 types of computer. This brings me to a point where the user can make a choice, what it boils down to is a matter of preference. If your the type of person who likes to use a computer for getting jobs done, and getting something at a cheap price that's one side of the spectrum. Other the other side, you can enjoy the entire computer experience with a Macintosh. Though it costs a little bit more money, (I myself saved for about year). I enjoy the experience of using it, its fun, the software is easier to use, and I love using my computer as a companion to my everyday life. I don't believe in the end there will be a so called "winner" just the 2 brands of computers cover both sides of the spectrum, so if you came here for an answer on which computer all I can offer is advice. I say just do your research and see what each brand of computers offers. See if it fits what your looking for, and what you need in a computer. Both companies are great, and have been creating computers and software for about 30 years so they know what there doing. I am being very general, and not nit-picking the fine details, so feel free to comment on any key points I missed or you want me to add tot his article.

Below is a video of the Microsoft CEO "Steve Ballmer" at MIX 2008'. The reason I like this video so much is because he talks about key points in the "MAC vs PC" debate and highlights both of the companies (Apple & Microsoft) great features, and greatly describes each companies advantages and disadvantages.
