Study finds Macs are superior to PCs.

- 1. Reliable sleep mode - 2. Extremely fast boot times - 3. Apple uses good quality parts. - 4. Less blinking lights. - 5. OS X + Windows is better than just Windows - 6. Easier to troubleshoot Macs. - 7. A culture of good quality community software - 8. More useful apps out of the box - 9. Neat and contained system settings. - 10. Tonnes of small reasons make Mac OS X better. What do you think? Do you agree with this article's fact that Macs are better than PCs?

  • really lame... if you buy computer parts and make your own (cant do this with macs) then you can buy high quality parts cheaper and have 10x the computer power FACT... got to say though windows 8 is shite and macs are more idiot proof !

      • I just use both. My PC has a GTX 550ti, but I mainly use my Macbook Pro.

        I use both macs and PC's daily and here is my opinion. It all depends on your preference! Macs have a well organized system. The consistency of the file/edit/settings/etc are and will always be in the same place is very nice. Also, in my experience, I see less crashes on macs then on a pc. Windows also has a very good system. The ease of moving your programs around your desktop and how they click into place, how the system is more manageable, and more programs coming out on Windows first is really helpful. Also, with PC's, it is much easier to open them up and swap out parts. I lean a little more towards PC probably because I grew up using them and I am used to using one more. Most poeple who think one blows the other away has never used the other on a regular basis.

      • 1.I see no difference of a Mac's sleep mode and PC's newly released computers. 2.Disagree.For newer released laptops can boot up almost just as fast as a Mac. 3.Apple doesn't use good quality parts.Apple charges way too much for upgrades and outdated computer parts (As in speaking of the price) 4.PFFTTTTTTT 5.Create a Hackintosh or better yet,triple boot Mac,Windows, and Linux on a pc. 6.It isn't easy to troubleshoot Mac's as in hardware wise.Considering the Mac's are a pain to open and tamper with. 7.There's upon thousands of freeware for both Windows and Linux.That are more superior than Mac software. 8.Yeah,charging you an additional cost for apps that function similar to freeware. 9.The lack of a start menu is ridiculous.The launch menu is trash. 10.No. I only favor Apple for their sleek designs.That's it.

            They're not bad computers, they're just too expensive. The pros you particularly listed, however, are things I don't give a crap about and wouldn't pay extra for.

              • Isn't this common knowledge? Only reason why most people get a PC is because its cheaper.

                      • Extremely fast boot times? OK. I mean, my SSD is so super slow it's unbearable. And the PC argument? Hell naw. I have a custom PC and it is better in every way than any Mac on the market, for a fraction of the price.

                        • That's not a study. I do agree with some of the points raised in the article though. There was a real study done a few years ago that found companies that run their business on Macs did the same work in less time.

                              1. is an opinion 2. Bullshit, mt labtop has 25 second boot times too 3. proven wrong, all parts are made by the same sweatshop in china, apple's are just shinier 4. Really? blinking lights? now you're just grasping at straws 5. the reason Windows can't run mac is because Mac has to be a bunch of douchenozzles and not let anyone else use their OS, windows is used by all computer manufacturers 6. yes, because if it's messed up in any way you can't fix it yourself and have to buy a brand new computer if the warranty expires, where if you use a Windows PC you can just replace the part. 7. Opinion based 8. all depends on what you want out of the box, you can just add it into the files for windows immideately after 9. It's the same with windows, just a few more screens to go through 10. Only an idiot would load up the system with crap, it's your own damned fault if your PC is loaded with crap 11. - you can do the same with PC - again, same on PC - Windows 8 has this now, completely useless feature though - Rocket dock, or Nexus - so screen sharing? it's the same as using an external hard drive - Good point 12. Avast+MWB is free and Macs are locked up to hell and the Virus makers see no point in developing for mac because of the small but loud fanbase 13. Opinion, again 14. Off topic, and Gimp is indeed good 15. you can do the same on PC Cay my friend, you have picked an extremely bad article to help your case, and it's 4 years old too, try harder next time and don't just type "Why R macs bettur then windows" in google and pick the first article you see. Copypasted from a Mac vs. PC thread on another forum where this exact article was posted.
