apple vs microsoft
August 7th, 2008 by adminIt’s safe to say that microsoft holds a big percentage of the personal computer market share. Servers are now using linux and the hipsters are starting to use macs, but microsft windows is still king. I have and use all three operating systems. I use linux for my servers and both mac and windows PCs. I have to say that i love windows. Sure they aren’t perfect and the software is overpriced, but so is apple’s. Also, i find that windows is easier to use. I guess it’s because i’ve been using windows since high school. If i started off with macs, maybe i would feel more comfortable on my macs. The only problem with macs is that they are way too expensive. I like to upgrade my computer every year. I can’t afford to do that win macs. With windows pcs, i could easier make the upgrades. I can upgrade to a new computer on the cheap. Can’t do that with the expensive macs.
For me, it’s not about user interface or the cool factor. It’s about the price. Let’s face it, we don’t do complex things on our computers. We use it to surf the web and maybe a few of us have our own websites. I use basic photo image software and word processing software. Other then that, there isn’t much i do on my computer besides playing games. So, all i want is a fast computer to let me do this at an affordable price. Linus is still a bit too complex for me so i’ll stick to windows. Macs don’t have enough games and it’s way too expensive. In my book, microsoft wins.
