Windows or Apple Mac? |
I am currently at University looking to invest in a new notebook. I mainly use my laptop for: Writing essays in word, Internet, Occasional PowerPoint Presentation, Uploading Photos/Videos, Web chat / Instant Mesaging. I have been looking at both windows based machines and the macbook but am still unsure which to choose. + what is Macs compatability like, if i'm looking to print documents off which i have done in word on a mac, will i be able to do this at university which uses windows machines? Are most programs which you can buy compatable with a mac? As you can probably tell i'm angling toward the mac, but i just don't have enough experience to make the decision. (拢900 is ALOT of money to a student!!!) MS Office on a Mac is the same as on a PC when it comes to what you can do and the file formats. Hence there is nothing really different there. Connecting to a printer seems easier on a Mac so that might be a none event. Check out the link below for what Apple says to people traveling from a PC to a Mac. The following should be the item that convinces you. If you buy a Mac and then later buy MS Windows from Microsoft you can run your Apple hardware as if it was a traditional PC. Hence you can hedge your bets and still have a Mac. You can not do the reverse if you buy a PC. Source(s): http://www.apple.com/getamac/ Windows. Apple Mac are terrorists. good info here scroll down http://www.apple.com/getamac/ Most uni's run Windows applications so I would go for a Windows machine Apple macs are good for design and CAD applications I would go for a reasonable priced Windows notebook (around 拢300 - 拢2000) from Currys Here is my theory on Windows vs. Mac. I'll list the advantages of each. Windows: Gaming, if you are going to network with another windows, you're going to want windows, and price. Mac: easy to use, very good for media (pictures, video, music), comes with iLife I would get a Mac if I were you. Im on my fourth mac notebook i love them:) |
