You don't need to switch as often though with a proper Desktop PC, Laptops (Windows or Mac) usually live 2 or 3 years before requiring replacement but a Desktop PC can be upgraded to meet the standard for maybe 5 or 6 years unlike a Mac Desktop. And then when you do switch over to a new machine, you just plug your old HDD into your new machine and copy what ever you want/need. How can an Apple genius distinguish between rubbish and stuff you want? Just saying...

Under each and every one of these Mac vs PC ads there's an some sort of argument in the comments section. Beautiful.

damn i really enjoed reading all the comments from CasperCee. Thats a damn funny guy. Cant get enough of him. I wish there would me more people like him, so i could lough even more. Its funny how he always brings opinions instead of real facts.

@macchang1 I've owned Windows computers for roughly 11 years and haven't had one either, no lie. My sisters get them all the time but that's just because they go on dodgy websites. Not getting them is as easy as not being an idiot (for most people that's very easy). If you try hard enough there are plenty of viruses for a Mac.

@nimatoed my point was not that a laptop (Windows or Mac) can't survive more than 2-3 years, my point was that after 2-3 years the hardware is obsolete. I have 2 Dells from before 1999 that still run fine but I can't do more with them than what computer could do in 1999 because we demand more from a Computers hardware today. In conclusion yes a MacBook can last 5-6 years, but after 5-6 years any computer will feel slow and in need of replacement because everything else has moved on.

@ShasLaMontyr Because you tell them, they ask what you want to transfer, and the software organizes it to you. And I know you won't believe this(because it seems like you've never used a Mac) but Apple laptops survive far longer than 2-3 years. Usually around 5, I've seen more than a few last up to 10, and still run programs, and browse the internet very functionally.

And how does that work out with the millions of applications on PC that don't run on Mac? (I.e.) "Great - you copied my QuickBooks file across. Pity you couldn't copy the application as well or make it run if you did". Seriously misleading ad. And I say this typing on my Mac. Seriously.

@CasperCee and that my friends is why windows has 95% of the PC market because "they are a lame excuse for a computer and try to copy whatever the macs can do" LOL!!!

[dmanblackfire190]

@CasperCee yes... yes that is....

@CasperCee my pc boots in ten seconds... and only for 700 dollars hmmmm y is mac better again

@CasperCee

finally!!! an acutal measurment.... sweet, your mac boots up in 1/3 the time my 8 year old computer does.

all your other statments of quality and performance as back to more unsubstanciated claims. if you spend as much on a PC as you would on a mac your PC will smoke the mac. even if mac OS did not requre ANY processing (which is impossible) windows 7 operates on less than 2% of the computer mentioned above... which had 40% greater power than the equally priced mac.
