SincerelyJackie asked us: "I know the basic differences between Microsoft Windows and Macs. But I was wondering if you could do a show on which differences actually matter when figuring out which one to get."

Seriously you people use tech support? I mean I usually know what the problem is but even if I don't I waste 5 minutes in Google.

Photoshop on Mac. It runs just as well on PC you know.

I spent $1600 on a laptop four years ago and it's still on par with today's Macbook Pro at the same price range. It also came with a full service warranty.

You're paying for the brand, not for the computer, when you buy a Mac. You can easily find the same quality and performance elsewhere for less.

@TheBestofChawchi They are shit, any economist would tell you their product is identical to a pc, except for the fact its been advertised as a "glamour" product and that Apple can charge anything because the consumer (you) are stupid enough to pay big money when you can pay equivalent and get a super PC, because the Mac is "sexy" i must buy it, dumbass, because you BELIEVE its a superior product when it isnt. An i5 2.4 ghz is more expensive than a PC i7, stop throwing your money away.

If macs were shit, they would not be the biggest company in the world. And the one that grosses more than anyone else in their sector. So to all of you haters, take your tails stuck it between your legs and run along.

All Apple products high end? meh.. debatable

@DaBurntToaster if you poor, dont even go to apple's web site, it will never be worth the money, if you have the money and you like macs more, have at it

[DaBurntToaster]

sure theres less shit to deal with on a mac, but you pay a LOT more for a mac than a pc + av software (which you can get for free) + maintenance software (again can be free) and tech support (AGAIN... it is occasionally free), but even if you pay for all the extra fix it up stuff for your windows pc, that doesnt add up to the amount of extra money you'd spend on a mac,

MAC IS SHIT.

[Seuvyx]

Windows might need more attention (referring to the cost of ownership part) but what wasnt mentioned was the actual cost of the machines. Buying an apple is alot like paying more for something just because of a brand, on a sheer power to cost ratio, Macs are considerably more expensive than other PCs, but without much more (technologically wise) to show for it

[JoshBlasy]

Macs are simple. which is why simple people use them.

They aren't virus-proof, Nobody just gives a shit about them, so they don't target them.
