Mac vs PC
Saw a Mac commercial on TV yesterday. It kind of reminded me of the first time I saw a Mac ad few years ago. The ads still tried to make fun of PC (Windows). What is shocking to me is that I’ve totally changed my view about Mac since the first ads.
They Are Both Good
Right now I have 3 computers to myself. A desktop and 2 notebooks. The desktop and the larger Asus A8 notebook are running XP and the last one is my Asus Eee PC which is running Linux. I am quite happy with XP right now but my desktop is getting ready to retire. A replacement for my desktop will certainly be a Mac. Also I’ve plans to get a Macbook Pro.
Vista Is The Killer Of PC
The reason behind my switch to Mac is mainly because of Vista. It is the worst system I’ve seen since Windows ME. Microsoft will end support for XP and force everyone to move to Vista in the near future. I just can’t see myself running Vista for one day. Also, I want a system that can fulfill my photo and graphics editing needs. Mac is the best choice.
PC Not That Bad
After my switch, I will still keep my Asus notebook running XP because XP still has its use. There are certainly things that you can do on a PC that a Mac can’t, so if you decide to switch too, make sure you keep a computer running XP too. Things like bittorrent and video conversion are still better of using Windows.
Conclusion
Mac extremists may say Macs are better than PC in any way. I don’t think it’s true because they both are useful, they are just better than each other in different ways. The best workstation is a combination of Mac and PC.
