Apple OS vs Windows 7
Hi Ppl
I have been asked by a friend as he is retiring what is the benefits or Apple PC over a Windows computer. I personally wouldn't touch an Apple because Windows 7 is great anyhow I want non-bias view. Feel free to correct me if I any information I put down in completely wrong.
My limited (if any) understanding of Apple Macinitosh are
Pro's
I am told they are based on Unix more stable secure?
They have no viruses possibly reduced malware too?
4th Largest computer manufacturer 7% of computer market.
Great with iPhone
Negatives
There are more expensive to purchase and maintain over Windows based PC's,
They have superior graphics processing or viewing (I don't know what I mean there lol)
No support for flash all these rudetube (sorry youtube) pages etc won't work with a mac unless you use a emulator (what though)
Windows
Pro's
Really easy to use anyone can fix them even me sometimes lol
More product compatibility probably 90% software is Windozes only.
I would imagine most companies provide software solutions including online support Windows.
Easily connect to other hardware devices such as xboxs, storage devices.
Negatives
Most machines get infected easily.. Lots of security wholes which require constant updates.
The operating system is very heavy lots of resouces disk space, ram etc to run
Cheers
ZL
