Why are Macs "so great"?
I currently use a PC with Windows 7 for my art and design work. Love it and know it inside out. If I knew Macs inside out, I'd probably prefer them, but I don't.
What I'd like to know is; what specifically can a mac do that a PC can't? So far the list seems to be: * Better re-sell value * Less chance of getting a virus, but then I am too savvy to get one my PC so this is irrelevant (note to hackers- please don't try to prove me wrong here!) * Easy for novice computer users to use. This is irrelevant as I already know how to use a PC properly. * OSX is apparently more stable? If so, that is good! Is that it? If I wanted to list reasons why PCs are better I know I could create a far superior list
The only reason I would want a Mac is because knowing how it works is often a requirement if you want employment within the graphic design industry. I have nothing against Apple at all, but it makes me angry when I'm forced into using a product like a Mac for the sole reason of 'because it's tradition' or 'because everyone else uses it' rather than using a product because it works well!
