MAC?

Category: How Rude | 5 Comments

Just saw the new TV commercials of MAC.  According to the commercials, MAC is better because there are thousands and thousands viruses out there targeting on PCs, but MAC has no such problem.  So it’s time for us PC users to switch to MAC.  I always trust TV commercials because they always tell the truth and they are NEVER WRONG.

I immediately turned to Google, which is never wrong too, to find my next best MAC.  Luckily, only having to turn to search results page 35, I found THE ONE.

But then I couldn’t decide.  Even Snow White on the cover couldn’t decide.  Is this a good APPLE?  Or a bad APPLE?

MAC?  Is this good APPLE?  Or bad APPLE?

    I love this mac! What a clever idea.

    I’m a Mac user and I must say I would never switch back to PCs. If you enjoy creative pursuits the Mac is the way to go, in my humble opinion! Good luck!

    Apple with a Unix based OS don’t have anywhere near the virus or malware concerns of a Windows PC, however neither does Linux for that matter.

    Apple does have a few vulnerabilities, but keeping the computer up to date with all releases of patches for the relevant platform resolves these issues regardless of the operating system.

    Would I run an Apple or Linux computer on the Internet without an anti-virus program? Yes, I would – but warily.

    Would I do the same with a Windows PC? Not a chance; and that’s coming for someone with 10+ years of experience with IT Support and network administration.

    Evening Staciesmadness,

    I think that you will not regret spending the extra $$ with the Mac; I was once the same as you and had major reservations with paying the extra $$ for an Apple.

    It’s been quite a few months now since I bought mine; mainly due to the fact that I didn’t have an Apple at work to use for troubleshooting support issues.

    Bottom line is that I haven’t missed my PC since; using iMovie and iPhoto is a joy and in all honesty, the Mac hasn’t missed a beat.

    FireFox has some issues but I think that the issue is more with the program than the platform as no other software has had the same issue.

    Yes, there are differences and a slight learning curve, but I wouldn’t go back to a PC if I had my choice.

    Welcome to the ‘Dark side’ :-)

    Regards,

    Andrew.
