I'm really not a fun for Mac stuff. It's just a fashion thing, not for work.
For the money you spent on Mac, you can definitely buy a cheap powerful machine with free reliable Linux system.
No matter to say its monopoly of market, even an adapter to projector need its own. I have seen so many times someone using a Mac but forgot bringing that stupid adapter for projector, she/he had to change to PC to do the presentation.
Still don't understand why people like such pricey not comparably useful machine.
- laut 15y agoMacs "just work" for things where Linux doesn't. Photoshop doesn't run natively on Linux, that's alone is enough for many to choose OS X over Linux. For many people the price difference (if it's there) doesn't matter.
- lightoverhead 15y agothat's the software not the machine. Can pc run photoshop?
- laut 15y agoMac OS X is the only unix based OS that runs Photoshop natively. Macs are the only way to run Mac OS X except if you make a "hackintosh". Linux is not as user friendly and integrated with the hardware as Macs. There are certain apps that are only available for Mac. Those are some of the reasons.
- starpilot 15y agoIn this case, the Mac might actually be the better buy if you're just talking hardware. From one review of the most comparable PC, the Samsung Series 9: "The 13-inch MacBook Air delivers longer battery life, better graphics, and a higher-res display for $350 less, and you can get a 256GB SSD inside for $50 less than the Series 9." http://www.laptopmag.com/review/laptops/samsung-series-9.aspx?page=all http://www.laptopmag.com/review/laptops/samsung-series-9.asp...
