PC - MAC or PC - View Post

Well, back on topic, I think when you buy a Mac, you pay for the brand name. You pay a lot. You get basically nothing. For every small insignificant advantage of the "user friendly" Mac software, you give yourself huge disadvantages. For instance, the inability to play games. Build quality is a myth. Acer or Apple, you still get a warranty with your product. As far as build quality, however, the cheaper PC brands still tend to have excellent build quality, and a GREAT indication of that is user reviews.

See, in the modern world, you should never choose your items by their brand name. You should pick them with user reviews and research of individual models. This is called research. There is no broad simple explanation. When researching quality vs price, I suggest you look at a few macs, just so you know exactly what the everyone has to offer for the price.

So here it is, if you don't have a vague understanding of how a computer works, or what software is, then Mac still isn't worth the extra price you pay for nothing but prestige and brand name. Every nitpick you have about PC is countered by real disadvantages of Mac. It's a user-friendly OS that costs out the ass. It's for casual users.



I don't need your console war.
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.
I don't need your console war.

NO NO, NO NO NO.
