Microsoft or Apple?
 
Which do use or prefer?

Nicky. 29-12-2008 10:35 AM

I've never used an apple one, so I voted Microsoft :3

Tom 29-12-2008 10:35 AM

Windows, its easier to use and I don't care about anything as long as I can go on the internet

Apple..... we have 3 in the house :laugh:

Apple OSX or Linux..... either are far better than anything Microsoft are producing at the moment.

Vista just sucks it is so slow even on a fast computer.

Vista is great on mine Red because I have the fastest laptop that they make, when it was first launched in 2007 it was rubbish but now it is as good as Apple.

I have to say that Apple looks wayyy better and I like them for show but Windows is alot more practical.
Microsoft.

My HP laptop isn't slow in theory and it cost more than my macbook.

It only has a slightly slower processor (2.2 GHz Core 2 Duo compared with the macbooks 2.4 GHz Core 2 Duo), the same amount of RAM and a better graphics card, but still it sucks running Vista.

I would say my netbook with it's 1.6 GHz single core Atom processor is only slightly slower on most tasks than the HP. It is running a full version of Linux with a quarter of the Ram of the HP.

I just think Apple is too expensive for not much better than Microsoft. Dell is the best type of PC!:thumbs2:

Fom 29-12-2008 11:39 AM

Apple! I swear I thought the same as everyone else with all the microsoft hype, but seriously once you go mac you never go back. It's the best thing I have done.

Its easier to do stuff on, faster and just all over sexier :)

Callum 29-12-2008 11:47 AM

Microsoft.

Oh, but it is better than Microsoft. :bigsmile:

And, whilst the Apple computers may be a tad more expensive, you can save money in other areas. For instance, when they release their new operating system, you can buy it with all features for around £70, whereas the version of Vista with all the features (Ultimate) costs £200 and above!

They are expensive now that the new range of aluminum macbooks have come onto the market. Although Apple would say you get a lovely case and a much better graphics card and DDR3 memory running at 1066 MHz, they have increased the price by around £250.

Before Apple did that if you looked at the specs of the macbooks and hghend laptop pc's costing about the same the only difference was that you get a better graphics cards with the pc's other than that there was much to choose between the two systems.

Of course you could always run OS.X on your windows machine, to get round the hardware cost issues.
