“Are you a Mac or PC?” Are you a Mac or PC? That is the question. I’m a Mac, all the way! I will stick by my Mac till death do us part. Out of the thousands of laptops produced by today’s technology companies, I have yet to come across a laptop that even comes close to competing with the Mac book Pro that is generated by Apple. The speed and reliability of the Mac book is phenomenal, along with the thousands of application software programs that can be downloaded on this computer. Although there are many reasons the Mac book Pro is a one of a kind, award winning laptop; I love it simply for its performance and software. The Mac book Pro will give you more performance than you will know what to do with. If you are looking for a computer that is fast a lightening (literally), then there is no other option I have been having my laptop for about three years now, and it runs just like the first day I got it. Now that is amazing, thanks to Mac’s Intel Core i5 processor! Considering PC’s like to crash on you are run slower than your grandmother walks after the first year of ownership. Its extra long battery life of up to 7.5 hours is excellent, because wants the point of having a portable computer if you have to keep it plugged in all the time. It defeats the purpose and you might as well buy a desktop. The hardware on the Mac is built to last, and if you need a buddy you can rely on, I wouldn’t choose any other option, but this laptop. The Mac has an endless option of software applications that can be downloaded on to your computer and with 4 GB of memory feel free to download away! With the applications offered to you, you can personalize your computer to meet you every need, from photo editing apps, to music producing apps and my personal favorite the educational apps. There are millions of applications for everyone and your software can always be up to date to the latest and greatest that Apple comes

    Three different operating systems are Microsoft Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X. I would recommend Microsoft Windows because that’s the one I am most familiar with even though I hear a lot of good things about Mac OS X. It’s a very user friendly operating system. I am very experienced with Microsoft with having over 18 years of knowledge. They are constantly upgrading and making improvements each time they change the operating system. I also enjoy the…

    The PC OS is Microsoft windows which offers its users free updates and has a very highly talented team of Pros to keep them ahead of the game. One thing that some users don't like is that Windows OS is easy to crash unlike the Mac is protected with tight encryption that your basic user can’t get past, to make any changes to the main OS to change it. “Macs hardware is well built and appealing but is expensive.

    Based on the information listed above, the computer with the best value would odviously be the HP Pavilion Laptop. Not only does it perform better it has more memory and it Costs $200 less than the Apple MacBook Air. The MacBook beats the Pavilion on appearance in my opinion, but appearance doesn’t matter very much. The MacBook also weighs less, but would you really be willing to sacrifice more money for something a couple pounds lighter. The HP Pavilion may not be as attractive or sport the thinness of a MacBook Air, but the technological aspects are far greater and the cost is less. After all it’s what’s on the inside that counts.…

    Some devices are very expensive and are used for a variety of things from business, simple word processing or gaming. Some device users become strong proponents of one platform or another, for example those who prefer apple commuters will not use a PC and vice versa, citing ability to install viruses and availability of software as their reasons for choosing. I think it is mostly what you learn on that may determine which platform one chooses. All machines imply a savviness of the modern technical world. (Watson, 2012)…

    When I consider Laptop versus tablet, I think of what I will be using it for the most. When it comes to my laptop I use it for all of my school purposes. When it comes to my tablet, it is used for pretty much everything else. I actually have both, compliments of my awesome gift giving husband. The laptop was specifically purchased for me for school, while the iPad was more for personal use/pleasure. To be honest, I rely a lot on my husband to make these types of choices for me. When he first gave me the iPad for Christmas, it was nice but felt really unnatural when I used it. I was already used to my laptop that he got me for the previous Christmas.…
