Apples verses oranges. Whoops! I mean Apple desktop and notebook computers verses IBM Compatible desktop and notebook computers. Well, that would have made an awfully long title.
Apple and Microsoft have their little spat going about which type of computer and OS are best. We know it costs more for an Apple system. We know Apple is generally more reliable. Worth the extra cost? That, I suppose, would be an individual choice. If money is no object, it would seem the Apple would be the natural choice. If the budget is tight (and one has the patience of Job) the Microsoft based system would seem to be the choice.
Never have I owned an Apple (computer, that is, I eat Gala, Fuji, and Jonathan Apples all the time [organic, please.]) I have certainly had my share of troubles with the MS based machines. Still, I’ve been reluctant to switch. Money is one reason. Another is uncertainty of what Apple may not do or run, etc. So I am looking for some help, folks. This is your chance to tell me where to go (I know some of you want to do that) – to the Apple counter or the Other counter.
Can you help?
Don’t those of you who lack experience with both systems feel left out. You can leave a reply with what you know about either (or both) system(s). Why did you choose what you chose and/or why do you wish you had made a different decision.
