Why a mac is preferred over Windows PC?

Now that is a gem of a friend you’ve got! Cheers.

/sarcasm

What you said is quite true. But NOT ALL. What you are doing here is generalizing things. Some iDiot you saw installed Windows 7 doesn’t mean everyone does.

I agree with someone’s comment here about buying Apple for show off. I have seen this kinda of attitude in many people especially Indians. But NOT ALL ! There are true users who really do buy for its usage. My friend has iMac, MBA & iPhone. Most of his iDiot friends think he has bought all for show off & stuff. Thing is he works on Mac & makes awesome money with apps.

I have observed in people [only Indians] buying Mac to show off & hating it, thrashing it in every possible just they couldn’t afford it. IMHO.

Everyone in the Audio/Video industry uses a Mac. Heck I use one too. The truth is that I can’t live without FCP. Till recently Avid and Premiere were inferior editors. Although this isn’t as true today, I beleive the A/V world has gotten used to FCP, they will prefer it for the forseeable future. I’m guessing music composers fall in a similar category?

That said, I’ve also met several posers who buy a Macbook just because it looks cool. They use it for Facebook and iTunes.

Really? Some facts to go alongside or just a wild guess?

^Not sure. But Mac OS has never crashed in my hackintosh [& nor was Windows Vista/7] But atleast in security department Mac is weak.

Btw even guys at Google also use Mac : http://code.google.com/chrome/apps/

I have seen Mac being used by many developers. There is this forum software like IPB, its called Xenforo. Even developers of it also use Mac & post video tutorials made in Mac. I have seen Mac being used in other big shot companies too.

I am not saying Mac is great than windows & all, just want to point that even Mac also has little potential over UI & people don’t buy it install Windows.

Bro i knw the diff between Mac and iOS, just quoted an example of a guy who is paranoid about Apple product, and just bags them in order to showoff only , and you might know that mostly teens are known by the gadgets they own

I stopped buying mac, even kfc reduced their quantity. I eat only at subway now.

and your argument is invalid!

its not a fact, its a personal experience…i have used ios 3 and 4 on my ipod, my friend’s imac as well as android - 1.5,2.0,2.1 and 2.2 and i found that android on other hand is really buggy (till 2.2 confirmed,dont know further) as compared to ios which never hanged or created some issue and with windows- viruses, crashes,hangs…

What i wrote is my personal experience…

What a thread.

I was in HK last year and was looking for a laptop.

Given that i expected to use it 4-5 hrs a day, i needed something strong and sturdy, something that could handle abuse and did not heat up much

The options i had were , first thinkpad T400 , Dell Latitude etc mostly business line up ones

The biggest problem is most cheaper laptops have plastic type bodies whose hinges and all don’t last much in heavy usage. also heat up much more

I ended up buying a macbook pro as it was the cheapest option frankly for the build quality and all other things i was looking for.

Yes you read it right i can’t even count how many laptops i looked at , but those that i liked costed more than macbook .

How many chicken pieces now in the 8 piece bucket ?

Damn, Subway doesn’t have any stores near my place

Please refrain from using SMS slang.

well maybe quantity is not the correct word.. size is.. they have reduced the size of the pieces… ordered a zing kong box at inorbit vashi 3 weeks ago and was amazed to see the pieces there being half the previous size.

there was no chocolate included…so I asked about it..

The guy on counter tells his colleague..“chocolate maang raha hai!”

as if it was not supposed to be included..

FCK KFC

McD’s have reduced the size too.. morons.. we dont want different coloured interiors…

subways seems the only that is maintaining their quality and quantity.

You should have just cancelled the entire order and left. Sad that the service industry in India has quite a whole lot of jabroonis managing the counter.

can you post the pic of bucket, i am planning to go to nearest KFC (140km from my home )

Did u try the fiery grilled chicken.. Tasted yummy.. But certain items su as virgin mojito tasted yuck..

i think mod should rename the thread “Why Subway is preferred over KFC”

Omg..

Let me start by mentioning I own a Dell Inspiron running Win 7 and a desktop which runs Win 7 and Hackintoshed SL. So don’t really have a official Mac.

I do nothing on my laptop except for “managing” my photographs which are a lot due to my profession, downloading things and loads of surfing apart from other small things.

I have used iPhoto and have found virtually nothing as awesome as that as a windows counterpart. Sharing and Publishing photographs is not only easy but so much fun.

Coming to surfing though it’s virtually same on my desktop but when it comes to a MacBook then that multitouch touchpad with gestures makes so much difference. Have used one on a friends unibody and though being a much inferior machine it just feels so fun to surf. Also don’t get me started on the battery management. MacBooks have just got it right and that reminds me of the proprietary magnetic charging port. Just brilliant.

I don’t get time to use my Desktop. But when so ever I do I boot into the Mac OS partition and work on that. I really want to own a Pro or an Air but the price of the machines is something which makes me crib. Some of my reasons for preferring a Mac. Windows is great but sometimes it just feels very unpolished in front of a mac.
