Mac vs. PC

Lets just say that i am VERY excited about finally getting my Mac. After saving up for 8 months i was finally able to buy a 15" MacBook Pro. I am so blessed to have this as my very first computer.

Here are a few of the differences that it has from a PC:

1. Extremely fast processor. It takes me litterally 30 seconds to copy a song onto my Mac and about 5 to copy a whole CD. With our house PC it took about an hour or more to copy a whole CD. This computer is fast and furious! It also takes no time at all to move from web-page to web-page. Our old PC would frequently freeze between pages and need a complete reboot.

2. The Mac is VERY user friendly! You can take it right out of the box and start using it with little to no help figuring it out. I'm still having a little bit of trouble figuring out Garage Band though. That's understandable. And if you ever do need help there is always a Help button on the top bar that helps with anything.

3. HD screens are way better than regular PC screens. The picture is so colorful and sharp. It is PERFECT for watching movies on.

4. EVERYTHING is lit up on the Mac. I especially love how the keys are lit up. No more having to type in the dark, thus eliminating typo's.

5. The sound quality on my Mac is outstanding for it having built in speakers. Most PC speakers can sound muffly when cranking music out of them. These speakers sound crystal clear.

These are some of the differences that i have noticed SO FAR. I have had it less then 24 hours so far. There will be more to come after i start getting more used to it.

  1. Not to be a downer but not all PC's suck! Sure there are a lot of bad ones out there, but they have many new models. That's one thing I like a lot about PC, they are always upgrading and changing things for the better. Having a PC or a MAC really only depends on the user and what they would use a computer for most. I LOVE my PC. It is very, very fast and I can run games at high settings and listen to music and surf the web all at the same time, everything running very smoothly and loading very, very quickly. It all depends on what you have inside it! So don't hate PC!! Just dislike older models! =)
    Still, I'm happy you like your Mac. They are nice but Mac's aren't for me. I don't dislike them though, a PC is just more beneficial for my uses.
