Default Why PC vs. Mac debates shouldn't exist

All things have differences. People prefer some over others. This has always been true for PC and Mac users, so of course, there has always been debating over which is best overall.

Ladies and gentlemen, I have the answer.

Debating about whether or not one is better than the other is like two women debating over their personal brand of dildo. Both can get the job done in their own way, but people still have their own preferences. One might like the features that it comes with, might have heard some really good things about it, or just plain use it out of tradition and never becoming accustomed to a different brand.

Some say that theirs is sleeker, more user-friendly, or very customizable. Other will criticize them for being unable to do this or that, not good for this type of execution, or even shuts down a lot when apparently nothing wrong happened.

Some people are big on features, like what it has built in vs. what you have to add onto it yourself. Size and convenience are also large factors of people's decisions of which to buy. Nobody wants to hassle to get their work done, but some people prefer their own way over someone else's idea.

What it all comes down to is that eventually the women stop their bickerring about their dildo and just accept that there may be something else out there that they haven't experienced, while they still retain their loyalty to their original investment. Then they can openly look for something different and new, something exciting and out of the ordinary. If they don't like what they find, then they can go back to their life as it was. But if they find something they like, perhaps they can mix up what they use, how they use it, and what they use it for.

In conclusion, whenever you feel a PC vs. Mac debate coming on, just imagine two women fighting over whose dildo is better and everyone'll be a lot happier.

Hahaha.

For myself, Mac's don't have as large gaming support as windows currently does. If it was an even draw, then I wouldn't care either way.

Macs vs. PC is like dildo vs. dildo w/ a vibrator installed.

Windows wins.

I have a Mac, a PC, and a machine running Linux. It's like having three dildos, all with different advantages, that I can use whenever I want. Or, if I'm feeling adventerous, I can use two at the same time.

Is that advert trying to say that Microsoft is behind propaganda that makes everyone else believe that Mac has faults? It should be obvious to anyone with a brain that the fault's pointed out by Windows users are mostly legitimate. The mac system is by no means perfect and furthermore it is not Microsoft themselves behind it; it's the average person who looks at a mac system and says "I don't like that, because..."

And I know that might have come across as a bit anti-mac, but that's because I do prefer Windows to mac. However, also be aware that I do feel that Macs are alright and I can see why others would prefer it, even if I do not. Macs are easier to work with (mostly for people who aren't already heavily used to Windows), Windows are just more customizeable (I'm talking hardware upgrades as well as software availability). And with bootcamp, macs are given the very same software library that Windows has. So basically it comes down to this: Macs are ready more easily while Windows allow you to add whatever additional hardware you want.

Default Re: Why PC vs. Mac debates shouldn't exist

The dildo example was priceless lol. As afro said, I prefer windows, but I can also see why people would like mac. I really don't care either way, and I do hate when people are always all "OMFG THIS IS BETTER THAN THIS DOUBLE YOO TEE EF!1!!11!!1!shift+1!", but there's different OSs that are right for different people. Windows = More for people who are a bit more computer advanced, want to update things, change out parts, stuff like that. Mac = more for people who just want to turn their computer on and run some basic programs without wanting to know really what they're doing.

I must say though that I do have very low respect for mac, mainly because of how they reacted to the Church of Satan putting a sign on their website that said "This website was created using Mac".

Default Re: Why PC vs. Mac debates shouldn't exist

Having a laptop with both Windows and Mac on it and a desktop with Windows and Linux on it I have found that I prefer the Mac. It makes things like Video Chatting, IMing, checking email, and other things, easier and faster because it's all right there. Maybe I'm just used to it because I've been a Mac user for years beacause its what we used in my film class for forever.

I would say they are even- Mac has the music and "Life" features and Windows has the awesome internet and gaming support, as mentioned earlier.

So in other words, you're saying that Macs make things easier for simpletons? (Not that you're one, just going by the things you listed.)

Well if that were the case, a lot more people would have Macs, as 90% of the computer using world are idiots.

This is mostly true. Someone who is 100% unfamiliar with computers will probably have an easier time getting a mac to do what they wants.

Firefox would be better for computer illiterate people too. Do you see them using it? Hell no. To be blunt, they know so little about computers that they don't know they'd be better off with something else... Windows is what most people use and it's cheaper to use. No surprise in my mind that computer newbs would choose Windows over Mac most of the time, even though a lot of them would be better off with Mac.

I use both a mac and a windows machine and while I prefer my mac, I still find having a PC useful for certain things. My next computer will probably be a PC.

It's to the point where it doesn't matter what argument one makes, I am satisfied with the job my mac has done and I haven't had any troubles with it.

I've had pleanty of time to use both a Mac and a Windows computer.. I like how the Mac looks externaly but don't prefer the way it runs.. But with Windows (Since I've been using it since I was 6) I prefer just out ot habbit. Mice waise I don't prefer the single button.. Cuz I like my 2 + click wheel mouse. All in all my dream computer would be half way between the 2. (Maybe a great Windows computer sans problems + mac keyboard.)
