Entry #5: Are You a Right Clicka or an iBook Flippa?

So, as you probably (and most likely) already know, there has been an on-going battle between the Mac and PC. The makers of the Mac have made several commercials that show why the Mac is better than the PC. Personally, I prefer the PC, but maybe it’s because I’ve never used a Mac before. This is probably why I think that getting a PC would be a better deal than getting a Mac.
The Mac is specifically designed to be used as a media tool, to work on creative things such as Photoshop and Illustrator. Whereas the PC is compatible with all programs except for the ones that are made only for Macs. Maybe it’s not as professional, but it certainly does the job.
Macs are glossy and can be either black or white in colour. I don’t think this is a very good thing to have because it will get dirty very easily. No matter how well you take care of your laptop, it will eventually get dirty. The grease from your fingers will make the cover very uncomfortable to touch, and will not be easy to clean.
The Macbook Air is so thin that it doesn’t even have a CD drive. This means that you have to purchase it separately. The Macbook is already so expensive, and so I think its safe to say that the CD drive will be at least a third of the price of the actual laptop. All these costs will eventually add up, and then you'll realize that instead of buying one Macbook Air, you could’ve gotten two PC’s. I think the Macbook is a waste of money just because you have to buy all the peripherals separately.
I believe that the PC is so much better than the Mac mostly because it’s so easy to use, and it’s affordable. These days, all peripherals come standard in PC’s and the ones that don’t are still very affordable. Most software programs are made for PC’s whereas there aren’t many for Macs. This means that people with Macs cannot do a lot of things that PC’s can, and so it isn’t very sensible to get a Mac. Also, because PC's are more widely used, if you have a problem with yours, it's easier to find help. The Mac users will just be left behind in the dust. The PC is very easy to use, and you can do all the things you need to do very quickly because it is very user-friendly.
