Macs are all-around better than Windows computers.

"Here is a quote where my opponent clearly references start up time in different OS: 'I know someone who owns a Windows computer that runs Windows XP. It takes around five to seven minutes to restart, whereas with my Mac, it only takes around thirty seconds'" I wasn't saying that start up time had anything to do with OS, I was merely stating the operating system my friend was using. Thus the argument is invalid, and can be discarded from the debate. "Iolo Technlogies, which sells PC tune-up software, said its lab unit found that a brand-new machine running Windows 7 takes a minute and 34 seconds to become usable" says CNET. com. Watch this video to see how a Mac compares to a PC in start up and boot down time: . http://www.youtube.com.... I CAN prove that Macs are faster when they restart and boot down quicker, and even boot up faster. Although the video showed that the PC booted up 1/2 a second faster, the PC had a better processer. If they both had equal processers it would only make sense for the Mac to start up faster. "Evidence: www. apple. com. Plus, I said that Macs use parts that were "meant for eachother" which is true, since, like I said, Apple makes both the operating system AND the actual parts. With a Windows computer, you are getting two things from two completely different companies that aren't as reliable as having the same companies making your computer. "Apple. com is not a reliable source to use when judging the quality of an Apple product. The site is clearly biased in favor of themselves. " I only used Apple. com to get the knowledge that Apple DOES make both the actual parts and the OS. I used my common sense to figure out that it's better to have both made by the same company. Think about it: You have the choice of a hamburger where the lettuce and tomatoes were grown in your backyard, the cheese was made by you, the meat was made from one of YOUR cows, and you baked the bread from your own oven, using all natural ingredients, or you could have the lettuce imported from Uruguay, the buns from Japan, and and the meat from Mongolia. Which sounds better? The homegrown one. You want to know why? Because it's all from the same place. "My opponent clearly misunderstood the analogy. The elements of said analogy do not represent anything other than one thing of poor quality that is convenient and a different thing of good quality that is not. It illustrated that convenience does not equate quality. " I still don't understand what my opponent is trying to say. Convenience DOESN'T equate quality, which is totally true. Therefore, the Windows being the more convenient with a cheaper price doesn't make it quality, which it isn't. So thus I can logically conclude that this is a recession made by my opponent or a miswritten analogy of Windows to Macs. "I won;t deny that Keynote is a useful program, but it also requires more knowhow to use effectively. PowerPoint is much better from a utilitarian point of view. There is much more in this program that requires more than your basic knowledge of the software. PowerPoint is quite easy to use, all you really do is put information and pictures on slides and hit F5 for a full-screen presentation, simple. " says my opponent. But he backs up his obvious opinion, being the contender to Macs being all-around better than Windows, with absolutely no sources or proof. Here's my proof that keynote is easier to use than PowerPoint: My friend's daughter (8) sat down at my Macintosh laptop and started messing around with Keynote. She had absolutely no problem knowing what the things meant. She said that it was "way easier to use than my daddy's computer". Here's some more proof: "Keynote has hit the ground running pretty well. You can import PowerPoint presentations, and you can export your presentations into PPT files, PDF, or QuickTime for distribution. A MacBook or MacBook Pro with Keynote makes an excellent 'road warrior' platform for presenting your ideas effectively and with style. As mentioned, I've removed PowerPoint from my Mac notebook; Keynote does it all. Watch for more and more people using Keynote. " says macdevcenter. com. "I have this one hell of a problem. My computer just keep having a pop up which states "You have a security problem". This stupid as i ran my scanners like three times in a row, with no virus. It ask me to download some stupid anti spy-ware programme which i have to pay for-AntiVirus2008XP. My initial thoughts were that after downloading, problems would be solved, but no, i continued. Anything i do will be interfered by it, even typing this. I tried many solutions, but none work. WOULD SOMEONE HELP ME GET RID OF IT? Configuration: Windows XP" This is what I mean. This doesn't happen on a Mac. When my opponent stated that he wasn't talking about OSs, I understood. This is true and may be the only good thing about Windows computers.
