Debate: Will Mac Ever Beat PC?

Your bias is showing. The same can be said about windows. Just because there's a start button doesn't mean someone that is computer illiterate can just start using it right away. when you install an application from CD, it's just as easy as windows. When from the internet, it's easier. In Windows you get an installation .exe that lands on your desktop. Mac, you get a .dmg, the suffixes to a n00b mean nothing but gibberish, so .exe and .dmg mean nothing. Windows requires you to click the .exe, mac automatically mounts the .dmg, and the application is inside, just like a folder, with readme's and all, then all you do is put the application where you want it, it doesn't automatically install to your program files like in windows. In Windows, you get hoards of folders and files for an application, and if you have no shortcut for it, to clutter your desktop with, you'll have to search for the .exe for the application. In OS X, all of the files that run the app are in the contents of the application package... under the icon of the application... which means, if you're looking for the application, all your looking for is the icon or name... not the folder and then the .exe.The applications folder rarely has a .bin unless you put it there yourself... in fact, even though I have tons of Unix apps in my applications folder, there is NO .binthe .bin's and the .dmg's are like the windows equivalent to install.exe's, that people usually have all over the desktop, or just throw away. It's not hard to figure that out. The Maximize button blows up a window to the size it needs to be to fit on your screen and show the contents of the window... so if there's little info in the window, it will not take up your whole screen displaying it. The Minimize is obvious and the red one is too... but rather than closing an application, it just closes the window (Some applications that you only need to do one thing with when the window is open will close the application when the window closes).Also, when you're at the desktop, it says "Finder" at the task bar (that is always there no matter what you're doing, in the same spot). If you click that, you can open a new window... you don't have to click the finder icon in the dock.

Terrible question. But Mac is superior to PC which is an argument against the other answer. But Apple always does their best work when they're fighting against an empire. Back in the 80's the empire was IBM. Today it's Microsoft. They need that kind of villain in order to push themselves.

Apple did fine fighting itself in the 80's. IBM wasn't that big of a deal to them at the time... they both did computers, but Apple had the idea that they would bring the computer home. IBM's were primarily business machines (obviously) that people only wanted for word processing and calculating... taking one home wouldn't be as fun as taking a Mac home...Apple and the Macintosh division fought a lot, and competed with each other... but I don't see a down side. Look at formula 1, 14 thousand changes to a car each season, because of competition... Aircraft engineers are just now starting to use the same material that Formula 1 was using in the late 80's... competition brings progression. I see no downside.

Hands Down,mac is hands on ` user friendly.. I'm a grandma mac user and have been since 1994. It's all about willingness to go with the creative flow with mac, using instead of swimming against, the current. The intuitive, the ease is the 21st century transition from 'making things harder than they need to be, and enforced reliance on a "geek".. to joy of connection and learning for all of us!! Our youngest grandkids are making choices to wait till they come home to use the mac, because the p.c. at school is "just too 'dumb". There seem to be natural choices, macs used in Qi Centers, by people in spiritual growth communities. A movement away from consumerism to sustainability, as the elder Macs have lasted longer for relevance' than disposable p.c.s It seems true that, Life doesn't invite the 'changing face of the future in, we've always pushed our way in with reason' behind a fierce sense of loyalty to what we value.

LOL please!!! LOL LOL ummm key word Market... well first u have to have something to market :) You guys have admited that they dont make alot of things for MACs games, software etc wonder why....Let me guess you all think a MAC is more secure than a PC too??? please someone say something yeah like what viruses are for macs or soemthing like that...LOL there is a reason MAC's dont get viruses its cause there not used like PC's are.... Give me a MAC and a PC beside each other with all ther dandy security tools you can possibly run.... PC will win it has the most experience in that field... MAC is not more secure it is less secure for the fact its never had the market for hackers to attack the OS massively. It has a ton of exploits...there jsut now starting to hit... www.securityfocus.com is a great place to hang out.NEXT!

I'm not going to hold the way you are talking against all PC users, but it's hard taking you seriously when you sound like a kid.PC stands for Personal Computer. MAC stands for Media Access Control which is the name of an address built into your ethernet devices.Apple computers aren't for gamers, but most Windows machines aren't for gamers either. When you're talking about gaming you're limiting yourself to a very specific crowd and set of system components.Software for OSX is plentiful. If you're working primarily in media you're going to want to use an Apple computer. For general home or business user there's nothing they need that doesn't come on OSX except maybe Microsoft Access. Minus games, OSX leaves you wanting for nothing.The really nice thing about OSX software, especially smaller applications, is that the people who write it seem to care a lot more about what they are doing. If you want an application which does a specific something in OSX you're only going to find a couple options, but they're going to be pretty well done. Do the same thing for Windows and you'll encounter a couple good options and then hundreds of poorly written pieces of crap.Windows does have more experience fending off viral problems, but now you're only talking about new Windows installations. Your spam is being generated by the hundreds of thousands of Windows machines that still have problems and no one interested in fixing them. Meanwhile, most of the marketplace doesn't want to move to Vista where finally Windows users are confronted with a competent security infrastructure.You assertion that OSX is less secure due to lack of market penetration is just silly. You have no evidence to back up that claim. You are essentially making things up.And you need to use the spell check next time you try to post.

Apple is the face of computing innovation. While Microsoft and PC hardware manufacturing companies are stuck in the past, Apple is forging ahead, first with the revolutionary iPhone, and with Mac OS X Leopard 10.5, which received critical acclaim far and beyond what Vista achieved. Vista was a step backwards-in security, in functionality, in user interface. Leopard was a step into the future. Don't forget-Apple first implemented mice user interface devices, graphical user interfaces, and computer drawing software. Microsoft , while leading in market share currently, is slowly falling behind the R&Dpowerhouse of Apple. There are still those who argue that PCs have more software availability than Macs. To those making that argument, welcome to the 21st century. Macs run just about every consumer application in existence, can run most games, and if you need more, just run Windows on a Mac (Boot Camp, VMWare, Parallels)! Mac bundled software (ahem...iLife) kicks bundled Windows software's ass and will continue to do so. Surely, Apple will overtake Microsoft's market share in personal computing, if not because of their innovation and technology, then because of their user-friendly interface, little to no learning curve, and simply functional software.

It depends on what Microsoft does with it's next release. Windows right now is bloated, trying to support decades old technology and design patterns. The reason OS X still exists and is on the rise is because Apple basically started fresh with OS X (ok to be truthful all OS X is neXt, but fresh when compared to Old World macs), and in doing so allowed it to shed off all those old ideas and stop having to support bad design principles. Granted part of the reason they were able to do this and Microsoft wasn't was because they didn't have the enterprise install bass that Microsoft does, but that doesn't change the fact that it puts Apple in a better position now. So unless Microsoft has plans to radically change what they are doing now in comparison to Windows 7, they are going to be stuck in the same boat as they are now with Vista (Released late, bloated and full of inconsistencies). This doesn't even take into account the fact that Microsoft is rumored to make 7 modeler, which could serious hurt them where they are strongest, businesses. At this moment the brighter future looks for Apple, and I don't see that changing.

Macs will eventually take over the computing market in terms of productivity. Mac book already have invaded the college life's of most students and have therefore shown they are better for such things such as word processing.But the real question is...how does Linux come into play?

Macs will not take over. People are getting wise to just how insidious the Apple design mandate is. It keeps people on a treadmill of upgrades, produces lots of non-expandable kit to reduce lifespan, is far from environmentally friendly, has relatively poor QA, is costly, prone to massive design blunders and isn't open source e.g. peer-reviewed. Think different and embrace linux!

Productivity, not in general.I don't think it will take over the PC market, but it has a very high viability in some situations for computing needs Ex. College students, Music/video production etc. like stated before.Read more carefully before jumping to conclusions...

The issues arises from the principles that guide the development of each hardware and software combination.Apple develops hardware and software together, thus Mac OSX is meant to run on specifically designed Mac Hardware.Microsoft develops software to run on any hardware, thus Windows is meant to be universal.So why is Mac better? Because the software and hardware is designed to work together, whereas PC's are designed to allow for universality. PC's will have more issues arise from this.

The mac is AMAZING-first of all, everyone knows that the mac surpasses the PC in gaming (it lets you directly connect the hard drive memory WITH the graphics card)-loading is fast as heck with all this memory, also you can download all you want- but most importantly, you can do ANYTHING on the mac that you can on a PC. LITTERALLY. Mac GIVES you all the software you need and they give you BootCamp. It lets you run your mac as a PClike with the click of a button you can run windows instead of apple. so its impossable that pc can be better because a mac can run as a pc easily. Then you get all the awesomeness of a mac

As a I.T. professional who has built her own machines (PC) since age 13, I can say without doubt that Apple's MacIntosh easily and elegantly beats the pants off of anything happening in the PC world.They get the ribbon for ease of use, for embrace of open source, for unobtrusive updates that do not eat your machine alive, and for thin coding solutions.I have just switched from PC to MAC after losing yet another PC to Microsoft's Update and I tell you right now... not only will I never go back, I will, can, and am implementing MAC rather than PC in every company I consult.The days of supporting corporate and market driven "solutions" that are clunky, do not work well together, and require constant supervision to maintain performance, and are priced to bleed you are OVER here. Yes, MAC IS awesome and if you have not spent more than a month with one, you really have no idea how it can be.... when you reach that moment when you stop and say, "Wow... you know, I haven't had a single problem..." well, let's just say it's a powerful thing.

As soon as people learn that PC is ripping them off by creating all these firewalls and stuff for extra money that PC's NEED in order to properly run, whereas Mac's come totally equiped with everything you need and upgrades are FREE and easy to get. It even TELLS you when one is available! And now a lot of games can be played on Mac's too.

Pc is ripping them off?that is a joke, right?i mean, besides the fact that mac isnt compatible with half of the hardware out there, so you have to spend loads more for crappy hardware..."PC's NEED in order to properly run"funny. i went a whole 2 years without antivirus software, and only ran the standard FREE windows firewall.. and didnt get a virus.at the end of the two years I got AVG FREE antivirus.. still havent gotten a virus."It even TELLS you when one is available!"oh. hi. um.. windows notifies you of an update, and automatically downloads it.. for free.btw, Mac does not come 100% prepared. the only reason macs arent as virus prone as PC is because macs arent as popular. Sorry, son, but macs get viruses just as easily, they just need different viruses than windows. there are currently a few mac viruses out there, and as macs gain in popularity, viruses will start to be programmed left and right for them. infact, the point in which mac overtakes teh market will be its downfall, because then the majority of viruses will be written for mac, and it will fall apart HARD because of ignorant mac users that think they cant get viruses - so they dont have an antivirus.btw, linux is free, and can do anything a mac can.. and the way linux is setup makes it almost impossible to write a virus for it. Linux is PC

People are rejecting Windows Vista because it isn't that much better than XP. Mac, on the other hand, continues to put out some decent hardware and an excellent OS. With the popularity of the iPods, and of course the iPhone, Macintosh is ready to take advantage of Microsoft's bad reputation.Eventually, I think that we will see the tide change in favor of the Macintosh. Or, Microsoft will just simply buy Macintosh, run it into the ground, and our only choice for operating systems will be Linux.

i'm a 14 year old boy and find the mac's so much easier to use than PC's. when i went on my first mac, i was instantly hooked on the thing. the controls were easy to use, the software was easy to navigate through, and if you haven't noticed recently, Mac has passed the biggest PC company, microsoft on the stock markets just last week.

I'm definitely a PC person because I play games. And there is just plain more software in general for Windows.However, I think it's no contest from a design perspective. Mac hardware is more standardized (eg, ATI vs Nvidia) and more plug&play(compare airport to a pc router). MacOS is at least as reliable as XP, probably more - less futzing around, no registry crap -- and then if you consider the lack of viruses that target Macs... Oh and Vista is a total PoS.Only thing that makes me nervous about Macs is they only have one mouse button. That's just... weird.

Mac's have two click mice and have been factory compatible with them since the release of OS X in 2000. Before OS X it was a "Cnt+Click" which was more complicated and time consuming, but it was still there. If for whatever reason you don't believe me, because some don't, follow the link:http://store.apple.com/1-800-MY-APPLE/WebObjects/AppleStore.woa/wa/RSLID?mco=MTQ0OTI&fnode=home/shop_mac/mac_accessories/mice_keyboards&nplm=MB112LL/A That's the Mighty Mouse, which in a lot of ways sucks, but if you're just using a computer it's great. For gaming you want a different mouse. I agree, Vista is a PoS.

Macs are superior for consumer and artisitic uses. They are not as problematic as PC's because you don't "upgrade" them with hardware, rather, you upgrade with software. I don't know if anyone here has noticed but Mac software actually gets lighter as it progresses. What I mean is, while I do admit that it's not "lighter" on memory, and lighter on your HD or processor, it can manage itself in a way that it seems lighter. For example, I have an iMac G3 (255Ghz I believe, something very primitive) with only 300-something Mb of 66Mhz SDRAM, and it actually runs better with Tiger 10.4.11 than with the OS that it came out with (MacOS9). Hardware in the Macs are tailored to fit together. They are not meant to upgrade (beyond memory and storage), so Apple fits each part and tests the performance to insure no individual component bottlenecks any other component. PC's have this problem all of the time, whether from a company or custom. You will have the best processor on the planet, the best memory, and the best video card, but your North and/or Southbridge chip cannot manage the performance, thus rendering all of your money and effort illegitimate. That was an example, there are many many many ways to bottleneck performance... and Apple knows that this cannot happen with their machines because one bad (and irreplaceable) part can ruin an entire line of computers.There are so many reasons why Macs will always out perform PC's, whether it's the OS you're running (OSX>Linux>Win), the hardware, the quality of hardware or manufacturing, the warrenty, the initial cost and cost overall (after purchase in the form of hardware/software upgrades or replacements). Mac dominates PC's in usability for both the average consumer and the pro-user.  Now, if you're talking $$$ and Specialty applications (Scientific or gaming) PC's are better. For gaming because the market for gaming is larger for PC's because most people don't look at macs. Game developers work to make more money, more PC's than Macs means that they will develop for PC's.

Macs already have beaten PCs. Just because PCs are much more popular does not mean that they have won. All that means is that they are cheap.A new Mac comes with almost all of the software that you need. A PC comes with crappy trial software. PCs do not have as good of hardware, get more viruses, and you need to buy more of the software for them. Macs already have beaten PCs.Once Macs become more popular than PCs is when we need to think about the possibility of them losing.P.S.- Macs are NOT PCs. PC refers to a computer that is IBM PC compatible. Macs have an EFI, not BIOS, so they are NOT IBM PC compatible and are NOT PCs. Just because something is a Home Computer does not mean it is a PC.

I have had a Mac for a year, I still have a Dell PC which has broken down three times. I love my Mac I do use MS office being in college. I am trying to experiment with pages from mac. I do think that Mac is great and in time it could overtake MS or take over such a percentage that Windows would be forced to support Mac programs like pages Keynote, Numbers. The result would be no matter what program a person used another persons computer would be able to open it. If things stay the same I will never buy a PC again.

Anyone who uses mac and pc on a regular bases will understand why windows are terrible and macs rock. Unless you use both on a regular bases you're argument is invalid. Why spend $600 to $900 on a pc. It's only good for games when you can spend a lot less on a console. Macs win in every other aspect.
