Entry Number Five; Are You A Right Clicka or an iBook Flippa?
What is this!? The war against PC and Mac continues. When will this ever end? Probably never assuming both will release more program upgrades, technological styles and designs in the near future. It really depends, seriously. Some prefer using Mac, some people prefer PC and some people even prefer using both!

Although in my personal experience, using PC for the past years made it grow out on me. Not that I fully prefer it over Mac but it's just that I have been using PC for a longer time and never really got to use Mac. But I am sure it will grow out on me too if ever I get the chance to use it. Each of them has some pros and cons that makes them stand out from one another.

First, let me start with PC. I find it irrelevant that most people would be like "Oh. My. Gosh. PC sucks and change it to Mac." or even "PC has so many viruses." One thing I'd say: "PC has been out there longer than Mac so obviously more people would own it compared to Mac. So it's quite an obvious fact that more viruses would appear on PC due to it being out there so long ago. Besides, there are what you call Anti-Virus programs. So I think you should really think about this fact before whining on how PC gets more viruses than Mac. More PC users = More programmers/hijackers or things to deal with" PC also has been always user-friendly to its users. About this, assuming I use PC more so I don't know much about it, honestly.

On the other hand, Mac has a very sleek design compared to PC notebooks. It is lightweight which is very useful when traveling also has a wide screen display and is quicker and easier to upgrade the RAM and hard drive compared to PC. It has "better security" compared to PC. [Refer to the italic text on theparagraph above] Mac also has a clever MagSafe connector which helps protect the system from damages. Although it has a very glossy and sleek design, sometimes casts glares on it under direct lighting. Also, the entry-level MacBook consistenly has been more expensive than the entry-level iBook models and low-end Windows notebooks.

Program-wise, I think both are practically the same. Assuming Mac now offers Microsoft Office, it's easy for PC users to switch to Mac if they use these programs regularly. Although graphics wise, I personally think Mac notebooks are more upgraded than most PC notebooks. So as a person who loves making graphics like me, I'd obviously want a better graphics/digital card. But it is much harder to search for Mac-compatible programs compared to PC.

So in the end, they both have their pros and cons and I seriously think they should stop this nonsense. But hey! It's quite entertaining watching videos on Youtube about these things. ;D
