“The advantages and disadvantages of Windows vs. Macintosh computer systems”

I do believe that from small to largest companies, and all types of businesses in the whole wide world, computers, internet and software are a necessity. So we must choose the best among the best. I was a longtime Windows user, but decided to switch to Mac. As I see it, here is a quick summary of some of the advantages and disadvantages of owning a Mac.

Advantages of Apple Computers

Security. Apple computers are much more secure than Windows PCs. Viruses, adware and malware designed for a Windows-based processor simply will not run on a Mac. More than enough to say its kinda upsetting. Especially for those whose income is derived through the computer world. The main reason for this is simply that there are much fewer Macs in use. People who make malicious software want to have it spread to as many people as possible and designing a virus for a Mac simply will not accomplish this.

Reliability. The people who make the Mac software are the same people who make the Mac hardware. While Windows programmers have to take into account nearly infinite variations in hardware, Mac OS is designed to be used on a very limited amount of computers: those built by Apple. The software is designed specifically to run on the hardware. This means that the operating system is much more stable.

Macs are convenient. Do you own an iPod? An iPhone? Do you listen to music with iTunes? Do you appreciate how simple, elegant and easy to use these products are? Apple applies all of the things you like about these products to their computers. Yes, there will be a time of adjustment to using Mac OS, but once you are used to it, you will love it.

Advanced technology. The current generation of Macbook Pros feature LED monitors, multi-touch mouse trackpad and a CNC machined aluminum case. Desktop Mac Pros feature up to 8 core processors (yes, eight) and up to 4 TB of storage (TB=Terabyte). That’s four thousand (4000) GB.

A Mac can do anything a Windows PC can. With Apple computers now using Intel processors, they are able to run Windows. With programs like Bootcamp or software emulation, you are able to install and run Windows on your Mac and switch between the two OSs easily. Macs come with a Mail utility with the same functionality as Microsoft Outlook. The iWork line of software comes with Pages, Keynote and Numbers which can function as replacements for Word, PowerPoint and Excel. Each of these programs can export files in a format that can be used in Windows software. Or, if you don’t want to try iWork, Microsoft offers a Mac-compatible version of Office.

Disadvantages of Mac Computers.

They’re only more secure because fewer people use them. If everybody used Macs, there would be a lot more viruses and malware for them. If Apple computers became more popular, they would become less secure.

Cannot be upgraded/customized. There are upgrade options when you buy a Mac, but unlike a Windows PC, you cannot mix and match components. The easiest way to upgrade a Mac is to buy a new one.

Price. Macs are very expensive. Even the cheapest laptop costs $999.99. Windows machines cost as little as $500.

Playing games requires Windows. There are very few games available for the Mac. If you are a gamer, a Mac is probably not the best choice. You could run Bootcamp, but if you are going to spend most of your time on a Mac running Windows, you have to ask yourself if it is worth it. Another option (and the one I have taken) is to play games on a video game console, such as a PS3 or Wii, and simply use your computer for computing.

It requires adjustment. It’s a Windows-based world. Most people are used to using Windows. Changing to a Mac requires that you get used to a number of differences. Some people are simply not willing to make that change.

Mac OS — easier to use, nicer to look at, safer (less people looking for holes in the OS).

Windows — cheaper (when combined with a computer purchase), huge user support network, easy to customize and repair, support for a gazillion hardware and software extensions.

My worst gripes about Mac — limits your choice — for example, want to play music??? you have to use iTunes and an iPod. As hot as the new intel platform is, I think it’s taking many software vendors too long to keep up.

My worst gripe about Windows — the people who need the anti-virus and anti-spy the most, don’t use it, consequently making the platform more dangerous for everyone. I use free security software, and I’ve never had a problem with security.

Glenn Blaylock: Yes, perhaps MAC software costs less, but when combined with hardware, a windows/intel platform is about 20% less on average, for a full blown computer. Also — most users don’t need the advanced features of XP/pro or the stuff you can find under the hood of OS X. It’s true OS X is a great OS — being a UNIX head myself — but I have no interest in getting under the hood of a computer I use for email and web browsing.

Mac vs. Windows Laptops

In addition, let me inform you that I bought my first Apple laptop, the MacBook Air. I’ve never loved a laptop more. The skinny profile, the ease of carrying it around, the full-sized keyboard and screen, the slick Mac OS X Leopard operating system, the…Okay, enough of that. I’m not interested in writing another “Macs are great, Windows computers are dog meat” religious conversion story. I’ve been using both Macs and Windows PCs for years. Each has its pros and cons.

Instead, I’m interested in addressing the lingering concern about Macs: They’re more expensive than comparable Windows machines.

So I decided to see if this concern is valid. I didn’t perform an exhaustive, detailed survey. Rather, I compared the specs and prices of three current Apple laptops–the MacBook, MacBook Air, and MacBook Pro–against their likely Windows laptop competitors. Here’s what I found.

MacBook vs. Dell XPS M1330

The MacBook is Apple’s most mainstream laptop, and Dell’s XPS M1330 seems to be a reasonable counterpart. Both have 13.3-inch displays and built-in Webcams, and are aimed at general-purpose users who like multimedia features.

I configured online a MacBook and Dell XPS M1330 with specs as closely matched as possible. Both had 2GB of memory, a 160GB hard drive running at 5400 rpm, a 2.4-GHz Intel Core Duo 2 processor, Intel integrated graphics media accelerator (X3100), and Bluetooth 2.0. I chose the Dell 56Whr battery option (an extra $79), which is comparable to the MacBook’s standard 55Whr battery. I also added the $99 optional bundle of Adobe Photoshop Elements and Premiere Elements to the Dell laptop. The MacBook ships with Apple’s iPhoto and iMovie applications, part of its iLife suite, at no extra cost.

The bottom line: The Dell laptop that I configured cost $1308. The MacBook was $1299.

Worth noting: When I upgraded the hard drive in both computers to 250GB, the Dell laptop cost $1358 and the MacBook, $1399, tipping the balance slightly in Dell’s favor. Also, Dell offers more configuration options than does Apple.

Price advantage: Apple, by a hair.

MacBook Air vs. Lenovo ThinkPad X300

Lenovo has gone head-to-head with Apple with its ultra-thin ThinkPad X300, going so far as to creating a TV ad spoofing the MacBook Air. The ThinkPad X300, compared to the Air, is a “no-compromise ultraportable,” Lenovo’s ad claims. Our reviewer agreed. Darren Gladstone wrote: “What the ThinkPad X300 lacks in style, compared with the Air, it more than makes up for with better features and more functionality.”

It seemed fitting to compare the Air to the X300 in configurations as closely matched as possible. Still, there were differences. When I configured these systems, the X300 was available only with an Intel Core 2 Duo chip at 1.2 GHz, while the Air could be configured with 1.6-GHz or 1.8-GHz versions of the Intel chip. In the X300’s favor, that laptop can be configured with a built-in optical drive, but not the Air.

Here’s what my configurations of both laptops had in common: a 13.3-inch display, 2GB of memory, light weight (the ThinkPad X300 weighs about 3.4 pounds vs. the Air’s 3 pounds), a built-in Webcam, and a 64GB solid-state drive.

The bottom line: The X300 cost $2612 as of 6/20/08. Add $99 for Adobe’s photo and video editing software and the total cost was $2711. In comparison, an Air with the 64GB solid-state drive is $3098. Add another $99 for an external optical drive and the Air costs $3197, or $486 more than the X300.

Worth noting: When I configured these two systems, Lenovo had a “limited-time offer” of 20 percent off the X300. Without the discount, the X300 I configured would have been $3370, plus $99 for the Adobe software, or $3469. That’s $272 more than the Air. Also, if you’re not wedded to a solid-state drive, you can buy an Air with an 80GB-hard drive for $1799. Add the $99 external drive, and this Air costs $1898 compared to the X300’s discounted total of $2711. That’s a difference in the Air’s favor of $813 with Lenovo’s 20 percent-off discount and a whopping $1571 without it. Also, a standard hard drive is not an option with the X300.

Price advantage: The X300, but only if you get the discount. If you don’t, the Air gets the nod. [Update: Soon after this article was published, the price of a MacBook Air with a 64GB solid-state drive dropped to $2598, making the Air less expensive than the ThinkPad X300--even with a discount. --Editor]
MacBook Pro vs. HP’s Compaq 8710w Mobile Workstation

As its name implies, Apple’s MacBook Pro is designed for professional users. It’s a particular favorite among still image and video editors as well. So I compared it to HP’s Compaq 8710w Mobile Workstation, also built for professionals.

My configurations had this in common: 17-inch displays with 1680 by 1050 pixel resolution, dedicated graphics cards, 250GB hard drives at 5400 rpm, 2GB of memory, and 2.6-GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processors.

There were some differences, of course. For example, the HP computer features a biometric fingerprint scanner, which the MacBook Pro lacks.

The bottom line: The MacBook Pro that I configured was $3049. The HP Compaq 8710w was $3561. Adding the Adobe image and video editing software brings it to $3661. The HP Compaq 8710w came standard with a three-year HP extended warranty. A similar warranty from Apple costs an extra $349. If you factor that in, the price difference makes the MacBook Pro just $263 less than the HP notebook.

Worth noting: HP offers similarly configured laptops marketed to consumers for less. For example, I configured an HP dv9700t for consumers with specs similar to the MacBook Pro and the HP Compaq 8710w for $1818 (I configured this system on 7/7/08, so it may not provide an apples-to-apples price and spec comparison to the systems I configured on 6/20.) The dv9700t I configured didn’t include an extended warranty, however, which would have added $249 or $349, depending upon the warranty option chosen.

Price advantage: The MacBook Pro.
Other Considerations

Price aside, there are other factors in the Mac vs. Windows debate. Among them:

* Windows computers are perpetual targets for spyware and viruses. Macs are targeted, too, but not to the same degree.
* The Mac OS and Apple computers both come from the same company. While Macs aren’t trouble free, you’re less likely to experience as many unexplainable crashes and incompatibilities as you might on a Windows PC.
* Apple has earned top scores from PC World readers in reliability and service. See “Laptop Buying Tips, Part 1,” for more detail
* The Mac OS X Leopard is a clever, nimble operating system and a pleasure to use. Windows Vista is a behemoth. While not the demon it’s often made out to be, it ain’t the Mac OS, either.
* Apple laptops have thoughtful design touches, such as keyboards that illuminate automatically in dim lighting.
* There are many more laptop choices in the Windows world, and at a greater variety of price points.
* There are still plenty of software applications available for Windows only. (You can run Windows on Macs, of course, using Apple’s Boot camp, which is included in Mac OS X Leopard, or a third-party virtualization program such as Parallels Desktop for Mac (about $68 online).

Adding It All Up

Don’t buy into the old argument that Mac laptops are categorically more expensive than Windows machines. Sometimes that’s true–but they’re often on par with, or cost less than, their closest Windows laptop equivalents.

If you know me, you know I love technology. As a matter of fact, you quickly become an information booth amongst your closest friends (or at least they try to keep you close for the knowledge). It’s one of the main reasons why I started my own service company to service local and online computer folks with infected PCs.

With that being said, I really truly enjoy this computer store. I can find any part I need on the cheap. Typically 50-100 cheaper then anywhere else because they refurbish the parts like new. I’m ok with that. I go through parts like a I go through shoes, so I have no problem changing them out when I need to.

I was referred to Vimeo.com Video service by a mentor of mine who put his video up on Vimeo from my MLM company. I got excited because the length of videos were more than YouTube’s cap rate of 10min a video. Therefore, I paid the $60 yearly fee for uploading a lot of videos. I requested my money back and they said no because I didn’t read their fine print.

I do a lot of video training so Vimeo appeared to be perfect. Well Vimeo sent me a warning stating that I was violating terms of service because my content contained advertising for business. I was shocked. Considering my upline was using it.

They specifically state “you may not upload videos pertaining to Multi Level Marketing (MLM), get rich quick, cash gifting, work from home business, or any other dubious money making ventures.” There you have it. I took a referral from someone and I didn’t read the fine print. It was definitely my bad but hold up here… Why is Vimeo hating on MLMs? Not all MLMs are legit, which I understand and some do get shut down, but don’t knock the whole industry. The concept of MLM’s are no different than any traditional brick and mortar business. Ok sure, you got employees instead of reps. You won’t get rich unless you duplicate yourself. At a job you get paid what they think you are worth. Sure it takes a new mindset for the MLM industry, but it’s the only industry I know you can get passionate about to empower others, get paid for it, and build freedom. If an employee steals from your business, it gets emotional. Sometimes he/she can become a competitor to your business. In MLM’s there is no stealing. It’s called leverage so you can duplicate. They should seriously teach MLM education in schools. It’d get those that are interested in sales thinking early in life. After all, life is all about MLM and Sales.

Step 1- I use this tool called “Facebook FriendAdder” [Download It Here]

Step 2- I found a group that was my target audience

I’m going to give an example
Let’s say the network marketing company is called 5Linx
I blasted out to add 30-50 people from an 8000 5-Linx group while auto adding them that said:

“Hello, my name is Cesar Ramirez and I just found you in the fan page for 5Linx. I have a tool that I use which has generated me over 50 targeted leads in a single day. If this tool helps you out, you can thank me later. You and your business deserve the tool: http://AttractedLeads.com”

Bam! It worked like butter. Now the 5Linx folks are taking the bait thinking I’m in 5Linx and this is exactly how reverse psychology works in business. You are not lying to them because you never said you were in XYZ company. All I said was that I just found you in that fan page.

I no longer have to add friends manually and this to me is like having multiple hooks out there. Enjoy and please RETWEET at the top if this empowered you in anyway.

Your partner in success,

There are mix reviews on why you should or shouldn’t. One of if not the main reason I jailbroke my iPhone is that I didn’t feel I should pay another mobile internet fee ($60+) to use my laptop. It’s like owning 2 cars. One has great gas mileage but you are force to drive the gas hogger when you take a long road trip. You deserve options.

I don’t do heavy downloading via tethering and you shouldn’t either. Anything over 5GBs in a month will throw a red flag to your provider. Just doing some moderate checking of email, blogging, and surfing the web should be fine.

Second, I love my iPhone. I believe it deserves a sexy look and it does. I hated the first version I owned because I had a terrible experience with the speaker going out on me in the 1st day of use. But the 3GS is awesome and has a much faster response rate because of the processor.

Third and probably most important. You have an endless amount of 3rd party applications that allow you to do some stuff not available through the Apple store. As an example, I have an application called “iBlacklist” which allows me to block certain phone numbers or blocked numbers from calling me. There are emulators to play your favorite Nintendo, Super Nintendo, Sega Genesis, Gameboy and GB Advanced, etc.. games on your iPhone. If that’s not enough, you can treat your iPhone like a Wifi Router and allow it to serve a few laptops in your house. And finally, my most absolute favorite application is qTweeter which allows me to send a quick blog to Facebook and Twitter from any application I’m in just by sliding my finger down from the top to the bottom.

I will eventually add a favorite list of apps that I love on here. As you can see, I’m very passionate about 3rd party applications because it allows the end user to experiment with new possibilities. It also allows the app developer to get their name out there in recognition for these amazing applications.
