[QUOTE="D3v1L80Y, post: 35152, member: 2960"] [b]Reason 1:[/b] One of the biggest pains in the rear of using a Windoze based PC has got to be the damned viruses. Whether its a Trojan or a Worm on the loose, you always have to 'watch your back'. And even if you have the latest and greatest anti-virus app you are still able to be unfortunate enough to encounter one, then kiss your machine goodbye...its reformat time!...isn't loading Windoze fun!!! Wahoo! Three words why it is an extremely smart thing to use a Mac.... NO MORE VIRUSES Yes, it is true...if you switch to a Mac you will never again have to worry about the paranoia or pain of getting a virus on your machine. [b]Reason 2:[/b] Windows Plug and Pray...you plug in your new device and instead of automatically working like it should, you have to spend your afternoon searching for a driver. Then if you find it, you still have to try to install it. No fun. With a Mac, I have never, I repeat [i]never[/i] had a problem with a device not being recognized by the system. [b]Reason 3:[/b] If you hit a wrong key, a Windoze PC can crash. If you decide to update a driver, a Windoze PC can crash If you open an application, a Windoze PC can crash If you so much as sneeze, a Windoze PC can crash. You really, really, really, [i]really[/i] have to do some work to make a Mac crash that often. I am not saying that Macs don't crash, what I am saying is that it happens nowhere near as often as a PC. And even if a Mac does 'crash' it is usually just a single app that crashes...the most you would have to do is just force quit and restart that app, not reboot the entire machine. [/QUOTE]
