Hi guys, I'm not sure if this is in the right section
I'm hailing from my friend's computer because I currently don't have one myself. I had a PC a year ago or so and it broke a lot so I gave it away to my brother. I'm going back to uni next year to finish my anthropology degree and I really need a new laptop.
I'm hoping that someone could help me out because I really don't know anything about computer-stuff and my friend keeps telling me to get a Macbook but, I'm not sure if they can do everything I need it to.
I try reading stuff up on them but, I find it very confusing so I was hoping that I could get some actual feedback from people who could answer my questions. This would be greatly appreciated.. the people at Futureshop talk way over my head and I think they are just trying to sell me crap to make money.
So my questions are:
-I hear that Macs are better than PCs? How so?
-What are the price differences between Macs and PCs that are similar?
-I like to draw and I've heard that Macs are good for that. Some insight?
-I heard that I can't play a lot of games on a mac, is that true?
-Can I burn CDs on a Mac?
-What word-processing program can I use to write my reports?
Thank you so much for your time!! Any question answered is greatly appreciated!!
