Mac or PC?

Honestly I'm not much of a technology savvy person, let alone computers.
Although my father is a computer engineer, I never was interested in how computers worked and the different between them. I also had never heard of Mac until it was introduced to me by my friends earlier this year. To me, actually it was all the same.

However, after doing some research and discussing this topic with my friends, I have found that the Mac is actually quite interesting. It's integrated webcam, I heard was one of the best. The resolution, I heard is also quite impressive.

One of the things I heard was that Mac's never freeze, or slow down even though they can have bigger hard drives than a PC. Another recent fact I heard about Mac is that now it is able to run Windows.

There are many opinions that are for and against a Mac and a PC. Some people prefer Macs because they have more to offer, and others prefer a PC because it's simple. It all just depends on the person and their interests.

Another factor is pricing, often people say that Macs are more expensive that PCs, but if you actually compare a $1,200 Macbook to a similar priced HP laptop, the Mac is more attractive.

In my case, I personally take interest in photography, movie making, and music, all of which could benefit me more if I had a Mac. However, I am hardly PC savvy, how would I be able to fair with a Mac? Sometimes I like it simple.

In this battle between Mac and PC, I will have to conclude that I have joined the ranks of Mac.
