Mac is also a PC, so voting PC means nothing.

Yeah true, mate @Agent Maine do you mean Windows OS and Mac OSX ? because if you do mean that then, I prefer Windows because I find it more user intuitive. I know that sounds mad to people that like Mac BUT I find the experience easier :)

 

 

ALSO don't double post *insert angry face here.

PROFILEYEAH

What do people even put in these things?

Voted for Windows, as for me personally Mac isn't layed out very well. I know lots of researchers say otherwise, but for me personally Mac is more time consuming that Windows as I am really used to Windows using it all my life.

 

But ultimately it's up to your personal preference. For gaming Mac is a big fat NO. But for productivity it works very well. Find out what you like before you buy either =P

I'm working on a school project and want to know do you like Windows or Mac and why?

Windows (pre windows 8/ heavily modified windows 8), whenever I have to work on a mac I feel like they intended it for technically challenged people and failed at catering for them. I hate the AI of mac OS. if windows doesn't switch from the whole touch screen crap though, I'm going to move to linux as my main OS once it surpasses windows 7 in ease of access. Mac OS also doesn't have all the support windows has, as well as the fact that I can modify windows way more than Mac. I can even make windows AI look exactly like mac on windows 7.

 

I just see no use in using Mac OS with my knowledge. It also isn't any more virus proof than windows and I don't get viruses easily anyway.

I enjoy using Mac OS X, but the Finder is what cripples it IMO, I voted MS

Windows, its much cheaper, has more software support, and because its more secure than OSX. Also because it has driver support and almost all PC games are on Windows.

Every topic I post in dies.

Windows by far. Why?

•Mac OS X does not have a true full screen mode

•You can't disable mouse acceleration on Mac OS X.

Those reasons are enough already for why I hate OS X.

Amiga Workbench FTW!

 

Seriously - Windows. Mostly because it easy to modify it installation files with programs to make it faster and better looking and kind of raised on it when went to PC.
