Expensive security software? A Mac user saying $30/year is expensive? That's $2.50/month. How much do you pay for each OS release every other year? Repairs? I've had my PC for 3 years. It's never been "repaired" - same with the one before it that I had for 5 years. Both computers over an 8 year period cost the same as ONE desktop Mac. Pointless crap software? What pointless crap software? Assuming your computer runs Windows, I'll give you Windows Movie Maker, but that's all I can think of. Otherwise, there's this great little "Uninstall" utility in the Control Panel you should really check out. Windows is just a choice. I could have used one of the many varieties of Linux, but I like playing games and using Adobe software and have no problem with Windows because it works fine. I'd probably use OSX if it were available, though. I won't pay a premium because a computer is wrapped in shiny white plastic, but I won't get into it. It's a matter of personal preference, nothing more. |
