[FlyJ]

 

This article will help you to find out why millions of people around the world prefer a PC over the Mac. Though they both possess several beneficial and valuable features and services, various things still compel you to think twice before buying your desired system – PC or Mac. It does not mean that Mac has failed in achieving its goal, but the simple purpose is to make out the 10 reasons why a PC is better than a Mac. So, let’s start gathering the reasons.

 

#1 - Better for Games

 

Truth is that you’ll probably enjoy playing games on PC much better than on Mac. PCs are better than Macs for gamers. The increasing graphics and size of games make PCs a more preferable and enjoyable option as compared to a Mac. If you want to play modern games, every time swapping out graphic cards can make it a difficult task. GameTap and Steam plays a great role in making a PC gaming-on-demand service with thousands of current titles, but GameTap in Mac works only with Intel and not for all titles.

#2 - Highly Cost-Effective

 

PCs are more cost effective than Macs. Apple has formed a one-pricing all over the world, for all Mac related things. But with a PC, you can easily find various manufacturers, thousands and thousands of retail stores, plenty of restorsated parts etc, which makes you able to build your own purpose-built machine. You have tons of choices to select the one based on your budget and needs that keep you away from getting a hole in your pocket if you want to experience advanced technology.

 

#*** - Easy To Build & Customize

 

Install any Windows version & homemade software. Mac is not easy to build and be customized. You have to stick to your offered system given by Apple that you have to operate for a set price, while a PC gives you a facility to install your preferred Windows roadster and even take pleasure of accessing plenty of technologies with homemade software.

 

#4 - Windows Compatibility

PCs work effectively with new and old Windows versions. Mac can run Windows easily, but has not proved good enough to boot up XP, which is highly compatible and can easily be performed on PC. You could say that Apple has to work long way to make its users satisfied with Mac. Don't even know if Mac OS can run on PC #JustSaying.

 

#5 – Effective USB Broadband

 

Enjoy the Internet using USB broadband for long hours USB broadband modems do not work properly on Macs. When a customer calls support service for assistance due to any technical issue, they are often not satisfied with the tech-support provided by Apple. Finding a consistent ISP system that also supports Mac is often a headache for you. At that time, a PC comes to mind because it can support well-matched and effective services.

 

#6 – Microsoft Office

PCs support the powerful Microsoft Office with various solutions. Many people buy PCs because of the very powerful software, Microsoft Office. It is a fact that no other software does Word and Excel tasks better than Microsoft Office does. It is also a powerful solution for building databases, email and PowerPoint presentations. However, you can get MS Office for Mac but with several missing features.

 

#7 – Hardware Flexibility

 

You can add or remove any PC hardware component. Flexibility of hardware is another reason a PC is a better system than Mac. You can open your PC anytime and can add or remove any part as per your needs. You can install the latest graphic card, can upgrade the RAM and can also replace any non-working component. If you wish, you are completely free to assemble your own PC with your own desired components rather than buying a pre-made system. You cannot do such things with Mac on your own.

 

#8 – Highly Secure

 

A PC is now considered by many as a more secure system than Mac in terms of viruses & hackers. Mac has more security issues than using PC. It is said that Apple has designed its graphical user-interface (GUI) with a more secure system far away from viruses, which it not completely true. The popularity of Mac has attracted more hackers to harm the Mac. It has become less secure and costs more, so we can give one more positive point to PC users.

 

#9 – Additional Valuable

 

Features PCs make your task easier by manipulating files facility. After various versions of Mac OS X, it still does not hold the many features that make Windows Explorer such a valuable tool. PCs allow you to resize windows from any corner, you can cut and paste files and move them around, and you can even rename files. It means a PC gives you the facility to manipulate files, which keeps Mac behind in providing such a facility to its users.

 

#10 - Better Media Compatibility

 

Turn your PC into video recorder & enjoy favorite television shows. PCs offer much better media compatibility that allow you to turn your PC into a powerful personal video recorder. Not only this, it also makes you able to record your favourite shows and enjoy watching them whenever you want to and also provides outstanding onscreen television guides. Macs do not support any kind of television feature.

 

However, PCs don’t always come out on top in the battle with Macs.
