I just tried for three months and gave up. They made Windows much prettier and the surface is a cool novelty but ultimately the way the file system works made me so inefficient. It's the little things in OSC that allow me to move quickly. There are some things Windows just makes a little trickier to do. If I want to be able to draw digitally I will get an iPadPro instead.
Do it. I hear Power Point is amazing on a PC.
They're dorky.
I use a PC. Come to the dark side.
Windows
But does that really matter? The work you make is what counts. Not necessarily what you make it on.
You'll save money.
I've tried to use Abobe software on a PC and I wanted to blow my brains out.
Viruses
Macs last several years. PC performance decreases after a few.
And you can still upgrade your pc three times for cheaper than the Mac.
Pros for PC: Cheaper, more options available, the entire Office suite runs better on them, and I actually like the PC file system better. Cons: can be cheaply made, more likely to crash when you have multiple processor heavy apps running, don't have preview as part of the file system, lacks the use ability you get from multiple devices in the Apple ecosystem.
I didn't didn't even know people still willingly chose PC's. That's crazy! What state are you from?
Does MS just have a brand problem? Or is the software actually that inferior?
Compatability
Macs are pretty. MacOS is dogshit, but Windows on a Mac gives you brains and beauty
Use one for a day.
Design software usually runs better on Mac. That's why the industry has always used them, even when Windows was more common in households. Maybe you're too young to remember this.
I'm a copywriter (as you can see) and I switched on my personal machine over a year ago. Only thing I miss is preview from the file system but I may code my own app. Lots more third party options on a pc, plus all the games.
Viruses are Mac users way of saying it's better not to have freedom because you could get hurt.
Doesn't creative cloud run the same on either? I know premier does.
