Apple or Microsoft?
29.04.2005
Who is worst? OK. Microsoft copies everything, and gets all the posible market they can. Whatever you want to use always depends of m$. But hey, XP is a solid OS, I really have no problems with it. Everything works, no crashes anymore, if something crash is because the app (not the OS). Also the system is being updated and fixed once a week, for free! You remember those Service Packs? They are all for free. So, hey! M$ is not that bad! Apple does a different kind of marketing they use a lot of money on the posh design to make all the people wish their products, tho as more money they spend on the design, more problems/limitations the design have to hide. They spend a lot of time thinking of good uses of their products, but well, you can do usually all of them with M$ as well. Also, they update the OS every 6 months and you have to pay for it. As soon as you get a new Apple product in some months later there is a better one and you want it. So a lot of money that you are giving to them. So, time to chose, an OS that works and is being updated everyweek for free, where you can work properly, or a posh looking machine with lots of limitations that you have to buy every 3months.
