Great real life story.
Microsoft had a period of time when only Windows 8 computers were available, now they have rereleased Windows 7 and new computers are available loaded with Windows 7.
I had to replace my 8 year old XP laptop at that time and went the Mac route as well.
I need to operate daily with multiple Microsoft programs so I installed Parallels 8 and purchased a copy of Windows 7.
Now I have a spectacular computer that is solid and stable, have two versions of Microsoft Professional (2003 and 2010) loaded and Windows 7 runs extremely well.
Additionally some printers do not have super great drivers on the Mac platform but I’m running Windows so the 10,000 pages I printed in the last month printed perfectly.
I love AirPrint and three of our four printers have AirPrint.
It really is the best of both worlds!
PS. I purchased and set up a 13” Mac Air for a client last month. 8GB RAM, i7 and a 512 GB SSD. Sharp machine and she’s super happy (she did not like either of her Win 8 computers).
Happy computing!
my kids use windows 8.1, they like to pin their games (Minecraft)etc to the tiles for quick access, wife has apple..and I use ubuntu
