If cars crashed as often as computers...
Sorry, Apple. You just can’t reboot your car or download new drivers.
Speak for your crash prone Windows computers, OrangeHoof.
My daughter shut down my iMac to move it today. . . first time it has been down other then updates for seven years. ZERO CRASHES and been on for all of that time. Let's see. . . 61,368 minimum of continuous operation without a crash. Can you say the same? At my office we have twelve iMacs, three MacBook Airs, one MacMini Server, and a MacPro also running 24/7 for the past seven years. . . so now we have (and although some of those have been upgraded with new machines in that time) SEVENTEEN times 61,368 hours or 1,043,256 hours of continuous operation, and during that time we have experienced exactly TWO crashes. Both of which were cleared by merely restarting the computer. That is an extraordinary record. Can you say the same about your Windows PCs????
If cars crashed as often as computers... PC computers crash, Macs just run ...
The M$ car: giving new meaning to the Blue Screen of Death ...
I was the biggest Apple detractor around, until my sister finally got me to come over to "the dark side". I was having my Dells crash a few times per year, and was replacing them every 2 years. I've had the MacBook pro for just under 6 years so far, and have not had it crash once.
I did have an ant get inside the screen once when I was using it outside, and the mouse trackpad had to be replaced when I spilled water on it... but that is the sum total of all of my problems with this laptop, and I have never once downloaded a single anti-virus program of any kind.
You can hate on the extra cost (which seems worth it to me after 6 years), and the weird Apple culture that some take to extremes, but you cannot accuse Macs of being crash-prone.
