Not to mention your PC is affordable. A comparable MAC would cost you a couple of grand. And if used expect Apple to obsolete the OS shortly after.

Oh and a PC can run the FREE OS linux.

Apple computer lost the “for the peoples” title when Siri was exposed as censoring searches that favored conservatives.

You really don't know what you are talking about. Apple's EIGHT YEAR OLD iMacs from 2008 will run OS X El Capitan, just not as fast as later models. That is hardly being obsolete. We just replaced the 2008 models from my office and are currently selling those we replaced for between $350 to $400. Do you seriously think you could sell any Windows PC from 2008 for that kind of money?

We had only one go bad on us during that time. . . and it was not the computer itself that went bad but the backlight on the integral monitor. It would have cost us more to have that fixed than we cared to put into it. . . so we are selling it on eBay for a parts machine. Still works but the screen is dim. It will still sell for over $250. . . at eight years old, because some techy guy out there will put a screen in it from a truly dead iMac and have a great computer that will run the latest Apple OS.

Uh, dhs12345, a Mac can run every single piece of software that a Windows PC can run, and much more. My main Mac is running EIGHT OSes . . . oh, wait, that's 9 now, including two versions of Linux, four versions of Windows, UNIX™, OS X, and iOS, all in sandboxes. I've run them all simultaneously. I posted an article last year where somebody was running 36 DIFFERENT operating systems on his Mac simultaneously.
