I’m wondering what folks know about an Apple Mac

^+1^

Is a Mac the best long-term solution to Windows problems?

If I can get a Mac to speak and share with Win7, I’d be in computer utopia for a good long time.

I have an old 2006 macbook pro and it is able to share folders with my windows 7 desktop. It is using a very old Mac OS so I would think the latest OS would be more compatible.

Whether it is a long term solution it would depend on what you do. If you only write or use Word/Excel/PowerPoint like documents and surf the Internet than yes. If you want to play most PC games or use many engineering softwares than probably not.

Personally I like Apple’s OS but I have been disappointed with their continuous removal of hardware and upgrade options for their laptops released in the last several years.

I have a Mac as my main computer. Mainly just emails and internet stuff. I have a win7 right next to it for my pictures and extra backup hard drive. Love the Mac!
