Did you see the beach ball of death in my original post? Think that might be a clue I intended it to be Apple Mac bashing?

Bashing aside, if your clients are taking your advice to buy Apple they have a been given advice thats unecessarily wasting their money.

I don’t place much stock in your 35 years experience. I have many years working both platforms in a very intense work setting. I’ll give you the Macs can take a beating. I’ve beat on the things plenty of times. The Windows machines do more and communicate with the rest of the world making them far more efficient.

Apple is a complete feel good cult waste of money. No insult intended.

Ah, you are one of those IT guys who make lots of money bamboozling Windows users into keeping junk. Everyone I've convinced to move to a Mac has thanked me and they have stopped having problems. Your statements show you do not understand the power of Macs at all. Your claim that "Windows machines do more" shows the depths of your ignorance. You seem to think Windows is powerful. . . but my UNIX™ powered operating system is far more powerful than your limited Windows machines as it currently runs three different versions of Windows in sandboxes as well as two versions of Linux, all in windows under OS X.10, sometimes at the same time. . . so that I can provide answers to my clients' questions when they call. I also have a couple of other exotic OSes available, such as THEOS, for some clients that they run for special applications that I can boot up if I need to. Oh, and Macs can communicate with the rest of the world, just fine. . . or do you think that UNIX has trouble doing that? If so, what machine was the World Wide Web invented on? And on what machines do most of the Internet operate on? Computers using Unix derivative OSes such as Linux. What engine do many browsers use? Apple's WEBKIT!

So, I will put my more than 35 years of owning and running a consulting business against your obvious ignorance of anything except Windows anytime.

Now, let's get back to your obvious ignorance of Pay.

What in HELL does the Apple Mac Marble of Doom from 2003 have to do with an iPhone 6 app on iOS from 2014 that DOES EVEN NOT RUN ON A MAC which does not have an NFC transmitter????

That proves you were posting FUD! TROLL! And you obviously admit you are suffering from MAPS.

A feel-good cult? Hmmmm, I’m in the Tea Party; my liberal sister calls that a cult, along with the NRA and my old church.

I bought my first Mac about three years ago after dealing with years of Windows problems. I had BSOD’s or lockups at terrible times. One full crash resulted in the loss of a lot of important data, costing me lots of time and $$$.

I’ve yet to have a problem with my MacBook Pro. It is a worker’s machine, not the do-it-all system for gamers and such. I do not have to purchase additional software for safety and now I back up my data solely in case my laptop is lost or stolen. Because of its quality and function It has been the best computer investment I’ve ever made.

Come to think of it, I do feel good about switching to Mac.
