Are Macs More Expensive than PCs?

Tuesday, June 26th, 2007 | Mac Resources, Mac vs Windows | No Comments

One of the things I hear Windows users say is that Macs are expensive. Many people settle for a PC because they can buy one at $600. Scot Finnie published an article for Computerworld.com examining the cost differences between Macs and PCs. He has some good comparisons. I like the article, because I think Scot has done a good work on the comparisons and it supports my opinion that Macs are competitively priced in relation to PCs. If you do your own comparison, just remember to compare similarly configured models.

Jobs and Gates in Conversation

Wednesday, February 21st, 2007 | Apple News, Mac vs Windows | 2 Comments

A report comes by way of iTWire that the All Things Diginal conference in March will feature Steve Jobs and Bill Gates in an onstage conversation.  This is a rare event.  The iTWire reporter describes it as “rarer even than a solar eclipse.”  I anticipate that there will be video footage of this conversation.  The All Things Digital web site is not full developed yet.  However, you can submit your email for notification when the site is live.  This should be interesting.  I’m looking forward to seeing it.

Did Microsoft Copy OS X to Create Windows Vista?

Tuesday, December 19th, 2006 | Mac vs Windows, Reviews | No Comments

Technology columnist David Pogue at New York Times doesn’t think so.  Or does he?  Apple posted a review of Windows Vista on its site.  When I saw it, I couldn’t help but wonder, is Apple trying to bridge the divide, reach across the isle?  Or is this another attempt to mock Microsoft?  Questions were flying through my head.  So, I didn’t delay much longer and clicked on the link.  To find out what happened next, you’ll have to click on the link too.   Review: Windows Vista.

Once you’ve seen the video let me know what you think.
