So I'm only a 16 year old guy, and some of you might not consider my arguments valid simply because I don't have much experience.
I'm a film making geek, I make short films whenever I'm bored. I've always been a PC guy, and last year, I had a film making class in high school for one semester (5 months) and the class was full of Macs.
I used the Mac, I liked some of the features that the Mac had, however, there were many times that frustrated me during using the machine.
1. I've always thought that Macs always looked better than PC's, but as I've read more about computers, I've come to realize that it's only a matter of personal perefrence and screen resolution. You want a glorious monitor on your PC? Buy a 1440p monitor for less than $600.
2. Cost: I don't think I need to mention this, but i'll do it anyway. You can get a PC that's as powerful as a private jet for half the price as a Mac.
Here's a computer build that I'm saving up for, mostly for my 3D animations and Visual Effects: http://ca.pcpartpicker.com/user/WillDano/saved/2xya
I didn't include a monitor in the list, because I already have one. So, in total with a regular 1080p 24in monitor, the price will reach $2000. Now, wouldn't a Mac that has these specs cost AT LEAST $3000?
3. Social Status: Everyone kept saying that they wish they had a Mac, simply because it looks colourful and futureistic. After using the Mac at school the first day, I went back home, used my PC again and thought "I don't see what all the fuss is about..."
Conclusion: Explain to me why you Mac people prefer it so much over PC (other than the fact that you're just simply used to it) and tell me why you'd rather spend at least $1000 more on a desktop Mac that will give you the same performance as a PC that costs $1000 less.
I'm not trying to create an argument, but I just need to know.
