OS - Henning B - 03-19-2013 07:08 PM
which OS is the best...
RE: OS - Plural - 03-19-2013 11:23 PM
Isn't Linux and Mac both Unix? Also essentially MAC OSX is a linux distro. Not only that, there are loads of linux distros so putting them all under 1 is pretty much impossible. I would say it's harder to work with Linux because everything is primarily made for windows, although there are linux versions too, companies don't focus on it enough. Stability wise and functionality Linux is a lot better than windows. MAC OSX for me is just an expensive linux distro for which you need expensive hardware but not particullary better than let's say Ubuntu. Not only that, I hate how they also keep everything closed source...
So I guess linux wins overall but everyone uses windows as it is commercialised and everything is primarily made for it.

Mac is a Unix distro, but there are still users of Unix(the Base)

I'm going to have to go with Mac since apple has the best laptops and computers. Keep in mind that i've never owned a Mac though.

They may have a nice design but the hardware itself is very overpriced.
Also I like Ubuntu OS over MAC OSX to be honest.

Yeah, i guess it's overpriced, but you get what you pay for right?
Edit: I would like to add that this was the 200th post on the forums.

Nice 200 posts
You can get a PC from another brand and get 4 times better specifications with it. I am not kidding on that one.

There is a video a tech reviewer did paying hundreds less for a pc with better specs than the mac he was reviewing. I'll find the vid and post it here(03-20-2013 02:41 AM)Sully Wrote:(03-20-2013 02:40 AM)Plural Wrote:(03-20-2013 02:24 AM)Sully Wrote: I'm going to have to go with Mac since apple has the best laptops and computers.
