Mac Vs. PC Mac PC • Faster Operating system • Less compatible with many types of software • More expensive • Can run any form form of windows with dual boot • Slower Operating system • Compatible with most types of software • Much more cheap • Only runs windows operating systems
Features • Apple released Mac OSX Lion, the latest and greatest OS • Lion has multi touch gestures, to go back a page, switch desktops, and many others • Also has a page that is a lot like the ipad/ipod/iphone home screen, to view all your apps
Software • Mac OSX comes preloaded with all software that everyone can use for there everyday life • IPhoto is something people use to store all their pictures they need • Keynote, Pages, and Numbers are like office but they just throw it in for free rather then annoying trials • Garage Band lets people record music or create music digitally
Dual OS capability • Mac is the only os that allows you to use both windows and mac os • Programs like parallels and boot camp allow your mac to have windows as a second operating system
Multi-touch gestures • The mac track pad on the Macbooks, or the external track pad, and the magic mouse allow you to change desktops, switching between apps, and much more • To do this, using multiple fingers to swipe forward, back, up and down, left right and other directions • Started in osx leopard, but perfected in the new lion.
