Well imma be transferring schools next fall. And i thought it would be good to buy a mac, the question is I Dont know which one.
Right now I have an insignia desktop and a dell laptop. And I wanna switch over to MAC. The macbook pro is 1,999 and the Mac is 1,499 -those are the prices because those would be the ones i would get. i dunno which one i should get, its hard. I mean i could take my macbook pro anywhere and i could just go to my school with that and that would be all i needed. Or i could buy a mac now and then maybe buy a macbook pro later, depending on the situation. keep in mind i am paying for this by myself. no parent help haha. Soo many decisions. |

Because Apple is constantly tweaking their hardware and forcing you to upgrade; otherwise, you won't be able to do a lot of things if you don't have a current version of their hardware. PC is easier, but PCs also get a lot of spyware, and shit like this whereas Macs don't.
My boyfriend is a die-hard PC user. He thinks Macs are the devil because they are hard to repair and a lot of things are not compatible with Macs. Anyway, of course it's all up to you. Because you're into graphics and web design, I would opt to buy the MacBook Pro. This is a no-brainer. If you buy the regular Mac, it will probably not be up to par for you in your school work. |
