One major discrepancy that made me go back to Windows is the lack of gaming.
The second demerit is their false advertising that Apple computers are not PCs.
A few years later, I realized the smugness of Apple consumers. (Smug - pompous, overweening, egotistic, conceited, complacent fanboys of Apple). Notice: intelligent and humble are not included in the definition.
Based on experience, I honestly think that Apple computers do not meet or exceed my expectations.
Reasons:
1. It constantly freezes.
2. It was difficult to find newly installed applications.
3. You can't install windows-based applications.
4. Too many fancy icons to distract you from accomplishing your goal.
5. Browsing in Safari was like grinding my teeth because it was slow.
6. Restrictive architecture: Every product is a clone and may not be fully customized.
7. I can afford to buy them, but does not have enough bang for my buck.
Therefore, Apple computers are not as high-end as they say. Apple can box a turd and sell it for $1000.
For those of you who might be offended by this blog, wake up and realize that you look like douche bags with your iBook or iMac.
