Comments on: Tips for Buying a New Computer http://www.website-development-training.com/buying-computer/ Techniques, Articles, Tips, and Tutorials for Website Development Wed, 04 Feb 2009 00:38:35 -0500 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.4 hourly 1 By: Andreas Belivanakis http://www.website-development-training.com/buying-computer/comment-page-1/#comment-805 Andreas Belivanakis Sat, 09 Jun 2007 21:03:32 +0000 http://www.website-development-training.com/buying-computer/#comment-805 It never ceases to amaze me how in every "Computer Buying Tips" forum post there is at least some bozo who wholeheartedly recommends "building your own computer" and does so while maintaining a straight face! Besides the obvious fact that those comfortable with building their own computer do not need advice on how to buy a new one, these people constitute less then 1 per 10000 potential computer users and practically zero of new ones! What is conspicuously absent, however, is truly useful advice: Buy nothing but a mac! New and experienced users alike can do without the 150,000 viruses, trojans, worm, spyware and associated malware that plague the Windows platform. Mac OS X is a better, more reliable, more consistent OS, and the Apple mac is the ONLY computer that can natively run both Mac OS and Windows as well as the various flavors of Unix! Add to it the mac's superior industrial design and the fact Apple consistently ranks no. 1 in customer satisfaction surveys, and the choice is obvious. There is absolutely no reason to keep buying Windows boxes any more. - Andreas It never ceases to amaze me how in every “Computer Buying Tips” forum post there is at least some bozo who wholeheartedly recommends “building your own computer” and does so while maintaining a straight face!
