What are the differences between Mac OS X and Windows?
The Windows Platform • The Taskbar (bottom) • The Start Menu (bottom) The Mac OS X Platform • The Dock (bottom) • The Finder Menu (top) For people who never worked in a computer, they can be both hard to learn. To a novice user the difference can be striking. For a savvy user, it’s a matter of minutes; looking around and clicking their way around. The real differences are in the programming, they are two completely different computing coding underneath. The processor may (or may not) be different (due to Apple releasing the Intel Macs). It wasn’t always like this, at this moment and time, Mac and Windows can get along fairly well, they are also fairly compatible to one another specially in a network. But back in the 90s, there was still a lawsuit going on from Apple against Microsoft, one that they lost due to their own carelessness. Leaving all of those differences in the past the companies really know more than to fight with one another nowadays.
