Why Buy a Macintosh?
Many people have asked this question, and the most significant answer is simply because a Macintosh will not give you anywhere as much grief as a DOS box. Everything about a Macintosh is easier to use than Windows, even Windows 95. After all, as much as Microsoft tries to hide it with Windows 95, they’re still DOS boxes. You still have to edit .INI files and putting a new video card in will still not work right, despite the claims of plug and play. The proof is in the pudding though. Here’s my 2 year old daughter Jordan booting her Macintosh. She’s already inserted the Lion King CD, although knowing her, she’ll tire of it as soon as she launches it and then she’ll put in a new one. Nothing is as fickle as a two year old. The significant part of this is that she can do it! In fact, she’s already better than a lot of adults I know, although she hasn’t had to save any files yet. That’s always the first stumbling point for any Macintosh user. Then it’s that RAM versus hard disk issue. Well
