Mac vs PC/ PC vs MAC

Well a lot has been said about this topic and I thought it was time I put in a little of what I thought to see if we can at least come to a common understanding or at least get the truth about all this. (The truth is out there…x files) When I first heard of a Mac, well I guess I was in late primary school, I had seen it in the movie blank cheque but that doesn’t really count. I have been using PC’s most of my life and frankly, I don’t see a good reason for getting a Mac any time soon, unless that is they start making really good products that are really impressive not just in the design and make but also in the performance sector(that sounds a little not true now maybe…read on). What Apple knows to do best is market their products, when it comes to marketing strategies, well we all have to give it to the late Steve Jobs for doing such a good job. The design team also does an impressive job, we all know for sure that an apple computer is one of those cool looking gadgets to have around

As most of you are aware bby now, well windows 8 build 8102 developers build has been released for like 4 weeks now.

This was quite a challenge to me and honestly I didn’t know what to do, I had to pick my brains a little harder in order to come up with the solution to this problem. I know some of you may be asking what is this .net thingy???well in short layman terms what I can say about this framework is that it is a huge library that incorporates most of the programing languages out there and runs primarily in the windows environment. Most of the programs out there are probably compiled to run smoothly in the 3.5

Many are anticipating the arrival of Windows 8, the next installment from microsoft, to say i am really waiting for this day would be an understatement., but do many of us really understand what the rolling out of windows 8 means? First of all, there was the rumor abut windows 8 using files in the cloud that one would need an active internet connection before logging into the system so as to elliminate privacy. to say but just a few words, this was only but a rumour not saying this is far fetched as most of the computer games most people are buying nowadays are alaready implementing this idea just to name a few like Monday Night Combat among others that are mostly played online and one needs to always have an active internet connection to play this games not to say broadband speeds and the amount of traffic this creates. the next thing to come out is this issue about SLAT. most people dont know what SLAT is and an alarmingly larger number dont even care about this. well just to sh
