Why do you all like Windows computers so much?

Guy at uni tried showing me his new hp laptop, I just told him I’m a mac user and I don’t speak broke.

I don't, hate them. Mac user for life.
Because a gaming rig destroys mac on every level. Mac systems are for the computer illiterate.

So do you just like the thrill of spending money or what
Windows holds around a 90% global market share as well. Majority of developers are not going to waste their time on such a niche user base.
Mac systems are for foools. Why would you buy that thing when you can't do most of the things you can do in Windows PC?
Or rather, Macs are for those who don’t know how to spend their money wisely :wink:

And yet they do, I have never struggled for software.

Why do you need to spend £1200+ on just a day to day laptop?

I've had 2 Macbooks before, both overheated and broke within 2 years. They're overpriced trash, people just buy them for the branding.

I own a Dell XPS 15 and I can assure you that, its waaaayy expensive than many Macs out there. So yea windows is not cheap and there are premium models available.

And when my friends take their Macs out infront of me, I say I dont speak broke.

How are Macs incompatible with other OS?
Imagine being so full of yourself over money...

Easy target for thieves if you are out and about. Nobody wants to steal a **** £250 laptop when they can have the £1000+ laptop.
Because Windows>Mac :smug:
