Apple is wrong
There have been countless bulls and heavy bashing from the Apple side, who coincidentally sucks at market share. High priced products? Of course, they need money to support the collapsing building. Why all the hate from Apple? Simple, it will gain you controversy which will give you popularity, it’s one big ad.
4. 114,000 Viruses? Not on a Mac.
Mac OS X was designed with security in mind. Windows just wasn’t built to bear the onslaught of attacks it suffers every day. A Mac offers a built-in firewall, doesn’t advertise its existence on the Net, and isn’t compromised within an hour of being turned on.
Excuse me? No, it wasn’t close to being built with security in mind. For the record, Windows XP has a built in firewall too. You really wanna know why there aren’t much viruses for Macs? Easy..
Viruses are made with mass scale damage or interruption in mind, it’s not worth the time and research for virus writers when the target audience is rather small. Windows is mainly affected because EVERYONE uses Windows.
There are numerous different reasons about Macs and viruses, but that is the most obvious one.
5. Next year’s OS today.
Since Mac OS X engineers aren’t busy damming a flood of viruses, they have the time to think up amazing new technology. Like Dashboard widgets, mini-applications offering a world of capabilities just a keystroke away. Or a built-in RSS news reader.
Interesting? Maybe. Next year’s OS? Nope. Stupid? YES.
Really, they have hit ROCK BOTTOM. Considered to be a software giant of their own, Apple is peculiarly petty for including that. What much do you have to brag about Dashboard widgets? It’s really NOTHING new but mini programs running on your desktop, they are no different from the real programs that can run dedicatively. Wow Apple, a built-in RSS news reader.. BIG DEAL.
I won’t start on the other things listed, because it’s just Apple trying to squeeze even the smallest of their limited advantage to PCs and Windows.
Try harder Apple.
