Mac OSX vs Windows OS: Which one?

If you have to choose, either Windows Operating System computer or Mac (OSX) Operating System computer, which one will you choose? This is not a new issue in our today society, as a matter of fact; it was already being discussed for centuries.  Well for me, the answer varies on individuals. Some might look at a different lens. Some will judge by the history of the operating system, some will make evaluation on price and lots of other reasons, it will never ends.

For me, the good way to look at these available choices is to reflect our main routine usage on this technology. This also reflects directly on our professions. It varies. For government office or workplace, Windows Operating System (OS) is already equipped and synonym with our daily work. From preparing crucial documents to file management. Thus, it is a consumer friendly OS, from workplace to our social lifestyle.

What about Mac OSX? Well, lots of professional producers, artists and other professional professions tend to use Mac OSX rather than Windows OS. There are many reasons that are known and unknown, but some of the reasons have been floating around in our society.

The first reason is the computer viruses. This reason was already popular since the 90’s for windows OS.  Why viruses are synonym for windows OS? This is because the windows OS still remains as the most used operating systems till today, almost everywhere.  There is a huge speculation about computer viruses with anti-virus software company. Rumors been discussed that the anti-virus company creates the computer virus and prepares the solutions at the same time for profit making. It is unofficial and yet to be known whether it is a fact or not.

Then, does the situation makes Mac OSX not affected by computer viruses? The answer for this: No! Once a consumer goes online, there is thousands of spam and viruses based on OS. Note that windows OS viruses would not affect Mac OSX, because of the system difference. Mac OSX still can be exposed to computer viruses. On the other hand, on mid 2012, since Mac OSX does not equipped with PowerPC, young and middle age society would choose Windows OS for gaming.

Gaming industries are still built for windows OS to this day, which leaving Mac OSX behind for gaming. This is because, hardware for desktop computers are replaceable and can be modified, this will give advantage for gamers to equipped their desktop computers with the latest technology as to date. While Mac OSX computer are not compatible to changes and not built for customizations on certain major parts.

What about software? This is where the professional professions must be taken into account. Most of professional or tools are built in the Mac OSX, like Logic Pro X software for music producers, Final Cut Pro software for Movie Directors, Adobe software for Graphic Designers and many more.

These are only some of the reasons being mentioned as there are many more. But, as a smart consumer, view them on your profession and lifestyle. For additional example, Web-Developer tend to choose u-Buntu or Linux operating system as it is not complicated as other OS and it is more stable for their work platform. If your mind is full of inquiries and doubts upon certain matters on operating system, do not hesitate to go to the nearest computer store to seek answers and advice. Your research will lead you to the answer that you are looking for.
