So microsoft has put out some rather unsuccessful ads countering apple's ads. The first being a rather non sensicle ad which had jerry sienfeld and bill gates doing not much of anything and just eating churros and stuff.
Now they have a "I'm a PC" ad trying to say that apple is stereotype microsoft users.
They don't really state how it is better than mac or anything. They don't quite understand that apple is stereotyping the OS itself.
Than they have some "windows mojave" ad with people not knowing it vista. Once again. Of course vista looks better. That is not the problem people have with vista. I think mac is the best looking OS around doesn't mean I like it. Those people don't have to deal with the plethora of driver issues that vista has, its instability, or its drain on resources because they just get some souped up computer. Of course vista looks good at first sight. But try to install it on your 3 year old computer and you will have a different opinion.
Keep in mind I'm not an apple fan boy. In fact other than the iPOD i don't really like anything apple has made. They are extremely closed source and extremely overpriced. They don't let their OS be on any hardware but their own and their hardware is usually of horrible value. I could build a Hackintosh for half the price of a mac and it would be a heck of a lot more upgradable and better quality.
Just want to ask what do you guys think about all of this?
I just don't think its so black and white. Both Mac and Windows have their faults. Mac is a better OS but it is closed off and much less used (meaning there is less software for it).
Windows is much more unstable and crashes every five seconds and will freeze up every time you open a program. Not to mention the more you use the more it slows down. But at the same time you can install it on any computer you want and it is more widely used.
Personally I think that microsoft did a decent job on XP and that it isn't too horrible. Vista on the other hand is a complete joke. Just download a nice little skin (black xp) and aero for XP and you have vista without the headaches...
So...what do you think?
PS: Please...no fanboys
