PC vs. Mac – The Truth
“Better” is a relative term. So is “best.” It’s rare that I jump into the middle of a PC vs Mac debate (hasn’t it been settled already?!). However, this morning I watched a tweet from @Windows float by. On the other end of that link sits Microsoft’s own “PC vs. Mac” page, and it’s so [...]
