Question

b\c everyone is saying it

Answer 1

Answer 2

its okay,

Mac is a computer made by Apple, the same company that makes iPods and iPhones.

M.A.C is a brand of makeup sold in Nordstrom, Saks, and M.A.C stores. (:

Answer 3

As far as I know, Mac is a type of computer. What most people haven't said is that "MAC" is short for Macintosh. To me, it seems like most people are forgeting this. MAC is a part company (or something) that made the iPod, and it's from apple. MAC computers used to be apple and not mac.

If you want to know some history of it, please procede. If not, I hope you found your answer, and with all regards, bye.

So you decided to read further.

Mac and Dell, two computer companys, I believe compete against each other to see who can make the best type of computer. I believe Dell is winning, since is has more users. Due to that fact, Mac has less viruses. So Mac might be better in that way. It usually is faster also.

The earliest Mac I have seen and used was made technicaly for childish games, known as apple. Though they have improved, along with their main company, Apple, they are not the best, in terms of competiton, depending on what you like more.

Dell seems to have been for buisness matters, mostlikely, and is quite the opposite of Mac.

So now you know. Now you know something about computers, and Mac. Hope you are highly satisfied.

Macaroni and Cheese :]

Answer 5

Mac is short for Macintosh, which is a line of advanced computers made by Apple, Inc (which also makes the iPod, which you're probably familiar with). The computers are a bit more expensive then the usual Windows PCs but they get no viruses, are faster, crash much less often and are overall better.

Go to Apple.com and select the Mac tab at the top.

Answer 6

Apple Macintosh computers. The don't use Windows, they use their own software and are better in some ways than Windows computers.

Answer 7

It's macaroni.  That stuff is good!  T-Pain and I love macaroni and cheese.  It's my favorite food and one time, I read that it is his favorite food!  Wow, no wonder I like it so much.  I love T-Pain.  I love macaroni and cheese.  I love anything else T-Pain loves.  I am such a T-Pain lover.  

Answer 8

Depends on how it's phrased.

Could be MAC the make-up store, Mac the computer.

Or the terminology Mac, as in a person who thinks they are all that. They think they are the Mac.

Could also be a pimp, as in a Mac Daddy or the boss man.

As I said depends on Phraseology, and also it depends on what you are talking about.

Answer 13

A computer made by the company Apple (which also makes the iPod/iPhone) that comes in the color white. Its outer appearance is pretty sleek, but in my opinion its ability to function lacks. It comes with a 1 click mouse (which you can replace though). It comes with Mac OS X and which unlike windows cannot open multiple windows xD. But the computer is most useful to those who like listening to music or watching movies or looking at pix, since those are the areas at which the mac excels at
