Microsoft is getting crushed?

Question

correct me if i am wrong Microsoft was the best but know apple is crushing windows when i look at apples accomplishments these last five years and then i look at windows ,i think man windows is pathetic

i think after 10 to 15 years Microsoft will be broke , in my bros university almost all students have mac i rarely see windows any where ,if i see windows i only see the ones made a few years back ,i bought an imac and its much more fun and easer to use than windows, i think if windows doesn't release a descent release windows will end, since vista sucks , i mean come on 5 different version and it needs 2 GB RAM to run smoothly while mac only 512MB and ultimate edition in vista requires 40GB!!!! to work smoothly i mean come on people say mac is more expensive when you buy a PC think how much money you pay to upgrade it graphics card and processors it ends up twice as much as mac, windows will shut down if it keeps this up any one agree

Answer 1

I have not seen any macs at the schools I go to. Any at all. The only person I know who has one is my brother, and I think its a good piece of equipment, but for the entry price of a mac you can get a maxed out lenovo T400, which easily can take on even the macbook pro in every single way.

I actually have Vista and I love it. It is obviously faster, seeing that it actually loads things into you ram instead of leaving it empty. The whole purpose of ram is fast access to stuff so you dont need a page file.

Oh, and you dont need 2gb, I have 2gb and I have never once broken 1gb unless Im gaming, and I have never broken 2gb doing that.  

Answer 2

If you're correct, why did Apple totally redo its hardware philosophy in order to make its computers able to run Windows?  (I personally think that, within a few years, we'll all be running Linux - we'll just have a choice of Gnome, KDE, Mac or Windows desktops.  Mac's already there, and who knows what the Redmond gnomes have in store for the next + 1 system?)

Answer 3

well microsoft failed when releasing vista they realized it because they will release a new operating system in 2009-2010

Answer 4

Not true. I go to the local library everyday and Macs are out numbered 10 to 1.

You're wrong. Sorry.

And BTW, almost all offices use PC's. And you need word to send documents.

Answer 5

According to the site I'm sourcing, there are a lot more Vista sales then any of the Mac sales. Granted, there is an increase in sales for the new Mac OS, but the increase for Vista is even greater.

I'd also like to mention that this question is a really crappy troll...

Vista runs 5 different versions because each has a specific function. There is a ONE gb requirement, while 2 or more is much more preferable because Vista uses a sort of pre-caching for the more common programs that the user uses. The space required to install Vista is only 15gb.

If you get a computer with comparable hardware features to a mac then the price will surely (and has been shown to be) cheaper than its mac competitor...

Please stop acting like you're so much better than everyone else and just let people do what they want. If I like using Windows, I will use Windows, if you like using Mac, then keep doing that, but PLEASE stop trying to change everyone else just cause you think you're superior to everybody else.

Answer 6

You are wrong about microsoft. They reason why colleges use apples is because they are way better for processing graphics. But, as far as apple out beating microsoft or microsoft going broke that is highly unlikely because microsoft secures rights to much more then windows. Plus more games are compatable with windows then osx. Second there is way more software compatable with windows then osx. Custom pcs use either windows or linux. Microsoft owns the whole office suite. Now microsoft is battling adobe over their design suite. In fact silverlight is way better then flash. The reason apple stock increase over the years is solely because of the iphone and ipod series.
