I've heard so many people say that Mac is more convenient once you get used to it.
Is there some specific features that make Macs more convenient than Windows?
I used to be a major computer power-user. Now I don't do that as much. I find the difference between Windows 7 & OS X (the last one I used was Lion when it came out) isn't all too important. I do find Windows 7 easier to use and multitask with quickly (workflow is much quicker), but that wouldn't necessarily keep me from purchasing a Mac again.
There happens to be a lot of arguments for or against PC computers (or Macs) that are just really unintelligent. People don't know how to use one or the other, and just make terrible assumptions. Maybe they had a bad experience with a PC at one point, or maybe they had a bad experience with a Mac... big deal!
I had a 2011 Macbook Air that crashed on me once every couple of weeks and had major wifi issues. I didn't chalk that up to "OS X sucks!". My brother had a desktop he bought that crashed and got the BSOD, and I didn't chock that up to Windows sucking. The reason why my Macbook Air had issues I do not know. The reason why my brother's PC crashed was because it was set up in a form-factor desktop & there was terrible airflow, and that was Dell's fault: I fixed that by reassembling the setup in a better case.
The fact of the matter is people blur the lines between hardware, software, and the operating system when, often, they shouldn't be. They identify a problem and give it one overarching diagnosis: "Well, I got a virus, or bluescreen, or this or that, it must be Windows! On to Mac I go!!" The three are related and do matter, but there's often a disconnect between knowledge & assumptions that results in infuriating discussions going on such as in this thread. "I had BSOD's all the time, I got viruses, and now my Mac is perfect!" <-- Good, wonderful, great! It works for you. The nice thing about Apple is that very little research needs to be done, and very little knowledge needs to be had in order to go through the process of getting what you want out of an Apple product (usually, and so long as it's productivity-based and not for games). But maybe you were visiting too many porn sites, clicking on the wrong ads, and running your computer on your lap letting it overheat because you didn't pay attention to where the vents are on that laptop of yours.
PC's require a bit more research and knowledge (brand, make, model, internal hardware for the physical computer, then understanding Windows/etc). I find they suit my needs better software & OS-wise, and budget-wise... Macs, on the other hand, really do fit my needs (the laptops in particular) in terms of build quality (the screen, the touchpad, the metal, the keyboard, etc), and I do enjoy using different OS's sometimes for a change of scenery/pace. I also love the resale value (and ease of finding a buyer) when selling Apple products.
