hi,
i dont agree on what you say, a PC does go for 8 houres - some - but in long term - first couple of months - it will go to 4-3 houres and after 6 months its 1.5, for example, point is, Macbook lasts longer in any way.
thank you
Just so that you're not confused, a PCs battery doesn't just last for a few months before the battery life starts to die. That's bull.
Secondly, Macs don't necessarily last longer than PCs. I was a researcher at a university, and now I work a hospital. Both places have LOTS of PCs that are 6-10 years old. I scan radiographic films using a film scanner attached to a 10 year old Dell that included Windows ME. It's around a decade old. I have also used old Macs.
People always have a story of a G3 PowerMac they owned for 10 years, while their PC lasted for 2 years. Sorry, but for every one of those stories, there are stories of 7 year old T-series IBM Thinkpad laptops that are still working just fine.
Also, remember that Macs use essentially the same hardware as everyone else, and no amount of Apple engineering can make their components last longer. Everyone who has a really old Mac that still works owns a Mac that does NOT use Intel. When Apple switched from Motorola and IBM to Intel, their hardware became as reliable as everyone elses. If you spend over $6000 HKD on any laptop in HK, I'm sure that they will last just as long as a Mac. Again, the hardware is the same.
I love Macs, but don't buy a Mac for bull**** reasons, and don't trust all Mac users. Everyone wants you to buy one, but we should also hope that you are happy with a Mac.
fanboy, but having used PCs for over 10 years before converting to Mac, there are reasons why I will never go back.
