Hello!
I am a pc user looking to switch over to a mac. I have a few reasons for wanting to switch, the price of xp pro, the activation process and always having to be super cautious because of virii and spyware. I have a few questions to ask, as i dont know a lot about macs and so i thought i would ask where there are some mac gurus.
As far as i am aware macs dont have a registry, but i dont exactly know how the process of installatiion works and what is done when programs are installed. Can someone explain this to me?
I am looking at the powermacs but they seem (from what i have read) to be limited in terms of the hard drives you can use and the amount of storage. Is there any way around this? Can you add extra drives inside?
In general, without wanting to turn this post into a contest, what are the benefits of using mac over windows? I would like some input really from people who have used both. Input from people who have used one or the other is great too, as i would like to get a rounded picture to help towards making my decision. I hope i fit in here!
