hello firstly i want to tell you that mac is a operating system and pc is a device on which a operating system is install , that's means the question is that you prefer mac os or other os like windows , so here are many things which distinguish mac from windows the operation of windows is easy for new users easily accessible  and used by majority of peoples and mac operating system is not used by majority of peoples it is used by professional , software engineers etc. and if the question is that what you prefer a laptop or a desktop than surely you will go with a lapotop.

i used PC more than MAC but i  prefer MAC on PC for the below reason : 

   MAC is more save than PC because the original application of MAC is 30 Dollar but PC Windows will cost 200 Dollar which it will make demand for duplicate application 

MAC is Faster than P.C

MAC design application is more better the PC design application

pc all the way for gamers and programmers. mac is good for editing videos and stuff but you will have to shell out a lot of money for those high end macs. pc is modifiable to your budget's extent and software's are abundant. on the other hand if you are only buying a mac thinking it has good security ( free antivirus protection programs in bunches to choose from available on pc

I prefer PC because it is more user friendly and the sharing of data between PC to PC is quite easier compared to mac and PC and also PC is generally affordable compared to mac

It's like the difference between Android and Iphone, this is your choice if you need an easy, practical, useful so the window pc is your choice , MAC is for professions not for daily use, it's more complicated but more safe.

The technical performance between these two systems is different in line between the similarities and the biggest differences. This depends on the product you provide on the other hand, but generally we compare two devices with the same internal features: "processor, hard drive, USB ports, RAM ..." Apple may outperform its low-to-medium-sized computers because the company automatically supports the highest levels of its high-end products, which will give these light computers the ability to work with the highest effort.

When you go to compare with high-performance devices, the rule may be difficult between the two. Macs usually carry the fastest processors on a variety of Windows computers, but it may be different from talking about memory RAM and dealing with hard drives as well as USB sockets.

Although Apple computers may progress on Windows with a simple boot and processing process much faster, high-level graphics processing and processes will beat Windows at an absolute advantage, which may turn a bit to Bill Gates and his products.

For native software support for both parties, Mac offers a range of core applications that deliver most of the services required for each computer. SuperDrive includes laser disks, audio in / out control, FireWire, file management, Thunderbolt, In addition, there are some simple services to control peripherals as Ethernet manager and magnetic power outlet.

Windows offers many similar services but with some enhancements and additions such as a Blu-ray player, a TV channel manager, and some necessary peripherals as an HDMI input, as well as its most important feature is the support of touchscreen computers, which will also make some progress for Windows at the expense of its giant counterpart.

There is another big difference in comparison between Mac and PC at the security level, which includes a lot of viruses and malicious applications, not to mention unwanted intruders.

Since the focus of global computers has been based on Windows systems for many years, the system has caught the eye of the saboteurs more than any other computer system, including Mac. Although both systems are closed source, subversive attacks continue to increase in size with a large variation in the range malignancy and the number of experiments.

Most Windows machines are vulnerable to many malicious applications that account for at least 80% of common user devices. Trojan or Trojans are the biggest of these viruses. Windows users experience persistent deception by those applications that may appear very compelling to download. Such as anti-virus, performance-enhancing applications, some screen-specific customizations and much more, Mac users safely rest away from their hands.

Of course, this does not mean that it is possible to ignore the security factor by Mac users, has recently emerged a set of copies similar to Trojan Trojan for the purpose of the implementation of many operations and theft of information, especially MacGuard application or Mac Protector, which will transform his kingdom into a technical hell, The group of malicious applications to expose your system to many of the software problems to show MacGuard as the best application in your face to eliminate those damned viruses while focusing on the elimination of your data and your privacy, which will enable it to spy on most of your digital files and bank accounts that you deal with N through your computer through the network, which displays those accounts to the dangers of sudden theft.

The reason for the recent outbreaks is the increasing popularity of Mac among the simple users of business, business and university students, drawing attention to a new popular version of the operating system. The more popular it is, the more secure it will be. and relatively less vulnerable to breakthroughs from a neighbor Windows so far.

Freedom to deal with the sources and development

This area may turn the attention of programmers who have always turned to Windows for the support of important software applications that succeeded in overcoming the Mac according to my experience, but what the new Mac aspires to attract the attention of Linux users, which is the most important operating systems open source, Enable core Unix developers to work on their systems and make them closer to Linux programmers than their stubborn competitors.

Many of the development projects in Apple have been driven by the entire Unix developers in terms of design or software, which rely entirely on open sources such as HomeBrew, MacPorts, Fink, which has improved the point of open source dreamed by Windows users and will remain stuck in this dream for a long time also, I think.

The core kernel in the Mac or Kernel system is used as a programming name for some applications such as WebKit and CUPs on the open source mechanism, which builds the entire CSS system on an open source basis. This may open up a huge set of software features to the developers of the operating systems, It will not reach a fully open system as long as Apple's Windows remains on a purely profit-making basis. However, it may be more important for Mac OS developers than Windows to open at least some of the free development entrances unlike Microsoft and its trends.

After following up on these paradoxes, each of these systems is considered competitive. I think that Mac computers may be the best at all, but for simple use or for some applications necessary for business owners that may make their information more secure than other systems. You're looking for great consumption, huge games, or high-graphics graphics applications, Windows support computers may be the choice

Best Pisi

Because it is easier for the user in terms of practical applications

Greetings

from an IT specialist Perspective both have pros and cons

be personally i would choose the NON MAC OS due to the freedom it can provide for me to anything i desire but that of course come with the price of the lower security and lower stability.

on the other hand when i provide technical support for users my dream would be having them with only MAC computers because the MAC built to protect the users from himself by making mistakes via very sophisticated security systems built in the IOS and of course that quality will cost you on the other hand some a bit of your freedom as user.

another thing which give an edge for MAC over PC is the hardware engineering, it's really hard to come by PC customized or retail which has robust and perfectly integrated components which can perform together as what you can witness with MACs.

i think PC is better than MAC. because PC is more easier and convenient to use all you need is just a wifi than you're ready to go...while MAC aside form needing wifi of course you still need to consider so many things...like its connection to other social mediums....because i believe that MAC is only convenient with some selected mediums so you cannot still reach out to all common users.
