So, I have an iPhone, which I like, but we use Windows and Linux computers in our household. I’d never seen a Mac boot up until the other day after a friend gave me their old Mac Mini. I was excited to check it out, got it all set up and logged in – but it really just seemed like a giant iPhone regarding what it did and could do (meaning, I would just stick with Windows and Linux for our computing needs, rather than swap over to the Mac). I was disappointed.
What am I missing?
Having used all three, I’d say there isn’t much between them really and it’s personal preference. I’m a software engineer and for that Linux is my first choice. For personal use I have a MacBook. I don’t see too many advantages of having it over the others, except for the convenience of using the same iCloud account on my phone and laptop. So I get easy access to texts, calendar events, reminders and whatever else it allows.
