Any Mac Users out there ??!!
Hello all just a couple of random questions for those of you who might b using an Imac or a Mac Laptop..
Im deciding between the two and i'm just wondering about there performance and upgradability ... Compared to windows laptop do you know of any Minus points or disadvantages ???!!
Other than office 1 or PC 1 does any 1 know of anyother good Mac stores here... ?!?!
mv shabeer has said it..:D
My advice (I am a IT professional). I have used both. If you compare a PC and a Mac of the same price in performance. PC will be unbeatable.
If you just want to say "I have a Mac from Apple" then go for Mac. (Not about the OS, I am talking about the Mac hardware)
If you are keen about performance. Just go for a PC(Desktop/Laptop).
It really drive me crazy when people say their core2duo mac is faster and "smoother" than the corei7 PC. ROFL.
BTW if you compare the Operating systems, Windows 7 and Mac OS Snow Leopard, I would say Mac OS looks better and have lesser stability problems. (You can Install Mac OS on PC with little hacking)
On the other hand 50% of the softwares/Drivers dont support Mac OS.
Recently I bought a assembled PC for my company for 6000 QR only for CPU.
Specs - Gigabyte P67, Core i7 (2600k) 3.4Ghz, 12GB Ram, GTX460 GPU.
What you will get for 9000 QR is an iMac with
Core i3 3.0 Ghz, 4Gb ram, ATI HD 5670 + monitor.
Whatever they argue it's not going to be faster than the above PC
Now you can decide to go with the Apple sh*it or worthy PC.
Landmark Apple Authorize... they have Mac for Qr. 5,450... as per my query sunday evening... i just got no time to try their display... so no idea regading specifications... guest it would be the same as other Mac..

Buying Mac is like buying a Mercedez benz...
You will get all the comfort... but for a bit higher price than it's competitors..
Try Carrefour in Villagio.
Last week I saw two mac-books in the laptop section.
Most probably it would be still there.

If you're looking for a problem, you're probably gonna find one.
@ R7, you can also look at The Royal Plaza Mall. they have a small booth there at the ground floor near Levis.

Thanx joan
@ Landmark Mall just beside the Esprit shop, there's a new Mac stall set-up. They have displayed the new Macbooks but I did not check the price.
Goodluck
I can recommend Macbook Pro & Vista! Perfect design and perfect OS, great performance. Disadvantage will be the weird keyboard but you can map it as you want so you won't miss any important keys..
I really cant decide wht to do.. May b all of u on Ql can chip in and get me a mac book pro tht costs only 12 grand :)
Honey if u like u could gift me 1 too :)
i hav mcbook air... dont know much about its feature....
It all depends on your requirement and purpose of your usage. If you are planning to stick on the some professional media designing or any multimedia designing, video streaming, publishing for magazine or website, etc. it’s better to go for Mac PC; If it’s other way around, don’t waste lot of money. Instead you may look for assembled PC with Platinum Casing and motherboards. Recently I have assembled a PC for my personal business, as I am multimedia designer. All together I spent about QAR 3800/- including monitor. The system is just superb and I am enjoying using it. Chill~~~~~~~J

Well
Mac is always better than windows in performance & stability! The
only issue you might face is the availability of software
nevertheless this issue has been resolved, almost all the software are since
MAC is available with Intel platform! Better go for MAC Notebook, Best of
luck!
i love it..so many fatures and fun..so many accessories too..u can shop mac at Virgin in Villagio. Although i find it very expensive in Doha if you compare the price in Asia. I bought a new one just 2 weeks ago in Jakarta and its 30 Percent cheaper..plus i got few gift too
