So I came to Apple! I write here is not about technology, the more competent to make, but how much computer you really need? Since I've been dying to know what the difference between OS X and Windows is, and I do not like W8, I bought this Mac mini and an I-Phone 4S. I thought the functions of the I-Phone in conjunction with a Mac to be able to make better use of what actually works this way. I particularly liked that after some updates you can work with the Mac mini the same while you still has to buy programs in Windows. I am a simple user of the photos, videos and music sometimes processes and stores. Otherwise, surfing the Internet, writing e-mail and letters and, therefore, enough for me these ordinary mini. (I have checked on some PC's how much memory is really used. And expand with an external drive as usual.) My old HP printers began its work with an update immediately. The Sony Bluetooth mouse and keyboard and the external DVD drive (only infected) (In Windows, the installation of a lot more complicated. Was) function as well. (Spare me the new purchase) Only the @ is now at L. The Full HD 25 "HP delivers excellent images. The size of these snack box is fascinating and especially the thing is very quiet. Only the start takes a little longer, could with an SSD will certainly shortened, but if I only go to sleep the same as Windows, so I'll be right back in the program and at the lowest energy consumption. That is the whole point, because if I am at home then the device is turned on and on reception and silent and power efficient. Any Windows PC makes you clear that he has a fan and so far none was inaudible. The price is good, a Windows PC will cost a similar amount. For my general homework I find to have made the right decision and I am very happy with it. Goods in Windows so many unnecessary programs on the computer, so I have only what you really need and which I supplemented with Photoshop Lightroom. The introduction to OS X was not difficult, though I only knew Windows. (With all the Office programs I have used only the basic functions, the rest I have only paid not used. In Windows XP there was still Works that covered the basic needs, but since Vista Windows is a company computer or for specialists (players) and why you buy something that you do not need?) More I do not write because it is supposed to be only one food for thought for the next decision.
