one (major) difference between mac and windows desktops is the file system running underneath the operating systems.\n\nwindows uses the NTFS (or *occasionally* fat32) filesystem:\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ntfs\n\nand mac computers use the HFS filesystem:\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hierarchical_File_System\n\nread the above and get a vague understanding about the difference then repeat it - it's a bit more in-depth than 'apple has an apple and windows has a start button' - you'll sound like a professional lmao

We had an old legacy windows programs. Few Mac client had recently needed to use. So i gave them a solution as Mac OS 10X with RDC. It worked well.

There isn't. Mac OSX is entirely different from Windows and there is no chance the download would work on Windows. Plus those programs are mac exclusives so there's no PC Windows version either.

The latests. Definately not a mac pc, as that is for graphics and image processing. Use XP, it is the mainstream OS today.

get stardock\nmakes an active desktop and you can add all kinds of stuff to the desktop, but when you go on the internet it will get covered, thats why there is one located on the taskbar.

Tiger is very cool  Unfortuately, a computer designed for Windows will not recognize the Mac OS.   Sorry.  \n\nThe opposite is not true, however.  You can easily install Windows on any of the new Mac computers, through an included program on the Mac called Boot Camp.  But while Macs will run both Mac OS and Windows, Windows boxes will not run the Mac OS.  \n\nGood luck!!

Download it in Windows format. MAC and Windows are not interchangeable so the only way around this is to go back and download it in the right format. If you paid for it, you will need to contact the people you bought it from and explain the problem and pray that they are sympathetic!

So many answers and so much bad info. I use both on a daily basis. Neither is a piece of junk or a wrong choice just because of what it is.\n\nFirst, I'll explain the bad info and then give you some straight dope:\n\n"Macs for one there's no right click" -- hold the Command key when you click, same. How often do you right-click? Most people, about twice an hour. No big deal.\n"...confusing to go from a PC tool bar where it seems so simple..." -- I use both Windows and Mac, no problem with the toolbar. It's almost the same as on Windows.\n"... costs $300 or more for software, you'll find almost no shareware or freeware..." -- I haven't found any $300 or more programs except the ones that cost $300 for Windows also, such as Photoshop and Quark XPress. Tons of Mac freeware /shareware. I have dozens of them. Try versiontracker.com\n"You have to buy all your motherboard and internals from Mac franchised dealers there is no OPEN SOURCE like on a PC" -- not true. You can buy NVidia, ATI, Beldon, etc. at almost any large computer store such as Comp USA, Fry's, etc. The motherboard is not made by third-party companies but do you plan to change the motherboard in your laptop? Come on, guys!\n"Do NOT, however, expect easy data exchange UNLESS you buy Mac/PC compatible programs." --I exchange Excel, Word, JPEG, HTML files, no problem. Microsoft made some Word and Excel bottle-necks for Mac software ten years ago but now they have figured it out.\n"pictures made with the "free" software that came with his Mac. Totally unreadable in a PC" -- Huh? I make JPEG and PDF files on my Mac using Preview and screen capture and send them by email to my brother's Windows box, no problem. Someone has a lame Windows setup if they can't read standard JPEG and PDF files.\n"...he has to compress them using a Mac compression tool that does not work well with Win Zip" -- I don't have to compress my files at all. If I do, I can unzip them fine on my Windows box and so can my friends.\n"You will not find familiar, easy to use tools.  ...Fetch for FTP" -- If you don't want to see something unfamiliar, stick with Windows. And vice versa for Mac users, don't look at Windows, it's unfamiliar. About FTP, just use web-based such as www.01ftp.com\n"if you do picture work you may HAVE to buy Adobe at $600 if you want to exchanged images with PC users, because we can't deciper their PCT images" -- Not true, get GraphicConverter or QuickImageCM for free and don't save in PICT format unless you plan to publish or print it from your Mac.\n"Too many "Mac" proprietary formats to deal with..." -- Maybe your Mac using friends don't know what formats are good for Windows. They can save files in almost any format that other platforms need. Not true for Windows, but never mind. They needn't use the TWO OR THREE Mac proprietary formats.\n"...only good exchange is Apple Quicktime" -- No, Macs can use almost any video format. Microsoft has stopped making Internet browser plugins for Macs since they got mad at Apple for offering Safari to replace Internet Explorer so their PROPRIETARY WMV format needs a third-party plugin.\n"...not for casual computing, game playing or even Internet browsing, since many of the sites are Linux or NT based" -- Huh? Since when does the type of server affect your browsing ability? Many web sites use Mac servers and that doesn't keep Windows boxes from browsing. No sense here.\n"You CAN expect to have problems seeing some sites" -- older versions of Safari were totally wacky but with newest version or Firefox, this is not an issue.\n"I never got the hang of macs. they are way too complicated to operate." --  My friend's 8 year old learned to use my Mac in about ten minutes. You just have to relax and accept new ideas.\n".
