Windows and Mac are Totally Different Systems So what's going on here? Is that actually true? And if so, why? We turned to devout PC user, Michael Bonebright, for his perspective on this issue.

But where does this assumption come from? One argument is that, yes, of course, if you're comparing a Mac to all other Windows machines, regardless of the configuration and build quality, you'll get the sense that Macs last longer because they're naturally built better than a $300 machine.īut many still hold that even when comparing two like systems, in terms of processor, storage, design, etc., you'll still encounter an experience in which the Mac seems to last longer than the Windows laptop. In those discussions, a frequent sentiment was expressed: Mac laptops are pricier, but they last longer. Essentially, it became an argument about the pros and cons of Windows vs. The comment section on that feature then lit up with opinions from readers on which laptops are better. Recently when we published an article about the new Apple MacBook, we suggested that readers might want to instead consider a comparably-equipped Windows machine.
