[Electronics-talk] MAC vs PC

[Christopher Hallsworth]

I would go for a Mac as I believe this is the way forward for us 
especially if you have iOS devices as well. If not you can buy a PC with 
Windows 7 or 8.1 which are both good versions of Windows however 7 is 
more like XP in terms of its interface. You also have Classic Shell 
which works for both 7 and 8.1. XP doesn't exist in the wild now as 
support ended April of this year.
