Back in the old days, when you used to have a specific room for your ginormous desktop computer, things were almost easier. Yes, dial-up was a pain, but hey, we didn't know anything else. Everyone seemed to have a PC, and as far as I remember, it was only used for two purposes: computer games and Microsoft Paint.

As time has passed, many tech wars have been fought in the name of Apple. Remember iPhone vs. Blackberry? Or remember iPhone vs. Sidekick? Even now we still have Apple and Samsung fighting against each other in the great battle of iPhone vs. Galaxy.

Another great debate has risen since though:

Macs vs. PC's.

Now, I have to say, I'm biased. I had three PC laptops throughout the course of my twenty years of living. After about a year, each one of them got very, very slow. I tried the virus softwares that cost almost as much as the computer, I deleted everything but the Internet, and all those annoying toolbars were systematically taken down.

Nothing ever changed. The computer was as slow as always.

Then came the worst part: they crashed.

Okay, not all three crashed, but two out of the three did. I know, I know, I've heard it all before. It was the websites you went on, it was something you clicked on, it was all your fault.

Blah, blah, blah.

After a ton of blue screens, and the final death of my PC laptop, I decided it was time to do the ultimate sacrifice—I would get an Apple Macintosh.

Now, I'll admit it. The price is crazy. I mean, shelling out a ton of money on a laptop seems silly, especially for a college student with a next-to-nothing budget. I mean, even the student discount, while it made a bit of a difference, didn't have a huge impact on the final price.

Then came the whole, there's no copy-paste or right-clicking problems. I mean, I've been a PC girl my whole life, so it was a huge adjustment. It also took a lot of Googling and a whole lot of guessing.

To top it off, there's no backspace button, only a delete one, which I refused to use for a good three months because I had this fear that it would actually delete everything I had just done. Don't even get me started on the fact that you have to buy Microsoft Office separately or download it from your University.

Still, despite all it's drawbacks, two years later, I'm more than pleased at my decision to switch over.

First, my Mac hasn't crashed and hasn't slowed down, like at all, which is insane when compared to the other laptops I had. Also, it helps that the Genius Bar is always available when I do encounter a problem that far exceeds my technical prowess.

Alright, obviously it's not the technical review you were hoping for. It's just my opinion on things, and I say, I've been changed. Apple Macs have changed my life, and they actually are worth it in the long run.
