Mac, PC or something else entirely?

Friday, January 15, 2010 by Marcia Stone

I'm a Mac person. So let me be completely transparent about that right off the bat. But I know plenty of PCers. So I thought I'd just throw this question out into cyberspace. Are you a Mac? Or a PC? Why?

My answer: I've worked in advertising and brand communication since before computers existed. The Mac interface is frankly more fun, more visual and more intuitive and as a creative thinker, I'd rather be looking at it all day than at the other choice. Mac also seems to be the common platform for those like me who work in brand development and marketing creativity so using this platform lets me speak the same language as my colleagues.

What are you and why?

Friday, February 26, 2010 by Ryan Porter:: I'm the same as you Marcia. I've been working in design and advertising so long, that working on a Mac is like second nature to me. (You should have seen me trying to figure out how to load fonts onto a PC the other day. Took almost an hour.) I think for me it's mostly a ease of use issue. I can do in 2 mouse clicks what it would take 5 or 6 on a PC. Everyone has their argument one way or the other, but what it comes down to is, "Which one are you more efficient at using?" After all, time is money, right?
