The beginning of this series is Drama Tech 101.

Described as the biggest debate of our era…..should you chose a Mac or a PC? Well, first of all, why should you choose?

PC – stands for Personal Computer and is produced by such companies as Hewlett Packard, Sony, Toshiba, Dell and Gateway for starters. It runs the Windows as its operating system. That is the key.

Mac – is an Apple computer that runs the Tiger OS X – thus the iMac, connectible with the various “i”s such as iPod, iMovie, iTunes, etc… Basically the “ILife” as it is called.

The generic tag line is that Mac’s are for anyone pursuing something involved with arts, while PC’s are for business and basic computing. I am not sure I agree with that yet….

The advantage of a Mac is

  • Easy interface, connectibility,

  • Creatively friendly

  • Less virus issues

The advantage of a PC is:

  • Price

  • Availability of programs

  • excellent with spreadsheets, word processing, etc… for other church work.

It is up to you which one you pick, but I have made my choice: PC. I think it is cheaper to operate and has a larger selection of programs to choose from.

Well, there is my two cents on this issue and by no means is it a thorough expository on the subject….just points of view from my experience…
