<p>You really can’t compare PCs to Macs. They are two completely different things. Price isn’t comparable at all. Microsoft is a software company and Apple is a hardware company. Of course Macs will cost more. That is where Apple will make its money. Microsoft on the other hand will make its money off of the software they sell you. They make money by having Windows as your OS and the arm and the leg they charge you for Office, Windows, and all their other software.</p>
<p>Macs are much cheaper to maintain than PCs. You don’t have to worry about antivirus software. You can purchase AppleCare for 3 year warranty coverage and not have to worry about repair costs (unless you do damage to the computer yourself). You’ll waste much less time dealing with crashes and failures with a Mac than with a PC. Things just generally go much smoother with a Mac than a PC.</p>
<p>The Macbook Pro is very much worth the money if you aren’t on a tight budget. If you are on a tight budget (Can’t possibly spend more than $1,000) than you would be much better off with a PC. PCs will be cheaper but you should expect to have more problems and spend more money maintaining the computer.</p>
<p>Macbook Pro is a great machine. It looks amazing, runs phenomenally, and is a very luxerous machine. If you have the money it is worth every penny because I guarantee you will be happy with it. I’ve never encountered one person who has been unhappy with their Macbook Pro. To me quality and greater satisfaction is worth the money.</p>
