Not really. For a person who's never used a computer before, I think Macs are easier to learn because in general they are better designed. If you are already familiar with one type of computer then you will probably find it easier to keep using the same old thing than to learn something new, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't try.

Why are Macs criticized How do Macs counter the criticism?

Typically, Apple Macintosh computers are criticized only because of incompatibility with the standard Windows software. Other criticisms usually include Macs are stupid, gay, etc.. Mac's counter the incompatibility criticism with Bootcamp, a utility included on all new Macs that allows users to dual boot into windows. Other programs, such as VMware and Parallels allow you to run Windows within Mac OS X. Also, more and more programs are being ported to the Mac, allowing more seamless integration.

What is a mac please list all items?

Mac is short for "Macintosh", which is the Operating system that Apple computers run on. Apple products that run the Mac operating system include: Mac Pro, iMac, Powermac, Mac mini, Macbook air, and macbook pro. To clear some confusion, not all Apple products are macs. iPads, iPods, and iPhones are iOS devices, not macs. Popular beliefs say that macs are not vulnerable to viruses, but they are, just like other Operating systems, but they're still not as vulnerable as windows. Macs are expensive because of the high quality operating system and high quality software Apple makes, unlike Windows computers, no one else is licensed to sell the Mac Operating system, thus it makes the computer's demand price more expensive because of the exclusivity.


What are some of the benefits an Apple Mac has that PCs do not?

The main difference between Macs and PCs is the operating system. The Mac OS is easy to use and efficient. Windows doesn't have the simplicity and is more prone to viruses.
