Yup, you can also run windows on a mac. Most document files will open in the mac equivalent of their software and the full Microsoft office suite is available for mac.

Failing that, install windows under 'bootcamp' or using virtualisation software like vmware fusion or parallels. No idea why you'd want to run windows programmes on a mac though - a bit like trying to play an 8 track on a blu-ray machine.

What are the names of the editing programs YouTubers use?

There are various programs that the YouTubers use. The most basic and amateur programs being iMovie (MAC) and Movie Maker (PC) However, the more popular and prestigious YouTube users probably use more professional software. Sony Vegas Pro (PC), Adobe Production Premium (PC/MAC), Adobe Premiere Pro (PC/MAC), Final Cut Pro (MAC), and Avid Media Composeer (PC/MAC) are all very popular and thorough editing programs. These programs are all very high end, and cost between $700 and $2500 for the full program. I use Final Cut Studio Express, which is only about $300, and it works wonderfully for the videos I edit. Unless you're planning on doing some hardcore video editing with incredible special effects, stick to an "express" version of the editing program. Before I had FCE, I used Movie Maker and was able to produce some nice looking videos, just as a reference.


Which one is better for professionals MAC or PC?

well, it depends on what you are doing. usually, most animation and software developing programs are for PC. most professionals use PC however because they are cheap, and work. but... i would recommend looking for if the things you will be doing are available on PC or mac. otherwise, i would recommend mac because they can be nerdy as a PC, and at the same time, easy enough for a 5 year old to use. best of luck, he anonomus person who wrote this.
