What are the advantages of the Apple system?

What are the advantages of the Apple system? Here are some rumors you often hear about Apple and the truth I know:

1. Apple's operating system OSX is more stable than windows.

If it is compared with the old operating systems such as windows 3. 1 and windows95/98/ME, I admit that OSX is more stable, but if it is compared with windows XP and windows vista at the same time, the stability of the two companies is actually similar. After I started using XP, I only met Microsoft's notorious blue screen of death once in so many years (OSX crashed occasionally, and my face was gray when I died). It has been more than six years since Microsoft introduced windows XP, and it runs stably, but many Apple fans will automatically think of "instability" when they mention windows. In fact, their physiological reaction without thinking is much more stable than OS X.

2. In graphic design, audio and video production, publishing and other fields, Mac is still the best choice.

In the field of publishing and audio production, Apple may still have advantages (even if it does, it is largely caused by traditional industry habits and the number of software). In the field of video editing and graphic design, Apple has long lost its so-called advantages (if not already at a disadvantage), which has been confirmed by a large number of evaluations and analysis by various professional magazines. However, the tradition in the professional field is often very conservative and self-righteous and difficult to change. I teach graphic design in American universities. When I was teaching at the University of Tennessee, there were about 50% apples and 50% PCs. Teachers and students choose machines according to their own habits. Later, when he transferred to a university in California to teach, he found that the design teachers and students in the local school were equipped with Macs. His colleagues and students were very surprised when they found out that he used IBM notebooks for design. Some people don't even know that PCs can run PhotoShop, although adobe has begun to gradually reduce software development on Macs.

Apple computers are more expensive than personal computers.

There is something wrong with this expression, because the prices of different brands of PCs with the same configuration vary greatly. So to be precise, (1) is an incompatible closed system, and Apple has not given us the opportunity to choose cheap "Dell Mac" and "Shenzhou Mac" (the same is true for accessories selection), so we can have more choices when buying a PC. (2) As a brand computer, whether it is a desktop or a notebook, Apple's price is actually not more expensive than IBM or Sony, the first-line manufacturers of the underworld.

4. Apple computers are more "user-friendly"

This is the most popular legend about apple. The fact is that Apple can indeed make innovative designs with great humanity, but it is also very good at making the most inhuman low-level mistakes. Simply put, Apple is a rotten cow X company that doesn't care much about users' feelings. Sometimes, I think Apple's "being different" means thinking like a psychopath. Thinking about mental illness means thinking from another angle. Some people make low-level mistakes that even the most retarded enterprises can't make, but Apple brazenly makes "Apple surprises you". In addition to the one-button mouse and the iMac without independent switch of the display I mentioned earlier, there are several typical examples:

(1) Apple's window can only be zoomed with the mouse in the lower right corner of the window (almost all graphical interface operating systems can do the same operation at the four corners and corners of the window, and you should know which design is more user-friendly). If you want to manually resize a window on the right side of the desktop to the required size, you must first move the window to the upper left corner of the desktop and then operate it in the lower right corner of the window.

(2) Generally speaking, the DVD player software on the computer is more convenient to use than the DVD player of household appliances. One feature is that you can use the mouse to quickly locate what you want to see on the playback progress bar, while Apple's own dvd playback software does not have a progress bar. This is the only dvd player software that I have seen on the computer so far without playing the progress bar.

(3) The shell of this generation of iMac (from the original iMac G5 to the current metal iMac), whether it is translucent plastic or matt aluminum, is characterized by the angular frame of the fuselage, which is a kind of "inhuman" sharpness. Although it can't be used to cut frozen ribs, at least it can be used as a paper cutter. If you don't believe me, you can go to the Apple Store and touch it yourself. Remember not to push too hard, or you can bring a band-aid.

Mac is like a BMW in a computer.

This sentence is often said by Jobs and his followers. If this refers to the shell of the Mac, I admit that the Mac is a "BMW", but if this refers to the performance of the Mac ... Uncle, when have you ever seen a BMW run as fast as Li Xia?

6. Use apples to express your personality and taste.

X.

Or chicken X.

Let's talk about the advantages of the Apple system first, in case someone doesn't understand why I bought an apple. The following are my favorites:

1.Mac can install the whole operating system on the external hard disk with 1394 interface, and choose to use this external hard disk to start and run the computer.

2. According to the concept on PC, OSX is almost full of "portable applications". The so-called "installation" means dragging the software (usually a package that looks like a single file) directly to the application folder, and the so-called "uninstall" means dragging it from the application folder to the trash can. This advantage of OSX is one of the main reasons why Apple users despise windows.

3. The file search function "spotlight" and window switching function "exposé" of 3.OS X are cool and practical. Although the desktop search function of google desk and vista, which need to be installed separately under XP, can also achieve similar functions to spotlight, the experience is still slightly inferior.

4. It will take some time for Windows users to completely switch to Apple's operating system, especially if you are a long-term user and are proficient in operating Windows, but for novices who rarely touch computers, OSX seems to be easier to get started (at least in a few examples I have observed). So if you buy an Apple computer instead of a PC for your wife who is not good at using computers, the possibility that she will disturb you for various usage problems while you are reading will be greatly reduced.

There are basically no viruses and Trojans on the Mac, and Jobs and his followers always boast that it is technologically advanced. The reality is that there are too few Mac users, and you can't infect several machines even if you try to write a virus. The account of the virus author and hacker is still very clear. Every time Apple boasted about security, it was so evil that someone came out to shut Apple up (the same problem always happened to Microsoft). Anyway, if you are fed up with the endless stream of viruses on windows, Apple will never let you down. Those who feel that there is no need to be afraid of viruses because of their steady operation style, don't forget that every time you come back from a business trip, your wife will always poison your computer. Some teachers with deep pockets may say, in that case, I'll buy another PC for my wife to use alone and tell her not to touch my computer. If you really think so, please refer to the last sentence of Article 4 above.

We can also find similar or exactly the same software on the PC. The following are my own common:

1. file manager: This should be done by the operating system itself, but the finder of OSX (equivalent to windows explorer) is quite rough (at least most users who have transferred from PC platform will think so). Later, I had to find a software called Pathfinder to replace the finder, which is equivalent to the total Mandel on the PC. It has perfect functions and is very easy to use. Like windows, the window maximization of Pathfinder is the real maximization (the "maximize" button of OSX is not strictly maximization, but what Apple thinks is "optimal". Users who are used to maximizing windows windows will feel uncomfortable at first, but objectively speaking, it is hard to say which design is better. Perhaps it is a better solution for both Microsoft and Apple to add a fourth button to the window. If you decide to give up your Mac because you can't stand Pathfinder, I suggest you try Pathfinder before making a decision. The bad news is that Pathfinder is not free software.

2. Input method: This was originally one of the biggest obstacles for PC users in China to switch to Apple, but the awesome and freely adaptable input method is no longer a problem. Although this input method is a little worse than the new sogou and Google Dog input methods, it is by no means worse than the Microsoft input method.

3. Look at the picture: Under windows, I have been using ACD See 3.0, which is fast and simple. Apple also has an OSX version of ACD See, but it is not easy to use. I have used xsee, picture viewer, ffview, etc. There are also many iView MediaPro strongly recommended by Apple users, and they all feel bad. Later, I found a software called cocoviewX, which is not bad. It was not until I found Xee that the problem was completely solved. Although some functions of iPhoto given by Apple are good, it is troublesome as a whole. You need to import to see the broken picture, which is not as "valuable" as iTunes.

4.BT: I don't think Azureus under OSX is worse than BitComet under windows, but I can bury my head in porn silently anyway.

5. electric donkey/mule: it is basically used to shoot porn, so for me, electric donkey is donkey. Under the rule of OSX, it is not called electric donkey, but A Mu Le. The setting is very troublesome and not easy to use. I don't see any other choice. If anyone knows, please give me advice.

6. Web browsing: The bad IE under OSX stopped developing (thank goodness). Everyone on Apple seems to be basically using Firefox, which is no different from the feeling of using it under windows. Many China websites don't support Apple's own Safari browser, but Sarari does look better than Firefox.

7.DVD player: I haven't found anything as useful as PowerDVD under windows. Although the DVD player that comes with OSX is not bad as a whole, as a player used on a computer, it doesn't have a playback progress bar that can be quickly positioned with the mouse.

8. Universal multimedia player: I didn't find anything so easy to use under windows, but VLC under OSX is already very good.

9.IM: MSN Messenger has an OSX version, which is ok to use. QQ has an unofficial luma QQ, and its developer has not been arrested so far.

10. wall-breaking tools: there is no such thing as not borrowing and not being free. Fortunately, TOR has an OSX version.

1 1. Virtual machine software: I only tried VMware Fusion and found it very useful, so I didn't try parallel desk. Neither of them is free anyway. In most cases, the speed of running xp with a virtual machine on an Intel chip Mac is satisfactory, so I didn't even try boot camp. I don't want to restart the computer when the two systems switch. The xp graphics card running by the virtual machine has poor performance, not to mention 3D games, and video playback is invalid.

12.ID3Mod2: With iTunes under OSX, you will find that more than half of Chinese songs are garbled after being imported. There is a software called ID3Mod2 that can solve this problem in batches, but this small software is not free.

Finally, let's talk about the mouse feeling of OSX, which is a very important nagging.

When old users of windows switch to MAC, they are likely to find out (but many slow people can't find out. Congratulations to them first) It's awkward to move the mouse in OS X. The movement of the pointer is a feeling of slightly delayed response (regardless of whether you set the moving sensitivity to the highest level), just like someone said in the Apple Technical Forum, "It's like sliding the mouse in the mud". If you want to find the feeling of grasping fingers in windows of OSX, the only way is to buy a Microsoft mouse, install Microsoft mouse driver software for OSX, and then change the way of pointer movement to Microsoft driver in the system preset. It seems that it is not the mouse hardware but the principle of driving mode that determines the difference in hand feel. If you have the ability to use Microsoft mouse drivers to drive other brands of mice, such as Apple or Logitech, it should have the same effect in theory.

What are the advantages of the black apple system? The advantage is that, like a real apple, it costs no money, but it is not easy to install and drive.

There is no advantage, but a small number of PCs can be equipped with mac os x, which saves money.

What are the advantages of Apple's system? Among the latest three Power Mac CG 4 computers, Apple has adopted the GeForce2MX graphics card specially built for Macs in NVIDIA, but the low-end 466 MHz Power Mac CG 4CG4, iMAC and notebook computers still use ATIRAGE 128 as the standard configuration of the graphics subsystem ... The full manual mode and the 2.5-inch 230,000-pixel LCD screen on the back of the fuselage are also outstanding advantages.

What are the disadvantages of the black apple system? 1. Five countries. There is a forbidden symbol on the apple. Search for it yourself. Just turn on AHCI's taboo symbol

What's the difference between ios and Apple? First of all, in terms of fluency, the ios system has an advantage. Why do you say that? Android system adopts the running mechanism of virtual machine, which needs to consume more system resources. Android system will change cards after a period of use, while ios system will hardly have cards, and the desktop sliding sensitivity of Android system is not as good as that of ios system.

From the perspective of cost performance. Apple has a patent on the ios system. If other mobile phone manufacturers want to use the ios system, they will definitely charge, but how can Apple give its own system to others? Android system is a free and open source system provided by Google, and Android has more application interface APIs than iOS, so it is natural to use Android to realize many functions that can't be done without tossing on iOS. Because of open source code, Android is naturally more playable than iOS. From the perspective of cost performance, the Android system will definitely explode the ios system.

three

From the perspective of power saving, ios system is more power saving. Some Android phone users may ask: If I keep playing, can my phone last all day? This may be due to the large battery capacity. Because this is determined by institutional mechanisms. Android will occupy more resources to support the system running, which will cause it to consume more power.

Judging from the background execution program, the IOS system does not need to clean up the background at all. IOS's unique task management mechanism. When the application is not running in the foreground, all other applications (programs supporting so-called background execution) are suspended by the system after 10 minutes, except GPS service, audio playback service and VOIP service. Technically, being suspended means not executing, but the data resides in memory. The illusion of multitasking in IOS systems such as QQ seems to run in the background, but it is not. The message you can receive is just a system push service. Whether your application is running or not, IOS will

What's the difference between Apple system and miu system? One is the IOS system, and the other is the Android deep customization system. What's the difference between IOS and Android? What's the difference between them?

What are the advantages and disadvantages of Apple system? 1. The Apple system is better matched with its own hardware, so that the performance of the system can be better played. Through all kinds of feedback, the Apple system is still very good.

2. First of all, Apple's system is closed, and foreign software can only be downloaded and used through the app store after being reviewed by Apple, thus ensuring the security of the system to a certain extent, so that Trojans, rogue software, advertisements and so on can no longer appear on Apple's mobile phone. But the disadvantage is that some software needs to be charged.

3. Apple system can also escape from prison. After jailbreaking, all kinds of software can be used at will, but the security of mobile phones is much lower.

4, Apple mobile phone is good, in fact, a large part is because of its hardware design, hardware can better ensure the effect of mobile phone use.
