Five Reasons to Switch to Mac

The Mac OS uses Apple Script automation to simplify tasks. Apple Script allows users to automate repetitive tasks, control applications, and modify documents and data, without going through hundreds of steps in several applications. Apple Script has been part of the Mac OS since System 7. It is a scripting language that uses plain English and point-and-click commands, so you don’t have to be an Apple Mac Support genius to use it. Windows’ scripting and automation capabilities are still not as simple and easy to use as Apple Script.

Speaking of automation, Microsoft programs like to make assumptions about what you are trying to do, attempting to anticipate your next move. Even on a Mac, Microsoft programs do this. If you type a “1” in Word or Entourage, the program assumes the next paragraph should start with a “2.” Users often spend too much time undoing Microsoft’s “helpful” assumptions for them to be worth the effort.

Mac OS X “contracts” fewer Viruses. Computer viruses have to be coded, just like any program. Most viruses, spyware and malware target Windows, causing a lot of security problems for PC users. There are far fewer viruses written for the Mac OS, making it a much more carefree choice. If you do need to consult a Macintosh Support London technician, it shouldn’t be for viruses.
