Hello, I have used both pc's and Mac's for years. At home I work with three old Mac, at school I have to use pc. I prefer Mac, because it is more reliable than any pentium pc (IBM or compatible). Win95 seems to be just a poor copy of MacOS. I use computer for a serious work, not for fixing and customing the machine. All necessary programs you may need are available for Mac's or it's clones (Apple has licensed MacOs) (games not included). Anyway, Bill Gates and Microsoft control also Mac programs in some sense. There are some differerencies, but the average user like me would vote for Mac. After Mac it was very frustrating start working with Win95, because it had a very complex system of file managering etc. Yours, Olli-Matti Selin History teacher P.s. Is there any school interestde in co-operation with a finnish junior high school specialised in communiaction and enviroment?
