    I have a laptop at home that runs on Windows. I don't have internet access at home, so I go to the library. Most library computers have Windows, but I'm currently using one that is a Mac and I HATE IT!!! Windows is so much better.

    Did you know you can run Windows on a Mac?
    Today the computer industry is changing so fast it’s hard to make sweeping generalizations of the old fashioned kind like ‘Mac V Window’. To start with there are other operating systems such as the many versions of Linux, some of them available free.
    I don’t want to get involved in a Mac V Windows argument as my experience working with Australia’s largest Windows network was absolute hell. People get very emotional about these issues. It’s like groups who support different football teams arguing who is best. In the end a waste of time. Anyhow, the release of a whole range of new Windows & Mac computers is being delayed due to the effects of the Covid 19 virus on the IT industry in China. One interesting development to watch though is the rumour Mac are about to dump Intel chips for an entirely new kind.

    My suspicion is the rabid development of mobile phones is about to kill of a large part of desktop/laptop/iPad sales. Take for instance the projection by laser of a 'keybourd image' onto your chosen surface that inputs to a mobile.
