Hello!
I'm starting my second year at University in September studying Graphic Communication, and work part time in design within a web design company.
I have an HP laptop, and I am one of very few people in a class of about 35 that has a PC instead of a MacBook. I'm starting to wonder if I should invest in a Mac myself, but struggling to see realistically what it could do that my PC doesn't? I use a Mac Mini at work but it crashes on a daily basis due to its age so doesn't give me a good idea of how they work.
I have managed to do everything that my classmates have done for our projects on their MacBooks with the Adobe creative cloud, with the only obvious difference I can tell is the performance speed.
I'd like to get opinions from people who have had both PC and Mac's to tell me whether there is any point in spending the money or if MacBooks are simply about having the brand name.
Thanks!
