Linux vs Macintosh

The Mac OS X vs the Linux distributions

It all come down to  this:

I don't think there is anything Mac has done with the new release of the new Mac OS X Operating System that Linux can't do.

But in some sense I am afraid, mostly in terms of design, the new Operating system really looks good. But you know the cost, the more the graphically intense the operating system the slower and the sluggish it becomes.

To Linux users the new features of on the Linux distribution can be introduced with ease.

Mac OS X is limiting in the sense that you have to wait for a new realise for anything amazing to show up, whereas with Linux new and amazing things are released all the time. Apple has this thing that, they will show off something that doesn't mean anything, introduce it as something new.A computer that makes calls. Okay!!!

My dedict

I'll continue to use my Manjaro Linux distro, besides I can't afford a Mac, including any of their software for production purposes, nor will I go to Windows 8.1. They're ecosystems will limit me to.

Choose Linux

If you want to try out Manjaro Linux click this and you'll choose your option, the fundamental differences between KDE, XFCE and Gnome (which is what I'm using)

KDE is beautiful with useful applications, but I have never tried it before.

XFCE is fast, anything you do is just lightning fast, whether you're opening up applications or booting and even shutting down is just fast.

Gnome which is what I'm using has a lot of applications that I've found to be useful, connecting to the web is easy, in fact it's easy to use this distro. That is why I'm planning to stick with it for the long run.

Installing Applications such as blender is easy with Manjaro Linux. I haven't experienced this so much because its not long that I have been using Linux. But installing applications does not seem to slow down the performance of the Operating System. Considering that I'm using an old PC.

Other applications i'm using are codeblocks for working on my C++ programming tasks
