online degree programs psychology | Windows or Mac for your onine classes
I got a question about my post on computer hardware. The question is:
Do I need a Windows PC or a Mac computer?
Good question!
However I’m afraid the answer is not that easy
If you are in the market for a computer to use for college classes, I recommend that you check with the college to see if they recommend one or the other.
That will depend on the type of degree program you’re in as well. For example, if you’re taking an Graphics Art degree program, once you get past the general education requirements the Art College may require a Mac computer. If you’re taking business classes then a Windows PC is probably OK.
So again, check with the college. Now if you’re not in a specific degree program and just taking a class here an there, then I don’t think it makes as much of a difference, but you should check nonetheless.
One last thing - today’s Mac computer is able to run most if not all of today’s Windows programs. In addition, the Mac is less prone to virus and other problems that have plagued the Windows PC for years. So if you don’t have a computer yet, take a serious look at the Mac.
