5 Real-Life Problems OS X Yosemite Solves, And Windows 8.1 Screws Up || Konrad Krawczyk



Konrad Krawczyk :



1. It’s still free!

Not that we were expecting Apple to hike the price of OS X Yosemite after making OS X Mavericks free in October 2013, but it’s still worth noting that Windows’ biggest competitor is free. Meanwhile, a copy of Windows 8 costs roughly $100 on Newegg. Even Windows 7, despite the fact that it’s approaching five years of age, is the same price.




The fact is this. I’m not a Microsoft apologist or an Apple acolyte. I’m simply a consumer that likes good products, whether they’re made by Microsoft, Apple, Acme, or Stratton Oakmont, just like you. In the case of OS X Yosemite, instead of trying to shove a mobile-ish OS down our throats as Microsoft did with Windows 8, Apple is aiming to make life easier for us desktop folk.
As someone who’s about to head home to a Windows 7 PC, how can I not like that?
