PC Vs Mac

This is pretty much the saying for the ultimate war between Windows and Apple. The phrase im talking about is “PC versus Mac”. But its finely gotten on my nerves. The phrase should be “Windows versus Mac”. My reason behind this is this.

What the hell does P.C. stand for? “Personal Computer” right? Well doesn’t that make a Mac a PC? What about computers you see in offices and businesses (either a Windows machine or a Mac). They are not and shouldnt not be used as a “Personal Computer”, does that mean they are neither a PC or a Mac?

So saying “PC vs Mac” is wrong. Its like saying “Truck vs Ford”, Or saying “Soda vs Dr Pepper”. You never ask a friend/coworker, “Hey do you drive a Ford or a truck” or ” Hey whats your favorite drink, soda or Dr Pepper”

OK i know that apple makes their own machines and the Apple OS can only be run on those machines. And every other computer company makes PCs that run windows. But it doesn’t mean you can compare a general object to a specific object.

Also why is this “war” still going? You dont see car companies dissing other car companies. Why is Windows and Mac still dissing each other when they both have great products?

PS. I couldn’t find a good image to put at the top :(
