some slight learning disabilities and gets overwhelmed very easily. Shes is now worried that trying to convert to Mac operating systems may be to overwhelming for her because she's only ever used windows. Does anyone have a suggestion of a really good quality windows laptop or should we try out the Mac? I've been asking everyone I know the past year and have gotten no solid advise. School starts in a few weeks and I want to get her something soon. Any help would be greatly appreciated
The only Windows option in this price range that has remotely the same hardware quality of a Mac is the Microsoft Surface line, but Windows is still not as stable as MacOS. I'd go with the Mac, as there will be plenty of other students with them to help her. Once she learns those few differences between Macs and Windows PCs, Macs are a lot easier to use. Also, while it may be frustrating, just being real, it's better she learns as much as she can while she's young and has the neuroplasticity, as who knows what a future employer might be using. They only need to make reasonable accommodations for her, and using a different OS than they do for everyone else might not be reasonable.
If she can make it in college classes, she can learn how to use a Mac. My mother did in her late 50s when her job switched from PCs to Macs, and she was never technically-minded. She now gets my old Macs when I'm done with them, and I rarely have to give her any tech support. Vs when she had PCs/Windows, it was at least a monthly virus or Windows update mess.
Were you able to get it?
I have one at the $800 price waiting for in store pick up at one store. I ordered another for pick up at a different store at the $750 price.
I was thinking of returning the $800 one as soon as I picked it up but couldn't I just wait for the order to cancel itself?
