PC vs. Mac 3

July 29th, 2009

MACxPC_02x01

I’m trying to be fair. And I must say this is a tight competition.

Today Macs get one point because of their “Spaces” application which is basically a software that allows you to have multiple desktops in the same monitor. To see all your desktop areas you just have to press a button and click on the desktop you want or you can even slide from a desktop to another as the pages in the iPhone.

First time I saw that, it wasn’t on a Mac. I saw it for the first time in Linux Ubuntu a few years ago, but it was a beta version. And now Apple added their touch of good taste on it.

Ya know… Multi / Virtual desktop support has been around since windows xp right? Between Microsoft constantly releasing “power toys” for their operating systems and third party vendors offering open source apps… well… you should check around…
