I am going to purchase a desktop computer but still debating on whether to buy a pc or a mac? I am a fashion student at AAU and do most of my designs and I also work at home (real estate). Any suggestions?
Hey! I am a freelance fashion designer and graphic designer. I think you should invest in a mac. it runs amazing and you won't need to worry about viruses! BUT it is important to know BOTH platforms. Many companies use both PC and MAC OS (operating systems) and it is important that you can transition back and forth to both seamlessly. Personally, I am a MAC AND a PC girl. I own 2 laptops, my PC is my first--it is a gateway and I souped it up by adding 4 gigs of memory to speed up my processing. I learned both platforms in school which was helpful. Since I have been freelancing the last year and a half doing marketing and graphic design, I felt it would be wise to invest in the mac for my graphic design needs! So, ultimately in the fashion industry you should know BOTH :)! hope this helps!!
