  • IBM seeing great returns on over 277,000 Macs and iOS devices issued to employees

    I love Macs and have had one at home for 25+ year. But, I rely on Excel a lot at work and Excel just sucks on a Mac, and it's just not worth emulating it when I can just use a cheap W10 machine.
    </blockquote I’ve always found that Excel itself sucks, open office products work great on Macs if you don’t want to use the Apple Numbers, both will bring in Excel files and generate on the output side Excel files I do believe. One of the major reasons I always disliked Excel is that MS has the need to swizzle it all around every new release and you always have to hunt for where they moved or ‘hid’ things....

  • Apple taking Maps 'to the next level' in iOS 12

    It’s about time, I stopped using maps altogether because it’s so bad. We travel a lot, I use google maps, the routing feature, while far from perfect it is WAY ahead of Apple maps.

  • Dell XPS 13 9370 vs. Apple's 13-inch MacBook Pro, the ultimate comparison

    Worked in IS for years and before a pc was even thought of. Grew with the windows machines and that was all I knew, like the author switched to Mac about 4 years ago, windows, whatever release while has a couple of things I still like cannot compete with the Apple OS period! Apple is based on the Unix OS and it is the only way an OS should be set up imho. Installing anything on a windows machine begins with intertwining it with the OS, where it does not on Mac or Unix, they keep the OS pristine! That is one reason why the Apple OS is so good and with the world class security they provide. No I have no desire to go back to a windows machine however many widget-gidget-gadget they say they have come out with. It is however unfortunate that all software doesn’t have a Mac OS equivalent which does cause issues now and then.
