Whether you're overdue for an update or you'd like to add another device to your collection, buying a computer can be an intimidating process. Although there are so many options available, choosing an Apple® computer is always smart. Their desktop models, known as the iMac® product line, and their Macbook® laptops are sleek, versatile, and powerful, making them well worth the investment. Here's a closer look at why they stand above the competition.

Why Your Next Computer Should Be an Apple

1. More Secure

When it comes to cybersecurity, most computer viruses are programmed to infect Windows®-based computers. Although a strong firewall and robust anti-malware software can effectively protect and catch many issues, being on a macOS® prevents most of those from being a problem at all. 

However, some viruses can harm an Apple computer, so you should still take precautions like installing macOS-specific anti-malware software and being savvy about suspicious email attachments and websites. You'll still enjoy the peace of mind that comes with not having to be nervous every time you sit down to work or surf the web. 

2. Seamless Integration

If, like many people, you have an iPhone® or iPad®, opting for an Apple computer allows you to communicate and essentially switch between devices effortlessly. Not only can you sync and back up your devices, but you can also easily send files or pick up where you left off in an app. 

For example, if you need to write an important list or note, you can start drafting it on your phone and then finish it later when you reach your computer since both devices feature Apple's popular Notes app and use the cloud to access the same data. You can even mirror your screen if you need to do a presentation or share a fun video. 

3. You Can Still Run Windows,

Even though you have an Apple computer, if you have the right software, you can install Windows and toggle between the operating systems. This is something that's officially supported by Apple too. They provide Boot Camp®, a utility that's available on Intel®-based laptops and desktops. If you've been worried you wouldn't be able to use a Windows-only program, you can rest assured that it won't be a problem.
