Macs vs. Pcs

 

With so many computers on the market today, making a choice on what to buy seems to be getting difficult over time, but the reality is, Macs and PCs are different because of their multimedia, affordability, and selection. To begin, with multimedia is an important feature to have on a computer, whether, you`re waiting for someone or simply bored; your pc is filled with endless time wasting games like, Angry Birds and Words with Friends. On the other hand, macs aren’t multimedia friendly because they aren’t compatible with many games. Furthermore, the price of the device can pull you to one side or the other. Macs can be very expensive costing more than twelve hundred dollars for the simplest computer. However on the other side, pcs aren’t expensive at all. They usually cost less than eight hundred dollars depending on which model you buy. Finally, selection helps you chose the one best for you, but if you don’t have many varieties, then you can’t make a good purchase. Macs come in nine basic models of one color, while pcs are available in a numerous variety of choices and color. All in all, there is a clear advantage for pc owners over Mac for multimedia, affordability, and selection. For me personally, I am a pc user, I have been using a pc for about four years, and it’s been working fine. Many people are complaining that the pcs are getting a lot of viruses and crashing but I haven’t had that many viruses and it has never crashed when I was using it. In addition I have found out that for the price you buy your pc, it will outlast a traditional Mac. Therefore a pc is definitely very dependable, affordable, and extremely entertaining computer to have. Depending on which operating system you prefer both Mac and pc are excellent computers to own.

Dear, mom

            I would like to thank you for everything you do for me. Thank you for giving me rides to school when I needed them, helping me with my homework and taking care of me for so long. First, Thank you for giving me rides to school when I needed them. For instance, when I am usually late on Friday mornings due to my lack of waking up on time, you are there, and on Saturday mornings when you get up in the morning just for me. Thank you for helping me with my homework. For example, when I don’t understand a three by three math equation, you make time for me and explain it to me. And when I had trouble writing this thank you letter, you gave ideas until I was able to. I also want to thank you for being a great mother and taking care of me. For instance, when I come home from school, I am attracted by the smell coming from the kitchen. Whenever, I am not confident with my self, you are always there to guide and support me until I succeed. I just want to say thank you for everything you have ever done for me in my life.

Sincerely,

Michael Hanna

How to change a flat tire on a car

            Being stranded on the shoulder of the highway with a flat tire can be bad, but not knowing the solution to your problem is worse. Having the knowledge and experience to change a flat tire can come in handy in every mechanical situation. To change a flat tire on a car, there are eight steps. First you must prepare the spare tire, the jack, and a lug wrench. Second, loosen the hub cap nuts and pry the hub cap to remove it. Third, loosen the lug nuts of the wheel. Make sure not to loosen the lug nuts to loose. Fourth, position the jack under the jack points. They are usually behind the wheel if it’s the front tire or in front of the wheel if it’s the back tire. Be sure to position the jack in the correct location, as this may cause damage to your body frame. Fifth, jack up the vehicle at least three inches off the ground. You can do this by inserting your wrench handle into the jack, than turning clockwise to go up and counter clockwise to go down. After the vehicle is jacked up, never stick your hands or legs under the vehicle, as the vehicle can fall and cause personal injury or even death. Sixth, remove the lug nuts by turning left, and remove the tire. Caution, your tire may be heavy. Seventh, take the spare tire and center it on the wheel stud. Next, install and hand tighten the wheel lug nuts. Finally, lower the vehicle by turning the jack handle counter clockwise and make sure that once again the lug nuts are wrench tight, as this may cause problems in the future. Always be sure that you are working safely whenever you’re dealing with mechanical problems. Gaining this knowledge, you should be able to solve the problem by changing a flat tire on a car
