  • The REAL Truth On Macs vs PCs for Graphic Design. Are You on the Wrong Side?
    Nov 19 2024

    Forget about Mike Tyson vs Jake Paul - there is a BIGGER rivalry for Graphic Designers: Mac vs PC. For decades, Graphic Designers have worshipped at the altar of the Mac—it's been the gold standard for Graphic Designers, the non-negotiable creative tool, right? But is that reputation still deserved, or are designers just caught in the cult of Mac? Do you really need a Mac for Graphic Design?

    This week on The Angry Designer podcast, we dive into the ultimate creative rivalry: Mac vs PC. Do you really need a Mac to be a great Graphic Designer, or are you just paying for the brand? We're tearing down the hype and dissecting the hard facts to uncover:

    • How Mac's slick tradition turned into a Graphic Designer status symbol
    • The raw truth about performance, price, and longevity between MacBook Pro, Dell XPS, and Surface for Graphic Design
    • Which computer is right FOR YOU!
    • The ONE thing Mac has that PCs can’t touch—and why it might be a game-changer


    Whether you're a loyal Mac diehard or a PC tinkerer, it's time to question what really matters for your creative career.
