Reasons for switching to a Mac:


Working on a computer that doesn’t have a virus scanner may seem a bit uncommon, but it’s really how we like things to be. The Mac OS X operating system is not affected by any of the hundreds, if not thousands, of PC viruses out there. In other words, Mac computers feature built-in defenses that help keep you safe from spyware and malware. It also saves you from scanning for anti-virus software, from the hassle of constant alerts, and from often expensively annoying updates. Because computers with a Mac OS X do not become hindered by viruses or malware, you’ll save tons of money on yearly virus scanner licenses, no nightlong scans of your hard drives, and consequently, more time to play.

2. It all works!

Apple has diligently designed the best software and operating system (OS X), making sure it all works properly and without crashing. We know your time means money, and Apple as well as VIVO Computers wants you to save and to max out your productivity.

3. No drivers.

Most base systems do not require a driver in order to function properly. Most devices are compatible with Macs and all the applications are designed to work in a plug-and-play manner.

4. Affordable, if not free, software upgrades ($19.99) as well as free software updates. Apple has made sure that upgrading your operating system translates into a hassle-free process with less troubleshooting, and therefore, fewer headaches. Why worry about overpaying for operating system upgrades anymore?

5. Outstanding state-of-the-art hardware and software.

Another important reason why Macs perform longer and are much more reliable than the average personal computer on the market.

Why worry about warranty so much when Apple products rarely break?

6. Amazing operating system “OS X”.

Macs can run both the Mac OS X operating system and Windows (Windows XP to Windows 8) either with Apple’s Boot Camp or Parallels Desktop (without rebooting) proprietary applications. Mac OS X is also designed to run Windows applications without hassles. This can be a huge plus for long-time Windows users who don’t want to reinstall their operating system on a twice-yearly basis.

7. Award-winning technical support.

Yes, just like it sounds. Award-winning technical support from Apple, either through the Apple Retail Store (Genius Bar, Joint Venture, Workshops, or One to One) or over the phone with the extended warranty also known as the AppleCare Protection Plan. Additionally, VIVO Computers also offers free tech support for all our customers within the 30-day warranty period.

And the list goes on and on…so why are you waiting to switch over to a Mac?
