FACT CHECK SAME TIME PERIOD: TRUE

unfortunately, same experience over the same time period comparison between my wife's mac and my pcs. I have never lost so many files as I have working at my former job on Office 365 at any other time or machine or software.

For me the hardware choices and the increased software availability for the PC over time won me over to the PC. However, in retirement, other than the python investment courses i am currently taking, there is nothing I have on the PC which isn't on the MAC, other than experience and familiarity.

Since the P in PC is personal, its a personal choice and its really up to you and your use case and your budget. .
