I've been using laptop and windows program for a long time already and it's very useful for me even with wallets and cryptocurrency for as long as you know also the programs you use. I've been looking at macbook of my friends and did some research based on my laptop and my friends MacBooks. I found out that there are MacBooks that handle also windows programs at the same time. It's like two in one. Because of that, I'm interested to have a MacBook. Plus the benefits it can give. I hope this helps.

in my opinion if we talk about the world of crypto is broad but if only for access in the world of crypto using Macbook can also follow if we actively participate in playing in the world of crypto it must require strong spection and large capacity for the purposes of access our network in the world of crypro for example Laptop and other windows

Hi everyone,

I must changing from laptop and actually i use a Windows HP laptop. Now we know all, security is a big issue in crypto. And off course the change to have a virus or malware is much lower with a mac. So i thinking to taking a MacBook in place a Windows laptop. But there are to points i esitate:

- Is it eassy to switch between a Windows pc a going to a MacBook?
- Are all the applications and wallet released at the same time then for Windows? When i looked for the RPX presale, the wallet to use with Neocoins, get released much soner then for mac. I even think it was a issue to get a macwallet that can be used for the RPX presale.

So is it worth to make to step the change and to go to a macbook? Please dont aswer with your personal feeling (because everybody has a preference..), but with your technical advice, and specialy when you do cryptoinvestment and use wallets and whant to use applications.

Thanks a lot for your help!

I personally use windows laptop by now but I am looking forward to buying a mac. My friends suggested it because it is better in many ways except gaming ofcourse. I prefer ny windows when I am gaming because the game runs smoother and can run a higher fps games. When on crypto works, I prefer to use mac because it is somehow more secured but yeah as most apple products have,it is more expensive. I also want to have both because I can use them on different purposes,when gaming I will use windows and if on crypto I will use mac. As a student,we use autocad and we know it requires a unit with high specs so it will run smooth so as my professors suggest, get a mac.

I  do want to have a wider view of want ever I am doing and do work hard to do my pre placing of order very well and I don't want any body to take advantage of business opportunities before becouse of the system I am using.

I’m a windows user since the beginning and starting to join the crypto. But, my phone that I am using is brand of apple, We all know that the security features in macbook is high end than windows. So, if you have an extra money just go with macbook since we need to secure our wallets in an online wallet storage. But, as you can see windows is much easier to use and convenient. There are advantages and disadvantages that relies to this two OS but if I were you, go with the OS that you are comfortable with.

I guess that's not really in mind if you are just trading in cryptocurrency but if you are a developer or creator of some coin then macbook is the right choice to design or build some cryptocurrency.

I think windows laptop are good because window is more compatible as compared to mac. Even most developer works on windows.
You mentioned that there are some virus and security issue. So my suggestion is to use genuine window only with genuine anti virus.
If you want to do mining then i will suggest to use Linux system

I'm using windows for my crypto wallet and hardly ever login to my wallet because I am not a trader so I want to keep my wallet offline as much as possible.But I think windows is the best option because it is cheaper and convenient to use for everyone.
AND i hate apple products. Tongue

for more secure your data and your balance I think you should choose Macbook.
I understand that Macbook is more expensive than Windows.  Cheesy  but in the digital currency your account and data is everything.

Both of them are good Smiley. If you only need a laptop to work I think Macbook is better one cause when your laptop suddenly turned off because of running out of battery all of your work still remain until the next time you turn on your Macbook. But if you want to work and play game at the same time I think you should choose a windows laptop. Beside if you don't have much money I think a windows laptop is also a better option as well Cheesy

Should not be too worried about Microsoft systems
Its own habits are more important now that the operating system is already safe
Moreover, under the premise of wallet password protection, even if hacked, you still have the assets

Macbook is much safe but the function is limited. Windows is good also malware is at risk. Anyway just  always check for the function if its good for you  . For me its better mac easy to use and acces. Great for heavy users. Goodluck

My suggestion would be Macbook but if you are tight on budget windows doesn't hurt. Make sure you don't store lot's of crypto on either of the machines instead invest in a hardware wallet or go with a paper wallet.

Windows for new coins wallets and macbook for established coins as it offers good security. Maintaing two laps is not a big thing for a trader and it is common to have more than one pc for a trader.
