Using a Macintosh for Desktop Publishing

For years professional design and production was done almost entirely on a Mac. It's true that PCs now dominate the computing world and many designers choose to use PCs. Even though many of the old standy arguments in favor of the Mac no longer hold true, there are still valid reasons why the Mac may be the better choice for desktop publishing and graphic design work.The introduction of scads of consumer desktop publishing software programs for the Windows platform meant that eventually more and more of these PC users would be drawn to doing professional desktop publishing and design work. And they wanted to keep their PCs. But Mac has traditionally been the platform of choice for professional design work and these Windows users were and sometimes still are viewed as non-serious amateurs causing some designers to question whether remaining with the PC platform is the best choice.
