Nowadays, Apple picking up awards from a “PC” magazine isn’t very surprising anymore. This time, Apple has once again swept up all the awards from PC Magazine’s 21st Annual Reader Survey in all the categories of Desktop and Notebook computers. This is in the September 2008 issue of PC Magazine, which I don’t normally read but happened to chance upon a copy in my workplace yesterday.
Macs are really enjoyable to use. I think many people have realized that, but some are still apprehensive about abandoning their familiar world of WIndows. As more and more friends and colleagues make the switch, I guess these people will eventually find the courage to take the leap. I guess that’s why we see their sales figures and user base continue to grow at an increasing rate, overtaking others in the industry.
In separate news, Apple has found itself to be the most-sought computer brand according to a survey conducted by ChangeWave Research.
Also interestingly, Apple is cited to be the number 10 top brand on the web (again) according to Nielsen Online. If you look at the table, Apple is the only computer hardware manufacturer in the list. Of course I’m sure iTunes, iPods and iPhones probably helped push them ahead of other brands.
