Can you advise me about a good (tolerable) computer?

My Mac Ipad Air is going back to the shop tomorrow. I hate it. How can it be used in big business when you have to type with two fingers! The one thing it does is take BEAUTIFUL photographs.

Mac costs more than PC's. Why is that? I started with Macs in 1993 - 20 years. I got that type because I'd heard that little kids in school could use them. I thought if they could use them so could I.

Itsmee, don't give up on Mac's, they are a lot more user friendly than Microsoft, no worries about Viris', they cost more because they are better, you won't go wrong if you invest in a OS X PC's, either the 21.5 inch or the flagship 27 inch, 8 gig Ram, 1 Terabyte hard drive. it took two years to convince me to go Mac, i have never looked back on the decision to get one, well worth the investment. Happy Mac ing.:)

Woops. I wrote you a long response and somehow I lost it. The bottom line of the note was "I think I need to spend more money for my Mac. I didn't like touching the screen, typing with one or two fingers, having to enlarge the print ALL the time and I didn't even like the cover. It looked like a cheap note book. Anyway, On the basis of your words, I am returning the dinky Mac and paying a little more and getting a new Mac.
The Mac I'm typing on now I bought in 1993. It has had a lot of use. It still is useful for many tasks.

Yes, I have an excellent Mac. I'm typing on it now. It's 15 years old. My problem is with those little ones. (I Pad Air, etc) My old one is losing capabilites now but it has been my friend for a long, long time. : (
What do you call your Mac?

Oh ... Your CAT is Mac. Cute.
I am lost without a computer. Just lost. I have a long list of research words. I was so busy when I was working I just stopped learning. I don't read very much but I do look up things I don't understand. I exercise my brain.
Julie: TYPING INSTEAD OF SMOKING IS A GENIUS MOVE. GOOD FOR YOU.
Try putting a clove in your mouth. (The kind people stick in hams) It will numb your mouth and pretty much stop your craving. You should probably check with your Orthodontist before doing that but it sure worked for me for awhile. I still chew Nicorette Gum. Quitting smoking was ... very very very difficult for me.
