Windows or Macintosh...

-
In the computer world there are two major operating system providers which are currently dominating. One is Windows and the other is Macintosh. Both have their own number of fans and their is a constant debate between both the groups to prove them the best......
So now let's see the advantages and disadvantages of both the systems and just see which one to buy if there I no price barrier.....

1. The Design factor :
This is where apple is most powerful in. The craze of apple among the masses is due to its amazing design. We are talking about design of the computer or laptop here as Macintosh or Mac OS is available on Apple Computers only. From its beginning Apple has focus on the outer. Appearance which makes it different from the other. While Windows can be installed in a lots of computers of different companies and price brackets so the design factor is a bit low in Windows PC's. But  when you buy windows PC in the price range of Apple ... Companies like Dell , HP , lenovo, are offering better designs which look good... In the higher price range Alien Ware offers some amazing designs too... In apple if you like the OS but you don't like the design of computer then you can do nothing you have to live with it. This is not the case with Windows as lots of companies manufacture Windows PC and you can choose from many designs.

2. Hardware :
Apple has pretty expencive hardware in terms of price and good too but you have to stick to the specification given by the manufacturer. While windows can be custom built according to your requirements and you can make changes to the specifications given by the manufacturer. Also in the price. Bracket apple lacks in some hardware like hard drive space and ram from Windows based PCs. Still apple has got some features that are not given on PCs.

3. The Operating System :
Apple and Windows have completely different user interface and usability.
While apple is really easy to use and can be refered as set it and forget it OS , Windows is not as good and easy but still the most used computer interface of the world. Both Apple And Windows are working hard to improve their interface and with Windows 8.1 building craze among masses, Apple is also constantly trying to come up with newer ideas.....

Bayesian Network Bayesian Network is a type of probabilistic graphical model that uses Bayesian inference for probability computation. Representation of casual relations makes the representation and inference efficient.  Bayesian Network It is a graphical model that efficiently encodes the joint probability distribution for a large set of variables. Arcs represent probabilistic dependence on variables. Lack of an arc represents independence. The network structure is a directed acyclic graph. Support Vector Machines It is a machine learning algorithm that is used in classification and regression. But it is mostly used in classification problems. What it basically does is, it plots each data item as a point in n-dimensional space with values of each feature being values of a particular point and then separates the classes using a hyper-plane. The line that separates the classes is determined by a subset of points know as Support Vectors. Points with a ...

Under this scheme goods and services are taxed at following rates, 0%, 5%, 18%, 28%.  Before the implementation of GST  people were confused on how it is gonna impact their shopping bill. Now that it is in effect, let's see its impact on the gadgets and related services market. Earlier the tax rate on smartphones was nearly 13.5% but after GST it's 12%. All parts and components of the smartphone come under this category. There is no remarkable change in the wireless services like transmission and reception of voice and communication, landline telephone sets and wired connection due to GST. If we talk about smartphones that are imported, they are gonna get costlier as the government is gonna impose a 10% customs duty on and indirectly it is gonna benefit India as manufacturers will then consider establishing their manufacturing units in India that will create...
