Why Some MAC Users Won't Buy Your Products
PC stands for Personal Computer. Technically, it covers any type of personal computer but over time it has come to refer to PCs running Windows.
MAC stands for Media Access Control. A MAC is not a type of computer.
Mac is short for Macintosh, which is a type of computer.
Some people don't know the difference between MAC and a Mac. Others do.
So, when you say that your product will work for a PC or a MAC, what you're saying is that you really don't have a clue about Macintosh computers. You've lost credibility at that point. And the sale.
Mind you, even some Mac users don't know the difference between MAC and a Mac.
But, keep this in mind... Saying your product works with a "PC or Mac" is not likely to cost you a sale. Saying your product works with a "PC or MAC" just might.
Some may think that's nit-picky, but it really comes down to a matter of credibility. And, any perceived loss of credibility can cost you a sale.
And, yes, I intentionally used "MAC" in the title to draw the attention of those who use that acronym.
