MAC and PC accessories

Don't pay more for MAC accessories

MACs and PCs are two opposing sides, but by and large, most branded accessories and peripherals you buy today are certified to work with both. You may come across some components that purport to be specifically made for MACs, mostly external hard drives or DVD writers - and therefore are available at a premium. Don't fall prey to this trap because any external USB hard drive will work with both PC or MAC; and even on both simultaneously, as long as the drive format is FAT32. Even if a drive is pre-formatted as NTFS (a Windows only format), it can easily be changed when new.
