10 biggest technology myths

For graphics work, a Mac is best

This one too was true sometime back. But now it’s more of a myth than a fact. Before 2006, Apple was using processors based on PowerPC architecture by IBM. Compared to Intel or AMD processors, PowerPC chips had an advantage in graphics-heavy work. But after 2006, Apple shifted to Intel processors. A Mac still has some advantage in font management as well as quality of bundled monitor. But if you are a graphic designer who knows your trade well and who takes care while choosing his gear, you don’t need to pay premium and buy a Mac just because someone told you that it is better for graphics work.

Is it really true that Mac comes with better monitors than regular PC..?
And what does font management mean ?

Thanks for the info buddy. Then I'd like to prefer distros which don't have a refresh button.

In Linux Pressing the F5 key while you are in desktop will refresh it !!

So, it actually has it. Only the difference is the GUI doesn't have it by default.

You can add manually the 'Refresh thing' though!!
