Both are huge right now and both have created and are continuing to create some absolutely amazing products for consumers.
Which company do you prefer? Why?
Which company do you think has more long-term viability?
I'm somewhere in the middle. Trying to figure out with company to hitch my wagon to. Google is seemingly everywhere but I'm not sure they have a grasp on the aesthetics that make such a difference when comparing them to Apple products.

I guess I like them both pretty equally. I have an iPhone and Macbook, but use Gmail, Google Chrome, and many other Google products.
I do think Apple products are overpriced, but the price doesn't really impact their demand so maybe I'm wrong. My Macbook is a hand-me-down, though it was only a couple of months old when I got it. I haven't yet seen any justification for the $500 additional cost of it over my Dell laptop.

Depends on device.
I have an ipad and an iphone, both of which I like a lot. I also have a smaller Android based lenovo Yoga tablet I really like a lot as well.
I keep both IE and Chrome on my PC. Personal preference is Chrome, but wife likes IE better.

Apple makes quality stuff that costs too much and is this used by douche bags and hipsters for the most part.
Google wants to take over the world of knowledge and know everything and sell it to advertisers but they make way cooler crap.

I've got an android phone and a PC.
The only apple stuff I use are the iPod and iPad.

Oh, I also have an iPad but the kids use it way more than I do. I've been thinking about getting one for myself. It's an amazing device.

Google is better now and will continue to separate itself from Apple. I have a degree in Computer Science and as of two-three years ago had all Apple products(phone, ipad, 2 macbooks, and iMac). I now own zero Apple products. Apple has lost its touch and became complacent. Instead of bettering their products, they have just released the same product. It's only a matter of time until the non-tech lovers side of society figures this out.

No, it doesn't. Apple has the iPod...for now...that's the only product that is better than an Android/Google product.

All of my friends were talking about the new stuff their iphones do since the last update. Every single one of these things my android did... I say did because my android from 4 years ago did it.

Apple sucks. Their products are for the technologically retarded and people that think they look cool with that lit up Apple logo.
Google FTW.

I agree. Nobody is touching them in the tablet market. I've played w a kindle fire, nook, galaxy tab and none of them compete with what the iPad is.
I fight my kids to play games on it.

I have an Iphone and a Mac but I'm not an apple chest thumper like many of the apple cult. That being said, in my personal experience, every phone/computer I've had that wasn't apple was buggy as frick so I'm a little traumatized by those experiences.
I haven't ventured out in the last couple years though, so I can't really speak for any products on the market now. I am getting tired of them releasing new phones that are nearly identical to the previous except for a few minuscule features.
I'm due for an upgrade in September and I'll probably test the market.

Meh. I'm using a MacBook right now and I hate it. Give me a Windows computer any day over this POS.

I've pushed out 5k iPads 400 MacBook Pros and 1000s of PCs.
The failure rate of Macs is the exact same as PCs.
Chromebooks actually were the best product I've ever pushed out as far as out of box success rate.

At this point I honestly can't ever imagine switching back to a PC. My experience with them was so fricking awful. 5 years, 4 different computers and over 3 grand has turned me off to PC for ever as far as I'm concerned right now.
My macbook is absolutely perfect and I would of paid 3x the price for it to get rid of the headache and hassle.
