I like both mac's and PC's because they're both smexeh in their own ways, but I really hope that this thread doesn't turn into a Mac vs PC flame war. That is one nice set up you've got there. Rockin the pikmin theme! That mac is very, very attractive. :heart:

its called linux, either windows or linux, mac is a crappy unix knock off that is sold for cash. Linux is made by the people for free, Obvious choice.

Also, Ive used a mac, the crappy OS made the core 2 duo 2.5 ghz, 4gb ram slow as ****, there were almost no programs installed.

I personally like Linux better than Windows because of all the abilitys, plus you can make your format whatever the **** you want and its just easier to use it seems to me.

Im not sure what you mean by that last part though.

the advantages of windows;

development

gaming

 

the advantages of mac;

production of video, audio, and image

reliability

 

i've been a dedicated windows user for as long as any of you, and yes i've tried linux (ubuntu) and out of the 3, mac (snow leopard if you're interested) is by FAR the most reliable. i run some very intense programs and it WILL NOT crash. dont get me wrong i miss some of the... flexibility of windows, generaly if you wanted to do something on windows there was already a program out there built to do it. whereas mac is more... elitist and there are much less programs for faffing around on.

 

however, for industry (you can pick whatever industry you like...) macs are the answer. i'm doing a degree in audio engineering and therefore need to KNOW that my equipment will work every time. and in my experience, and that of my tallented and knowledgable lecturers aggree that you can only get the stability you need with apple. they just work... its brilliant... and the new generation of macs (which im lucky enough to have one of) can;

A, run windows in parallels at a speed thats almost useable in its own right! so if you want windows AND mac, you can only do that ON mac

B, if you want the full speed of windows then you can partition and boot cam and run them simultaniously

C, with programs like Crossover and Macindows you can run windows apps (at a very good speed) natively! (i personaly use it on the windows build of cubase 5 and project 64) and they run flawlessly.

 

the topper that really tips it for me tho, the battery life! i had a NETBOOK (advent 4211) with an extra 9 cell battery, and my macbook pro will exceed its battery life without fail and with 10x the performance and flair!

 

windows users (me included not 1 year ago!) hate macs. its a fact, but spend a real ammount of time on one, and try to enjoy it and you'l find that they're better... its the truth. the're expensive and unobtainable but they are truly great.

 

(hackintoshes cost no more than PC's remember... an theres snow leopard builds out now so you have no excuse not to at least try)

Macs are like PC's except for homosexual hipsters who like to spend more (of their fathers) money.

you're all entitled to your opinions i guess. but i'd bet a shit load of money that 99% of mac users were once windows users ;) try both. be open minded

I did.

 

Worst thing I have ever bought.

 

I realized my Macbook Pro can't do shit so I installed vista and realized it was way better than osx and THEN I realized that could have paid the 1/3 that for a computer already with Vista.

 

I guess it's a stereotype that Mac haters haven't had a Mac.
