In all fairness, my windows machines rarely if ever crash either. I just switched because I despise vista.

I didnt say it ran photoshop bad I said it ran slower than my duocore e6600 machine with 3gb of ram does. We ran some batch photo actions on both, and mac was slower than my machine.

Think that is the exact machine. Why would I waste my time making up something about a mac? I gave my opinion on macs after using my partners. its not like Ive never used different Os's and spent time trying out different stuff. Ive dual booted linux, ran every windows OS since 3.1, ran basic on my TRS 80 Model III. Built my own machines since 97 or so.
I was using the same applications I run in windows. Other than Had to mess around to get an ftp client, had to mess around to find an icq that worked.
Can you find apps that WILL work in mac and do the same as ones you use in Windows? Yes. Is it worth the hassle? Is it worth the extra cost for the machine? No. Not in my opinion. You can hate windows, but just dont tell me that Mac is the pristine answer to all that is computer. It isnt.
Btw the batches we ran in PS were Raw images files right from the camera, and used them on both. Running filters and actions we run on all our pics in windows and mac. Windows was faster.
