The big problem with most Macs (Imac specifically) is that it is an obsolete crappy laptop board and CPU.

To get something close to my PC desktop you would have to buy the Mac Pro with the 3 gHz 8 core setup and 8800 video. This would cost three times as much as my box and still wouldn't be as fast due to a slower memory bandwidth and the fact that my new motherboard supports PCI-E2.

I get 254 FPS playing CS: Source on my PC. It simply rocks.

I do like OS X... I love the way Apple does things. But their hardware is always crap.
