I think it's dumb to pay so much for something that doesn't even run 1/4 of all the apps and games that's made for Windows. You will get better hardware for the same money if you go for a PC.
If you want something secure and stable, just buy a PC and install Linux or FreeBSD.
WHY A FUCKING MAC?
Because the casing is made of aluminium? Give me a fucking break.

FYI, Apple hardware will run OSX, Windows, Linux and FreeBSD without any issues. I have a PC that runs OSX...but it wasn't easy getting it properly configured. So, technically I can run all that you mentioned AND MORE.
As much as I loathe Apple the company, I do use their products.

I agree. I do use the cinema 30 inch displays and love them..
from what i see, it is typically the other way around. all of my friends who have no idea how to use a computer get macs because they think they are virus proof. They actually believe that. Also, you have to take into consideration the amount of people that use PCs compared to MACS. Old school MAC users, maybe. They know MAC very well. Most PC users are just people browsing the web. 12 year old kids, 90 year old seniors. Ofcourse you are going to get more users who dont know what they are doing, because of the # of users and the difference in audience. But things are changing now. I know a lot of retards who have no idea the first things about a computer. They have MACs because they are cool and dont get viruses.
I use both on a regular basis and consider my opinion to be greater than anyone else...
My Macbook Pro I bought 5+ years ago out performs the laptop (of equal price) my gf bought 2 years ago which is now on its way out the door. She uses that now and I have a Macbook Pro that a company bought me about a year ago that I use for business.
However, when it comes to doing stuff in Excel and using multiple monitors, my desktop PC blows the Macbook Pro away. I've connected a PC laptop to multiple monitors in the past but seems like the Macbook just doesn't integrate as nicely.
The only thing I have not tried is a Mac Pro (tower) yet but don't feel like spending that much on something I would probably not like.

yeah a few programmers that I know switched to mac after the UNIX OS came out, other than that I always hear from people with both that basic numbers crunching goes a bit better with the pc... I know a shooter that dumped all his PC stuff because he thought everything would run better with mac... it doesn't. photoshop is just as probelmatic on the mac as it is on pc... in fact only issue I every really have is adobe ps... other than that no problems at all really
Mac users are like stupid Red necks who can not see past their own nose.
PC is so far ahead of MAC it's not even funny. I have a new 12 core Mac Pro tower and it SUCKS!
I have two custom built PC's that kill the cool looking mac.
You can put glitter and ribbons on a pile of dog shit, but it will still be a pile of dog shit.
Build a PC and only install a corporate version of Windows 7 professional, which is stripped down and does not have all the lame bullshit that comes with a store bought version.
My Editing machines NEVER go online, so that whole virus thing is BULLSHIT mac lovers.
There are no i7's in the new Mac Pro towers. WTF?????

mac users are 100% more likely to pay a 40% premium for 2 year old technology than PC users
I am very happy with my new macbook pro (with NEW intel sandy bridge cpu). No regrets here! A bit more money, yes - But Hey, I´m in porn, I can afford it

mac users also have larger penises, both length and width. Give me a few minutes and I'll find the link.

Brilliant!
Mine is a month old and has already been into have the HDD replaced.

You had the HDD replaced or WANT to have it replaced? I do not nave a SSD on mine, cost too much atm, but will probably switch when prices are a bit lower.
My brother in law is a hardcore MAC user, and I fail to understand what makes a MAC better? Their shit looks great, truth be told all I ever see is a monitor and keyboard - and my flats screen monitor looks pretty cool. Seems to me MAC is slower, costs more, and limits what software I can use.

HDD failed. I was in and out of the store in 20 minutes, but had to go through restoring my apps and what not.
I didn't get the SSD either, but after this wish that I did.

Dude you are so wrong. Mac's are great machines. I too resisted the urge until I finally had to "cave" to buy a mac to get long battery life. Since then In the past 2 years I have been slowly swapping our PC's for Macs. They are great.
I have been with apple since 1997, when i bought my first 120mhz 8500. I just prefer them, but I'm not all like "If you use PC, your a dumbfuck". To each their own. I do think the article rubs it in a little bit.

Are you interested in selling your Mac? How long did you get it and did you get the warranty? Im willing to take it off of you.
Maybe.. I am not sure if I wanna sell it.. It is only a year old
I get content from guys who save the HD videos as some weird mac file and PC can not see them so i need a Mac for when i get stuff from other Mac editors.

Let me know if you do. I would be interested.
At the end of the day, I use what works for me and has been working for me since I have been shooting and editing porn. I may have paid more, but at the end of the day, i'm happy with my choice and have zero regrets.
I do think that Mac people over all are a strange bunch.

I would be curious as to the format of this file. All video is encoded as .dv Other movie formats such as .m4v, .mov, .mpg, etc are easily exportable on a PC

Yup that is the file format, Premiere does not see it or open it.
I have CS3, CS4, CS5 Master Suites. .dv will not open in Adobe.
