Come on, don't be shy, stand up.

I am not the only person with a shiny powerbook here, am I ??

Johny Traffic · 07-08-2004, 05:00 AM

I have 3 PC's and an Imac I keep around because it looks nice

PrivateIvy · 07-08-2004, 05:00 AM

nah, I don't think so....but you might be the only guy who used his full name instead of a nic

The only thing that is stopping me from going mac is software.

Everything I code for myself is in VB/VC++ and some important things I use are Windows-Only.

I understand there are emulators, but I really wouldn't put much faith in them working seamlessly without tweaking all the time.

I work with audio using mac.

digidesign pro tools set up, in totally mobile flight case with dual 180 gig drives and back ups. even the monitor sits in the flight case.

my buddy rents his mac out for 700$ a day for musicians to record with.

i never see people do that with a PC ;)

Cory W · 07-08-2004, 09:25 AM

15" Powerbook G4, 1.5 Proc.

Fastest thing I have ever used.

that rig is so overpriced it is outright theft... the crummiest and oldest of the entire G5 line, w/ a display that has already been replaced w/ a much better model that actually matches the G5's... dont buy that..

joshuawk · 07-08-2004, 09:58 AM

can ya show me one that is a better deal g5 ?

i know nothing of macs but am buying one this week

hows this

Big Cheese · 07-08-2004, 10:02 AM

My iMac just broke down. The fan stopped spinning only after making a bunch of noises and it smells like burning electronics inside.

I'm kinda hoping it goes up in flames. Never had a monitor/computer do that before.

this is another one i cant
find much cheaper dude

Azlord · 07-08-2004, 10:04 AM

Do all my work on a Mac. Either my Dual 1.8 G5 or my 15" powerbook. Still need a PC to check how designs look on IE 6.

joshuawk... now thats a nice machine. are you checking the "special deals" section over at the apple store for refurbished machines and such though? ebay is not really the best place to buy a secondhand mac (good place to sell them at high prices though!)... i bought a dual G5 from Apple as a refurb early this year and it arrived looking brand new in the box..

joshuawk · 07-08-2004, 10:08 AM

heh i can barely tell the diff between the two..
ebay has a lot of scammers im sure.

but this url isnt a bad machine?

ill just get that then rather than fucking around

ill check the apple store quick though

Vitasoy · 07-08-2004, 10:13 AM

I think they're a waste of money.

joshuawk · 07-08-2004, 11:23 AM

chupacabra

will you tell me what the diff in the 23" inch cinema displays
is and show me a good on on ebay

thanks

loverboy · 07-08-2004, 11:32 AM

just too expensive compared PC's that i have

mattyboy · 07-08-2004, 11:42 AM

Great monitors, dual cpu's, nice looking etc, etc...

...but they still come with a one button mouse and no scroll wheel

joshuawk, the white/clear plastic displays are all cancelled, they were replaced recently w/ the new models that are made out of aluminum just like the G5's and Powerbooks, don't invest any serious money on one of the older models, their value will drop seriously fast... i don't think the new displays have made it to ebay, the last place i would ever buy something like a Mac..

joshuawk · 07-08-2004, 12:17 PM

i like the way the clear ones look

chupacabra · 07-08-2004, 12:22 PM

the new displays are all 16ms response time, much faster and better refresh rates than the older models... i think the old kind look like crud thoguh compared to the new, the white and clear models looks sculpted out of solidified cum to me..

infectd · 07-08-2004, 12:56 PM

I have an ibook I use when Im on the go.

quiet · 07-08-2004, 12:57 PM

i do everything on a 17 inch powerbook

I have a 15in TiBook and use a usb mouse that has 2 buutons and a scroll wheel and the right click functions work fine.

Panther is a slick OS and kicks the shit out of anything Windows is doing.

and yes, I still have two PC's also.

M_M · 07-08-2004, 01:05 PM

I don't ever see myself making use of a Mac. Some feel confortable with them, but thats only because thats what they are used to.

M_M · 07-08-2004, 01:09 PM

Ipod was what saved Apple's ass. Soon that sector will also be owned by Sony anyway.

I don't see a bright future for Apple unless they drop their prices.
