Mac is best for animation and design things there is quiet few univercities using macs for that and it is very stable plus now intle is on macs so u can run windows on them but i think your problem is mainly the operating system cuz microsoft is known for crapy Operating Systems.Comment

I've never NOT been able to find something I want. It may not be the exact same program from the exact same company, but there is always an alternative that is usually better than what's available on the PC.Originally posted by ffmihaiyou would have to search more for mac version of softwaresComment

Dave, you can buy one of the new Macs that have the Intel Chip in them. The best part about it is that you can partition your hard drive evenly and run a Widnows opperating system on one partition and the Mac Os on the other. So far i hear it works very well and people are not having any trouble with it.

I say it depends on what you want to do with your system.
If you want a video/graphical production work-horse, and don't mind spending 10-30% more every time you want to buy something that's related to your computer, then go Mac.
Otherwise, go PC.
It also probably bears mentioning that if you're even a bit of a computer gamer, definitely go PC.-D.

And add another mac vote for me. Been using them for years, most of those who continually say its hard to find programs etc, lack experience.
Theyve learned how to do things the ass backwards and in my mind 'hard way' that windows teaches people. After a fresh install of windows you have loads and loads of software you need to install just to keep your machine functional. No such headaces with macs. You should expect more

My macbook pro can play quake 4 and doom 3 jacked up to high settings without missing a beat, running on XP. When I'm done gaming i switch back to OSX ;).Originally posted by D_hodoughIt also probably bears mentioning that if you're even a bit of a computer gamer, definitely go PC.
New intel macs are actually great for all the current games, even though they might get a little outdated for the next gen of games on the horizon.ICQ: 284903372Comment

Examples of anything that is 30 - 40% more please... The phrase "You get what you pay for" comes to mind when buying a Mac.Originally posted by D_hodoughIf you want a video/graphical production work-horse, and don't mind spending 10-30% more every time you want to buy something that's related to your computer, then go Mac.
Ya, cuz Macs have never really been that well known for their amazing graphics...Originally posted by D_hodoughIt also probably bears mentioning that if you're even a bit of a computer gamer, definitely go PC.

I said 10-30% - and feel free to compare just about any mac computer/part/accessory with any pc computer/part/accessory for reference, bro.Originally posted by aicoExamples of anything that is 30 - 40% more please... The phrase "You get what you pay for" comes to mind when buying a Mac.
For what it's worth, I totally agree that you get what you pay for with Macs - as I said - especially if you're looking for a video/graphical production workhorse... they're the shiz-nit.
Hard to miss the sarcasm - but I'm thinking you're just not understanding my point: It's not a question of graphical quality, but rather of game avilability... for every game available on Mac, there's probably 30 or more available on PC.Originally posted by aicoYa, cuz Macs have never really been that well known for their amazing graphics...
Not sure why my post caused you to get defensive about Macs, man - I have all the respect in the world for them.-D.

They're both the same and do the same thing. Saying that macs are better for design is bullshit, they run photoshop just the same. That might have been true in like 1995 but not anymore.
I use both and Mac OS X is a lot nicer and easier to use than Windows and you dont have to worry about viruses and all that bullshit. If you like to play games at all get a PC.
I use my mac to do all my work (photoshop, dreamweaver, microsoft office, etc) . All these programs are identical on the mac and the PC.
I use my PC to play a lot of games and test the sites that i build.
There really is no difference other than how the operating system works.
So i'd say Mac's have the edge in that respect. If its about price PC's have the edge since you can build one yourself. But if you compare a high end dell to a high end mac its about the same price.

Fun? I guess it all depends if you like to tinker with hardware that might not match with each other or just pull the beast of of the box and run without issues.Originally posted by dialif you enjoy building your own computer and modding the FUCK out of it, then get a PC...if you want the standard out of the box computer that you can't have any fun with, then a macComment

I dont think those old rules of "mac's are only for the arty ppl" works anymore, mac's are for anyone. and specially those who got fed up with all this windows bullshit.Originally posted by majorbitchOnly buy mac if you're a designer/journalist. They're good for that. Don't buy their laptops though, go for the G5s. Macs aren't really good with gaming though, so if gaming is what you plan to do with your computer, get a PC. Actually build a PC, it's much cheaper :p newegg.com for the win.
even if you are into gaming, you can do that to. in a stylish way running windows straight from your brand new Mac Book Pro.
I have a G5 back home, and I cant wait to get back to my baby!Comment

Even if you're a designer you can do just as much with a PC. I used to have both at my old job and the mac barely got used. I used it for a boombox & safari to check browser compatibilityThe Print Foundry Co. - Design & Print Shop - ICQ: 371115529Comment
