Ok who here has honestley switched over from PC to Mac?
 

And did you stay with Mac or did you go back to PC? I only want people who have done this respond and give me they're honest opinion. I thinking of switching and want to know if I should or not? :thumbsup

I was going to buy a powerbook, but I just dont think I can get use to it :(

Macs are just cute toys that you can't do any "real" work on.

Thats what I considerd on getting, 17 inch :thumbsup

I hear what you are saying, but why does the music industry, graphic artist and editing people use it? Or the whole entertainment industry in whole?

Maybe years back they did. I do all my music and graphics and video on my PC why spend extra money for a mac?
I'd rather bust out my Amiga than fool with a Mac.

I moved from Windoes to a Mac 2 years ago and I will never go back. Most of the software I use runs native on the mac and some in virtual pc. Either way the Mac is much more stable, no blue screens, no virus issues excellent support. I recommend the Mac if your software will run on it.

One other benefit is that OS X is Free BSD with an Apple GUI so if you drop to a terminal prompt you are running Unix.

I bought a Dual Proc G5 and a powerbook the same day on a whim.. 4 months later.. I sold the G5 and kept the powerbook only cause its tiny and my gf likes it... Mac sucks.

blue screens?? hahaha...welcome to 1998 :/

I have 2 macs and 3 pc's...i use each one for their own specific purpose...I do my video editing on pc, music production on pc and mac..and graphic design on pc.....

they are both just as good as each other, the both have all the software needed....basically, with as powerful as each is, it just comes down to what you are more comfortable with

the ONLY thing i think mac has over pc in the long run is the virus/spyware thing....pc's get bombarded with shit, macs get none

as far as stability, that is all the past...the workstation I am on right now runs windows xp professional and it has been up for almost 4 weeks straight with not one crash or one bit of slowdown to it

there is no mac or pc is better debate anymore, there can't be...they are both great and it all boils down to what you like better

oh yeah, hey danny, what ever happened to you with my buddy man....he was out there wanting to hang out and use all your girls man...LOL...you never called him back

yo Danny, all I can say is I couldn't create and support FTV if I had a Mac.

you are an idiot sir.

care to elaborate?

I am thinking of switching too since all I ever do now is video editing and work with Photoshop.

Sorry Bro, I talked to your boy and he seemed like a very cool person. Told him i would call him the next day and recieved a call that my Uncle had been killed in a stabbing in prison. Kinda put everything off until this past week.

Lesson to all.....Prison is bad don't go there :( He would have never been killed if he didn't put himself in that situation, thug life isn't the cool life :thumbsup

I did this past summer. I love my Macs (4 of them now). I can honestly say that I still keep 3 PCs around because there are some programs that just aren't yet available on Mac.

Also, it's a good idea to see how your sites look for the majority of the world out there. :)

Why not?

woah shit...that sucks dude

i will tell him to hit you up next time he is town....at the very least I know he wants to use some of your girls

Not if you have a G5 Dual processor. You can do anything on that.

Hey Rob hows it going? Thanks for the advice, I'm just tired of my pc crashing and all the freeze ups. Maybe you can give me a call and let me know what I can do to better prevent this :winkwink:

What's up with thos Celeste and Holly pics? Post some :thumbsup

That would be awesome, thanks Jace :winkwink:

Pc To Mac
 

I did it a few years back cause I heard it was a superior machine for video encoding and I unplugged my pc. I forced myself to use the piece of garbage and it was the most painful two months of my webmastering career. I ended up selling the damn thing on crapbay.

Too many steps. For example to do a simple printscreen, I had to make a cheatsheet for....it is literally 4 or 5 keys....retarded.

I remember those propaganda commercials too: " I am a Unix Sys Admin but when I get home from work I use a G4"----I almost pissed myself when I saw that commercial.

I WILL NEVER EVER EVER EVER GO BACK TO PC'S.

i went mac 2.5 years ago, and will never return

die microsoft

long live OS X and steve jobbs

powerbook 17
powerbook 12
powermac g5

I used to have Macs and switched to PCs and for my next purchase I'm going back to Mac. The main reason for me is that there are no viruses on Apples.

Indeed. The idiot said no work can be done on a Mac, eh? Wonder if he's watched any Hollywood produced movies lately?

I love your sig. That's awesome

I love it too! Redshoe made it for me.

Fuck it always seem like it comes out 50/50 like Jace said it depends what you want. I'm tired of the viruses the crashes having to reboot, it gets fucking tiring.
