You are so '90's, Silver. Get with the times. PC is it. It's here, it's the gear, get used to it! (I heard something like this at the mustache parade...)

ill say it once the G5 is the second comming. these Emac are the shit. bargod u would love one. IF u are like me and dont know computers. i love mac!

i would love to crank up my mac running a movie and dl movies and running the thing to the hilt. all ur pcs would crash if they tried to compete with mac!! dont believe me go to the mac store and check it out for yourself!
mac king of puters
pc the homeless kid that cant get a job

I would be lying if I said I didn't want a mac for a secondary computer...but I would never give up my PC

Don't know if this debate will ever end....one of the few in history that may not be resolved......

Ford vs Chevy
Giants vs Jets
Yankees vs Mets
Abortion vs Pro Life
Democrats vs Republicans

MAC vs PC.....although I think the previous may find a common ground before these two!!

if u bought a mac ur puter would collect dust. (except for vent. and why is it taking so long for flagship to finish vent....grrrrr)

The cost is the main reason for me to stay PC. My brother needed a workstation for video editing. Once we priced a badass Mac, but after a bunch of memory the price was going to be around $30,000. He ended up buying a custom Dell for about $7000.00. This was several years ago. I guess the prices have gone down. I like them; the Mac has many advantages, but overall, especially if you build your own computers, I'll stick with the PC. I wish someone would give me a Mac!

i know little about puters but in the video and 3d stuff mac is the supreme being. its like MAC is Jesus and PC is like ..... the UN all confused and such. 30 g's for a mac? i priced a mac custom online and the most i could spend is like ....8500. i screwed around with 3D software, for mac it is the best

Yeah for video stuff mac is better is the way that the bus system is designed on it. ML thats a lot for a video editing machine but like you said it was acouple of years ago. You can get a kick-ass one for just a few thousand now.

Hey Mona you been staying up late too much (and apparently drinking when I talk to you as well) -- those numbers are way off. XYZ Factor is right you can get a kickass for a few thousand. Most of the people in my industry (advertising, film/video production) use the MAC G4 laptop. When I priced one out (without getting into details) it was around 8K ++ (base models were under 4k). Software for video (2k) not included. This Dell XPS Gen 3 I just got is totally adequate but not near as good for $4400. All things considered I would have rather had a Mac -- but, besides the money, I just didn't want to start over with the software purchases and renewed learning curve. I've had two Macs -- they are very good -- definetly the best.

D Silver, how are they for gaming?

I meant to add my support for the consideration of other rifle sites, too. I saw the files in missionary and thought they looked like fun to try.
The computer/money thing got me sidetracked. Sorry.

I stand corrected. You know the facts!

ML

I was referring to the computer you bought a couple of years ago, not your new one, not that it matters much. Christmas vacation, 2 weeks, yep, I've overdone it.

good just waiting on the new ventrilo realease, flagship has yet to give any details to when its comming. guess he is working on 3 plats right now and was having trouble getting usw to the mac. he wants it to be a suprise to the world when he release's the mac client. though r. wilco has a mac client out and team speak well they are useless i hear.... but all in all the mac is awesome for gaming. only the good games come out for mac and ussally a month behind PC. ummm i would suggest going up in memory then how they come stock. i have pc133 sdram @ 256mb. i need more memory, just waiting to go back to work for that. all in all i dont think there is any true diffrence in the gaming for a mac. for mohaa there are few cheats and hacks for a mac. also no missionary as it is but there is a anticheat that i run so do most mac'ers. there is a great place to play multi player games for mac called game ranger. they have their own communication and have it so you can det up ur own game (server type) to play and practice on if u want to. the comm cost money like 50 a year but it would be worth it. (if i didnt play with a bunch of dummy pc users.....damn {MOB} got me hooked.

I know....my ex-wife wants me to get help....I think she's looking into the legal possibilities of divorcing me AGAIN.

However, she did buy me COD:UO
