Windows is for sheeple. Linux is for people who are awesome. Mac is for anyone(except for the sheeple.)

Re: Mac compared to PC

Is this thread still going? Deary me.

I may as well say again what I said before.


All platforms have their plus points, and all have their minus points.
Try and balance your choice based on the points that are relavent to you, and you shouldn't go too far wrong.

The whole multimedia thing is pretty much a non-issue these days. I also think that everything that could be said has been said.

Theyre both pretty much as good as each other at everything they happen to do, graphics, coding or otherwise. I know a lot of graphic artists who use Windows, and a lot of coders who use Macs. Let the poor argument die, and get what you want to get. You like the look of the Mac and the feel of OSX? Buy one then. You prefer Windows and the ability to build your own rig? Get that instead. You want a more in depth, configurable and open OS experience? Run Linux or something of that ilk. These arguments seem to have no purpose other than for fanboys of one platform to slag off fanboys of a different platform.

And what's with all the stereotyping and blanket statements? 'Mac is faster' I doubt say... a core2 duo Mac will outrun, say... a corei7 PC system.
Not sure why I'm saying this again, fanboys will be fanboys and argue until ragnarok.

Re: Mac compared to PC

This thread is easily solved. Get a Mac and then get a copy of Windows 7. Use Boot Camp, and Voila, best of both worlds.

So I'm trying to convince my parents that getting a Mac is better. I actually want the new White Macbook. So if you can tell me what Macs are better at compared to a PC and why that would be great! And if anyone does have the new Macbook, can you tell me how good it is? Thanks. mini/smile

I would get a macbook PRO because they are better fit for video. If you are planning to use iMovie be prepared for dissapointment. Get Final Cut or stay with PC and get Vegas.

Re: Mac compared to PC

macs are shiny, therefore better. (alsso macs make video editing easier and run better. also they are not trying to take over the world.)

i must disagree. If you manage to download iMovie HD 6, the old version, there is no reason to get a snooty final cut type of software. Imovie HD rockss!

Re: Mac compared to PC

Macbook's are crap. They are cheapo laptops that can be priced at $999 because they are macs. They are one of the worst computers Apple makes. Spend the extra few hundred dollars and get a Macbook Pro they are way better and well worth the money if you have your heart set on at mac.

Re: Mac compared to PC

It looks like we've had enough Mac vs. PC fun for one brickfilming community.  Sorry to folks who may object to me locking this thread, but it has devolved into generalizations, jokes, and borderline spam.
