    Re: Windows Vs. Mac

    Mac SEEMS to run better because they made the computer for people that don't know how to do shit. The better term for mac is user friendly. Windows made vista to also be very user friendly, hence the "are you sure'(UAC) prompts. Performance-wise, you'd have to buy a 600 dollar windows based PC to compete with a 1500 dollar mac. Instead of going to mac and saying "oh this is easier", learn to use windows.

    Re: Windows Vs. Mac

    yeah i've done it, if your interested in doing it i can write up a tutorial (for pc and mac). i once had xp/ windows 7 / OSX / linux quad boot just for kicks on a 60 gb drive LOL

    lol i hate to admit it bcuz u make it sound so bad but you 100% correct. i completely turned off the UAC piece of s.hit though.

    edit: as for the chap that said pc for multitaking mac for graphics, you are on crack. mac has the worst graphics ever compared to a similar pc. and no im not pc biased cuz im writing this very post on a 8 core mac pro.

    put it this way
    pc is like a honda. unlimited amounts of mods, but can run into problems.
    mac is like a bently, not much you can do with it, just the basics.

    Windows 7 has to have soild specs... w/ them its a solid operating system.. Mac comes out the box with more than minimum specs so they always run extremely well. macs are more know for media production windows for a wide user friendly experience

    It depends on what u want to do with it. Both have their advantages and disadvantages.

    Windows FTW! Cheaper for the specs, more applications (especially if you know a couple of sites where you can get software for free :) ). BTW macs dont commonly get viruses causes no one bothers to **** up the 2 people who own a mac. As for web design, and multimedia, I don't get why people say macs are better when you can simply get sony vegas, adobe afteraffects, solidworks, maple 14 etc for windows. And you cant game on a mac. Especially on their notebooks (Cooling issues).
