raptor is perfectly right guys... i am a mac user, converted from pcs, but i like both. for video editing, face it, pcs are built s*** and are less fast, but this guy has the answer:
I actually love the interface in MAC computers and I even use MAC skins for Opera and Winamp. I would be a MAC user if they didn't have compatability problems and the prices weren't too high. Believe me, a 2Ghz MAC is VERY strong!!! That's because Wnidows and MAC do not use the same source code (I think that's what it is called in English) .
But I'm not feeling ready to invest in a MAC because I will not be able to find software and (I think that's very important) games. Let's not argue about Apple and Microsoft. He is free to buy whatever he wants. So are you.
pcs started off first, bill gates was clever, he still is i have to admit, and apple cant catch up now in terms of prices and compatability, because pcs work pretty much everything but theyre not as clever internally, no where near as much as macs. i use a g4 17" superdirve like someone said, it rocks.
and camclub, just shouting out that pcs are better and just pretending to be happy not listening to any more is the kind of argument that we all liked to do in grade 4.. refusing to face the facts.... apples are pricey, often uncompatible, but they are better built, work better, are more reliable, more user friendly and simple, dont often crash... and for us video guys they are the most efficient solution.
and about the mouse, dunno who said it, there is absolutely nothing bad about the one button, if youve ever used a mac youll know that everything is interfaced so that you dont need it.. and apples mice use a more advenced design then all your microsoft and 'supercool logitech' which jam every five minutes, a more confortable fit, better optics, and even if you dont care they reduce greatly the risk of all illnesses like carpel tunnel syndrome.
For the mac users, how many of you have microsoft office? See.
eeeer microsoft office for mac, ever heard of that? i find it works better on mac than pc microsoft office LOL but thats just me, all the stuff above isnt
i dont hate pcs, im not saying macs are superior. But why do you have to rant on about fake facts like pcs are faster etc... whats the point? sorry for the long post.
-Cause i could just as well go and live in the hills, George...
-You could just as well go to hell. Shut up and sleep.
