Why is nobody open to new things.

Why are you guys still arguing about this? Do any of you actually think you will be able to change the opinion of others? Since when is it a crime to like Pc or Mac? I own both and each have their own strengths and weaknesses. If you like Pc then great, if you like Mac then great, whatever floats your boat. Let's not make enemies over what OS you like.

its not about changing anybody, i just find it hilarious to see people squirm when you disagree with their opinion. Its all good fun, were all friends at the end of the day, but some get far to serious though. the point of the conversation is why more people dont venture into the new mac based computers. no reason to go all therapist on us dr phil.

both systems are nice, i dont mind microsoft, but for the money, they could do a lot of obvious things better. and yes, mac has its weakness when it comes to gaming and customizeabiliy, but hearing opinnions is the point of the thread. thats why the name of it is a question.

Sorry, I buy laptops.

Sorry, I buy laptops.

im open to laptop graphics. thats actually a really good question, which would you think is best for rendering?

pain in the ass mainly. they change nothing, and i can go weeks without hitting my update button. the fact microsoft sends them out so often, menas they clearly arent testing their product enough before release. vista is a very very good example.

You've just proven how little you know about computers.

Sorry Toph. 06 is right. I like Windows, it does what I want in ways that MAC OS won't support, but Microsuck is notorious for rushing products to market too quickly and not running them through all the proper testing first.

notice the prices I pay and that I consider them disposable........ got no idea what graphics they even use ...... prolly shared video...

if you want to render something I would be using networked I7s.......

That kind of depends. Engineers prefer PC's, graphic designers prefer Macs.

All the engineering places I have worked at (four) used PC's to run Autocad and/or Inventor.

I see that a lot of people who only use one hate the other and that the people who use both say that they're not all that bad. They both have their weaknesses and strengths. I will say this though. I do love the prices of pcs. I built mine for cheap. Bought a case, and power supply and my brother gave me his old computer parts(which were top of the line 3 years ago you gotta love brothers that are majoring in computer science that are never happy with what they got) that he built. Now my computer is running like a champ.

Damn I didn't know I had a little brother. LOL. Your older brother sounds like me, I just did the same for my parents. My parts were probably top of the line 3.5-4 years ago. Still working fine but I've been wanting to upgrade for about 2 years. I was holding onto the money too tight though and wouldn't spend on anything but upgrades here and there when stuff was on sale. Finally let go and built a decent mid range system, and put my old parts in a case for my parents. Ironically I'm in tech school right now working on an IT Professional Associates degree, when I finish this next year I'll probably be transferring to a local college to work on a BS in computer science.

Best of both worlds. Triple boot my desktop and eeepc with Winders for games and only games, and Snow Leopard and Slackware for everything else. No need to pay Apple extra for the hardware just to have the right to use their OS (which I'm a fan).

But to M$'s credit, most people with screwed up Winders boxes have probably clicked things they shouldn't be, with about 2x as much processes running as their should be.
