Still, Pax said something about how the graphics software is designed for Mac then ported to PC. I wonder how PC versus Mac would turn out if there were equivalent graphics programs designed just for Windows.

EH...that was intentional, as was 'yous'...I was being the belligerent childish brat

Essencay decides to remove the blinders for a second to be enlightened, though he still has his butt parked in front of a pc

I rest my case about graphics.


Curious....I missed the points you made that validated the Mac's superiority in graphics. I understand that a lot of the best graphic artists prefer, use or agree that Mac's are more capable machines in this area, but I would suspect that those folks have experience producing graphical content on both Mac's and PC's. Meaning I would be more apt to listen to the points an auto mechanic or someone in motorsports makes about a certain brand of car than I would the points made by a 16-year old with his first driver's license.

How well do Macs handle backwards compatibility with older software written for previous versions of their OS?

How reliable is Mac hardware in comparison to a PC built with brand name parts, not one of those generic under $500 machines?

JUst to add to my previous post, unless you're doing professional high resolution  graphics (where a 1 Gig image isn't a rare thing), you won't need a Mac. A lot of Mac artists I know actually have a PC at home.

I am really tired of this os war . Everywhere people have "Discussions" about this and they can be doing that forever. Why don’t you just use what you have and if you want to have a different interface just use ObjectDesktop in the case of the PC.

Also: I was reading at aqua-soft.org and when AndreasV released Avedesk, someone at that forum just posted that if he hasn’t seen Jaguar because the labels are not the same. Or in another forum, someone was complaining because mobydock didn’t come with the MacOSX icons and the same background. In these cases: If you want your PC to really look like a Mac, that’s impossible, they’re different OS’s

Instead, go and get a Mac. If you get a Mac, good for you but don’t argue with people about which one is better, each one has pro’s and con’s. If it fits your needs, good for you again. That’s it.

This is just my opinion.
