    Well I have to disagree on a couple of points.

    1) Vista has its place and Microsoft isn't going anywhere.. do you realize MS could buy and sell Apple and only take a slight price hit?? They are 2 different players in an overall small world.

    2) I am all for Apple and OS X ( I use it daily ) but keep in mind a lot of what is in Leopard is nothing more than glassy updates..

    3) Most important point, I am tired of DRM, locked phones and them crying because ringtones should cost $99.. it is sad and they are going to lose in the long run.. just watch.

    oh and I have an iPhone, so I can bitch :P

    I have always been using Windows and I think it's user friendly so I am sticking on it.

    Mac is a better user experience overall, but Windows does have some software that is specific to that Operating System. Personally, I like my Mac's.

    I have a Poorman's Computer (PC). I have learned to live with it, Great for business, but probably works half as good for Art. I guess it is like VHS and Beta. Mass production= better price.

    Style, I think more to the point is not that u can't find the same software or equal to run on a mac, it's the upgrade costs that will kill ya. Crap, apps like cinema4d and vue and cs3 cost more then the macbook pro, and it was a killer considering i had all that in pc form. and those things don't run very well in virtual spaces, regardless of what the marketing hype tells ya. but after being pc-bound for almost 30 years it was time for a change. The new macintels are just a blast to run, albiet not without the usual shoddy workmanship inherent in most hardware these days. Maybe if they gave those chinese more holidays and better burgers...
    cheers!

    there the same especially now that macs have intel cpus, i think macs are a simplified os that is more stable.
    the only thing a pc has on it is software compatibilty.

    but if u are going to usea mac for work like designing and web sites that arnt hardcore ASP then you are set.

    i have both and never us my pc always on mac!
