Re: MAC or PC?

I'm an audio engineer and have been doing digital artwork for ages, so I generally use both. Though the excuses for using a Mac over a PC for most of my every day applications are much fewer than they were a few years ago. When I was in college the thought of running audio software on anything but a couple of Mac workstations was laughable at best. Times, however, have changed. I have quite a few PC's in the studio now, and ironically, with Bootcamp, I have quite a few Macs that double as PC's.

As a gamer, there is only one choice of platform, as even with being able to run XP on my G5 I'm still more inclined to do my gaming on my gaming rig.

Of course, there is the endless debate, but if you've been using both platforms as long as I have, you'd realize each has its perks and how neither is infallible.

Re: MAC or PC?

For gaming, I would go with a PC. For almost anything else, I would prefer a MAC. I think that they are manufactured to a higher quality.

Re: MAC or PC?

For gaming the PC, for widely supported apps the PC...for the operating system between XP and Mac OS X...the Mac.

Re: MAC or PC?

Mac's are better for professionals wanting a glitch-free platform for production and work. You can game with them, but... why?

I own a Macbook Duo, and run XP on it's Bootcamp feature. I do this to play Dawn Of War... which runs great, btw. Other than that, I have a 360 for games like Gears and Oblivion.

Re: MAC or PC?

There are some games in which Mac can't operate on. And besides, when I play games, I want to do it in the convenience of my room. Hence, I am more of a Desktop person.

Re: MAC or PC?

I have used a PC for practically ever. I have no problems with Mac, as a matter of fact, I am getting ready to switch over. Iam getting into animation in a very big way, so I need to have a system that can handle the graphics. I am also tired of the problems I have had for years with WIndows based PCs.

Re: MAC or PC?

I'm not a Mac trained engineer, so I use PCs
Having said that I almost exclusively use PCs for gaming, and Macs can't game.
So, like most people, I would have a Mac if it was for work.

I think everyone is into the Pc. But I'm about to purchase a mac for recording purposes. I heard those are better for recording music.

Re: MAC or PC?

I would like a Mac but I am used to the PC and my biggest problem is the cost. Macs are way too expensive for me, and PCs are easier to use because more programs I like to use are designed for PCs.
