This thread its as good as asking which is better?
black better or white?
AE or Losi?
Ford or Opel?
I've used macs since the original Apple II. Ive used all incarnation of the the Mac OS 7, 8, 9 and now X
Ive used all sorts of "backyard make your own frankenstein" PCs to High end Branded PCs such as Dell, Toshiba, HP etc etc with Windows 95, 98, NT, 2000, XP, Vista
Heck, Ive even own Mac Clones! (who remember the days of Power Computing and UMAX Macs!!!??
)
The problem with answering the argument of "which is better" is that there are people here who grew up with computing in the 80s and very early nineties. Macs and PCs were very very different back then and each played a specific role in the role of a "computer". These people (me included) will tell you a very different story comparing to new kids on the block who are just getting into computers now.
These days, my personal opinion is that Gates and Jobs are sleeping in the same bed together. Just one wears the cool black and jeans and appeal to the "creative types", the other one has to make sure he is the biggest geek coming out of Porkys.
Blame it on Global Capitalisation if you want... the end game is to capture BOTH sides.
some stuff works better than on windows.
some stuff works better on macs. it all depends on the software and how well it plays with the hardware.
oh. and your budget.
food for thought.
