PC or Mac

[Mapleboy86]

I have an OS X. I've used both PCs and Macs for pretty much my entire life, and can easily say Macs are better. My family had gone through 3 PCs before we bought our Mac. We've had or OS X for years. The only problem is the disk drive doesn't work *ahemsistercoughnudgenudgewinkwinkahem* so we got a new disk drive for free (b/c of warranty).

I don't like that macs have become a sort of fashion or status symbol.

PC for the Win. I mean, yeah, if you don't protect your computer, or go on bad websites or download random things, your computer will crash, but thats why you have to be smart! I do like iLife from Macs, but software isn't worth rediculously priced computers. For example, you want to edit photos and videos. You could be like, "I love iPhoto and iMovie!" But, I buy photoshop and adobe premier for around 100 dollars. You would be paying around 500 more for a mac. I have an AMAZING Labtop (which is a PC) and its worked perfectly for me. Great for games, great for software, fast procesor, amazing. PC all the way!

And also, to the people who watch the Mac commercials. Bashing the competition doesn't really prove anything =\

Wait, you got Photoshop for 100 dollars! Where'd you get that!?! They usually go for 200. Also, have you seen Microsoft's latest ads? Yeah, that's not bashing competition at all. The Mac and PC just shows Macs greatest features, and compares them to a PC's. I can speak from experience that these commercials stick to the facts.

LOL, do you know how much CS4 proffesional suite costs? Almost 2 Grand!

Anyways, I like mac better, but I use PC because it's cheaper.

^ Yeah, I know. Photoshop by itself usually costs between 200 and 400 dollars. If you want the whole suite, you'd better be doing design for a living. xD

Wow most people here are saying macs are better yet the poll is completely saying something else.

I'm guessing most of the voters have never even used a mac, so they just vote for what they use themselves. Of course, they can't defend their opinion, so they're not going to argue in this thread. Most mac users nowadays are people who were too frustrated with windows, so of course they do have an opinion on the subject.

Macs are popular in schools, but the real world uses pc.

I have used a mac, and they're just so dumbed down that they're no fun to use.

I like to build, tweak, and upgrade my computers. Can I do that with Macs? No.

My mac says hi.

Sure, it's no linux, but you can customize and add quite a bit.

I mean like this:

I want to be able to pick and choose what goes into it and not pay way too much for something I can't upgrade.

Macs are very customizable. Can't link to other sites, but I know a great one called OWC, and you can buy all sorts of RAM, drives of all sorts, and tons more, so don't tell me you can't customize a Mac.

Several different sites, I resized them to 128x128, added a black outline, and I set them using Candybar (manually making and setting them is quite a drag). I could send you the files, I guess, if you really want them. I'm not too pleased with them myself just yet.
