It seems that you are OBVIOUSLY overlooking all of the advantages of owning a Mac. | |

PC - Games, upgradeable, cheaper, more variety of os.
Mac - Stable, easy to use

Could you explain this one? Ignoring extremely minor not-so-usable-in-modern-situations random operating systems, the numbers are fairly equal. WIndows won't run on a "Mac", and MacOS won't run on a "PC", but otherwise, things are often available for both CPU architectures. BSD, Linux, and less major operating systems can run on both, meaning there is a reasonable variety for either architecture.

Well, there are some Linux distrobutions for the Mac, but not all X86 distros have a Mac version. I just downloaded a Linux distrobution optimised for older computers and this particular distro doesnt have a Mac version available. Since many linux distros dont have a mac version which takes away one of the greatest aspects of linux - wide variety.

Wow this thread has been a blast to read  I am a hardcore PC user by heart, but my job requires me to fix Macs as well. All I can say is the G5's are truely amazing work. My jaw dropped when I saw the inside of the case and its design. I just setup about 10 G5's the other week and 15 Dells and the G5's were just far to HUGE/BULKY/HEAVY..it sucked ***! lol. Let me tell you though it is going to take a LOT to damage one of these G5's. I dropped one off my cart when I was pushing it to the new user and amazingly nothing happend (thank the lordddd it wouldve been my ***).
About the only thing that makes me dislike the Mac platform more and more is the cocky users espicially the ones who just have a lot of daddy's money whipping down a whopping $5,000 for a top of the line G5 and bragging that they have a 6GHZ (LOL) cause they got dual 3.0's or sumthin..sad sad. | |
