 Topic: PC or Mac?
Posted: July 29 2010 at 13:39 |
I just switched to a Mac and I can honestly say it blows windows out of the water... What system do most people here use?

Both. I generally use Mac for the Internet and PC for software.

I have only ever had PCs, so that is what I use.

I use a mac now, but am essentially indifferent between the two, and have used both in the past.

I used to be a Mac man, but quite some years ago, when I was working on a magazine, I really was frustrated because I couldn't handle documents made for Windows. Always had to put up a lot of work converting them.
I still wonder if some day I should go back to Mac, though. Both soft- and hardware seemed to be superior.

PC, never touched a Mac. I don't have anything against them it's just that PCs run software that I use daily which doesn't work on Mac. After a while it does boil down to the devil you know.

Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

PC but only because that's what I have.  I am beyond hermit with technology. Honestly, I know this fierce debate, fanboyism, all this info. I dont know/dont care a thing about about PC or MAC

PC for me. Never really got into Macs, but they're OK.
Software versatility is much better suited for a PC, so that's why it especially gets my vote.

PC. I like Mac's but don't like Apple much. But that's okay because I was never a fan of IBM and really really detest Microsoft software.
Linux is the bees knees - I rather enjoy using Fedora with the KDE desktop (any OS that calls its music player Amarok can't be all bad  ) |

I like Ubuntu, even though I don't use it
It has the greatest start up music ever, and way better default games than windows

Been using Windows all my life (still running XP), but I'll be upgrading to a Mac sometime soon.
