Aren't you witty.

Mac

I want a mac :(. Mainly for developing ipod apps, but i'm doing a graphics course next year (and for some reason) we are recommend to get a mac rather than a laptop (even though macs are less functional somewhat. I can't find a bastard under £500 though.

Anyway, what's it like?

It's quite random when i switch between spaces, Flash sometimes jumps to different spaces. Sometimes though the outer border of it will remain in the same place but the content (time line, stage, tools etc) will move to another space.

It's pretty hard too explain but i usually close an unsaved project so it comes up with a notification asking me to save and it usually fixes it.

Mac

I use 'em in our college computer room (since thats all they got). I don't understand how you delete things, such as folders. I click delete and it doesn't do it. IT DOESN'T DO IT!

I personally don't like Macs, I think they are too overrated. Its not like they are the best computer around. If I say "I prefer windows" I get like 50 people saying "WTF is wrong with you." and this is a college class.

Mac

I love my mac much more than my previous PC. Plus, from my experience, Mac users are a lot less dickish about their computers than PC users.

Got the 17" 2.9 MacBook Pro, Anti-Glare screen. It's a thing of beauty.

Or click it and Cmd+Backspace.

I find the opposite. Mac users are all "Hurf Durf, macs are better", then when i ask why nobody knows. Seriously, can anyone think why they are better (except for the UI), nothing pops into my head. Windows has more programs, more games, anything mac compatible has a windows version as well, but not vice versa.

I don't hate macs btw, i'm getting one.

Yeah Mac users do tend to be a bit "elitist", I don't think I really am... But personally I like Macs because they seem a lot quicker than Windows, Mac OSX has never crashed on me, the dashboard is a gret idea, plus Exposé & Spaces is fucking immense. I don't know I ever managed without F9 & F11.

I find that people that think Mac suck are to noobish to use any OS outside of windose.
All programs almost always have a mac version now or at least there's a mac program that does the same thing.
Only argument that ever seems semi valid is more games for the PC...but I can't remember the last time I wanted to play a game that wasn't for the Mac or a console.

All Blizzard games now come to the mac on opening day, and those are the only computer games outside of flash I ever play. (I hate Wow, is waiting on SC2) Anything else works fine on my PS3, but thats cause it's made to play games.

That's just my opinion, I use Windows, OSX, and Linux OSes... Always fun to not limit yourself to one system.

I want that.

I was thinking about getting the 2.4Ghz model, as I really dont need that extra .2Ghz for another $500 . The 2.6Ghz has another 256MB of video memory however, which I thought might future proof it a bit more. If im spending that much money on a laptop I might aswell pay another 20% and make it last for another year or two, right? Also means I can play the few games nicely :P
