PC vs. Mac

Faktor, you're funny. If for no other reason than the fact that you seem to be able to get in a heated debate and still not resort to spewing obscenities. For that, I salute you!//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/handclap.gif.0c301076f534e244f0460706894f19e0.gif

point is. u listed parts for a custom pc in attempt to out-do a mac. How about a pc that is made by a company in mass production...?

Yes because well built computers get BSOD ALL the time!
As a matter of fact, I don't remember my PC having a blue screen since um.. EVER.

You are an idiot.

i believe thats an obsinity(screw spelling:crap: )

Well, gimme a few and I will see if I can find a Dell. VoodooPc, Alienware and Falcon from Northwest aren't mass producers (each one of their computers are hand built with quality parts), so I won't even bother looking at their computers.
Brb with a "flippin sweet Dell setup" //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

Try to keep it Apples to Apples. Same specs!! Good luck, I already can tell you the Dell is gonna be around $1000 more!!

Guess I missed that one, but I've seen much worse from other people on this forum. So I guess Moron isn't so bad.

no quad core?

no 3 more vid cards expandable?

...it isnt capable of 16gb of ram

no firewire

so it doesnt live up to a g5?

 

[Megalomaniac 5,000+ posts]

I explained why it couldn't do quad core.
That IS a quad core GPU though. Notice it says 1GB NVIDIA GeForce 7950 GX2 Dual-GPU Graphics Card

That is a Quad core, double stacked dual core setup.

Since we are throwing around the words "AVERAGE USER" so much, your "AVERAGE USER" will come no where NEAR close to being able to utilize quad cpus and 16gb of ram //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Hey don't question me about the Dell, I just put it together.

Oh and that DOES have Firewire on it //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

this conversation can go on forever honestly i say its a mutual feeling for both of us

edit: it doesnt have firewire800

also im not just throwing out words, the g5 comes standard with that "capability"

The only Dell that compares to the Power Mac or Mac Pro is the Precision Workstation. You won't be able to come within $1000 of the Mac's price building one of those.

I can't find where it says if it has firewire, like I said large manufacturers don't give you all the specs so they can keep idiots in the dark, yes even Apple.
However, I am willing to bet it has firewire, simply due to the fact that most mobos that can run dual core setups have built in Firewire, especially non-server mobos.

All Apple G5's have firewire400 and firewire 800
