[QUOTE="theCybe, post: 1763414, member: 558105"] To the above post, if caps are necessary - you haven't done your homework, sir; What's afoot with Macintosh now is Intel processors, which will execute [drumroll] UNIVERSAL BINARIES. So now software developers need only develop one set of code, thereby eliminating the cost of developing for multiple platforms. Regarding the right click nativity; The mighty mouse is now standard with new macs and right-clickable; I agree, holding option to click is dumb. And to calm everybody down (christ people) the PC platform is great too; I also used to build them, there /is/ a greater aftermarket, there /are/ more choices, they /are/ easier to upgrade, software /is/ easier to pirate, and it's great fun to buy a new case for the ****ed thing, stick neon lights in there, and cut a big hole in it and paint it with whatever. But I've never met a PC that didn't crash. Even the ones I built and stripped every useless Service out of. I've underclocked PCs and STILL had them crash. And yes, a hundred-and-four Microsoft Sony Xplods might get you 154.5 on the TL, but you can do the same with a single Apple RE MT. [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif[/IMG] The PowerMac is $1999, the iMac is $1199. Make your own life choices, but be not ignorant to the alternatives. I'm using a PC now, on an MS Exchange server, and it's getting the job done. But I wouldn't hesitate to set it on fire if it would net me a Mac Mini. PC Pros; Upgradable! Customizable! Cheap! Apple Pros; Intuitive! Modern! Productive! [shrug] Show me a PC with four processors on independant gigahert busses with firewires, wireless, bluetooth, dvd burners, the whole shebang for that price. And I'll show you a Mac for that price that will run Windows too. Oops - I already did. [/QUOTE]
