Re: I've joined the dark side!

Congrats man! Sweet machine..

I don't think i can justify the price on them.. they don't do anything more than a normal PC running Windows or Linux

I see your point and felt this way before. I'm absolutely not going to say they're not more expensive than a normal PC with Windows but I think the gap is exaggerated.

First of all, you can't compare each machine on paper. Mac OS X requires far less system resource than Windows so a Mac on paper that looks inferior in hardware may actually out perform the comparison Windows machine. I prefer to look at 'performance' not 'hardware'... afterall, that's what matters right?

A friend bought an amazing PC recently (8gb ram with 24 monitor and the rest of the bells and whistles) and sure, the price he paid was less than an iMac... but not THAT much of a difference. Performance wise they'd be identical.

Re: I've joined the dark side!

Late night post, didn't take. Just got an IMac for Final Cut Pro and overall the OS and other software have been easy to use and comprehend. Tend to keep MAC usage to work related projects but have more soundcloud pages saved on it than I can remember. Another convert, bring on the IPad 2 LOL.

Re: I've joined the dark side!

I think till a mac can do this, no need to join the dark side. (BTW can run OSX in a virtual machine faster than you can run it on actual hardware...)

Re: I've joined the dark side!

hah..i love my mac but i had to put fucking parallels on it a few months back to run some shady software. it's cool to have a computer in a computer, but i think it's better to just get a VPS for like 20$/month
