Firefox is what I'm using right now and my dad is computer programmer so he knows what's the best. IE is sooooooo slow and virussy.you can't hack or nothing i got norton
kaspersky.Bless you.
Saying your Windows is safe because you have Norton is like saying you're safe from a poison gas attack by putting a plastic bag over your head.

Fun games take up too much space anyway, I'd rather just play random internet games or use my wii. Although, I downloaded Battle for Wesnoth and have been having fun with that.
The 1 platform works on Mac now..... FYI to you NEVER VIRUSSY NEVER POPUPPY NORTON USING windows users! 8)I made it better.
The Steam platform works on Mac now..... FYI to you out of date, uninformed, adware over-run, malware ridden, virus buried windows users :P

Yeah, that IS a step forward for macs but, theres still FAR more games on Steam for PC.
Why the debate over gaming? Computers are far more useful for other thingsUsefulness is relative. ;)
The funny thing to me is, I always hear mac peeps rave about their machine and how pc stinks. The funny part comes in when mac finally gets a program/utilities that pc had for years, they get excited and basically say "see, now I can do that so mac rules". To me, its like some one comes up to you and says that they just were able to make their dialup go twice as fast so they are the best choice :p.
Probably made no sence but o well.
On a side note- if you were that capable, you'd be able to manage more upgrades than you might think with a mac. I own a newer macbook pro, and have managed to upgrade the battery, DVD-drive, and hard drive myself without problems. Haven't worried about anything else yet.How exactly is limited upgradeability on par with near total upgradeability?

upgrade-wise.... if you buy a higher end mac, you won't have to upgrade for at least 5 years.

That is a brilliant idea: spend $3,000 on a computer every five years so I don't have to pay $100-$150 for a new component every year.
And then have your computer only last 3 years. Plus, there are so many things you have to purchase for software to give it what the Mac has.upgrade-wise.... if you buy a higher end mac, you won't have to upgrade for at least 5 years.

Yes, Two PCS with windows 7 (assuming we are talking alienware) WOULD be more expensive than a mac.it doesn't cost much to get windows7 with your PC
On a side note, I got a free iPod Touch with my Mac.well it is Boston...of course i went down to Rochester, MN and lost my sleeping bag so....btw if anyone who went to MN State knows who might have that i still want it back
On another note, I went to Boston with the iPod. While there, it disappeared...

And then have your computer only last 3 years. Plus, there are so many things you have to purchase for software to give it what the Mac has.
And what things do you think I need to purchase software for, to get the functionality I want?He probably is referring to video cards for game graphics, etc.; but video cards last a long time if all you care about is playing the game (and not necessarily having it on uber high graphics settings).
Software is subjective to what you're using the computer for. Mac has it all together, and in the long run might be cheaper. All the add-ons add up. On a side note, mine is a lappy...if I had a desktop, I might go with Windows. But the last Dell Lappy I had was not nearly as good as this one.I <3 my Samsung laptop with Windows 7.

I have More Than a Feeling that you went to see a Rock and Roll Band somewhere near Cheers. While there, you met a girl named Amanda who asked to borrow your iPod. She told you it was Smokin' hot, but then she disappeared when a crowd surfer bumped into you (you didn't have your hands up).
I'm afraid those things happen to all of us, so if I can give you any Peace of Mind, I'd say Don't Look Back and just "keep moving forward" (Walt Disney's words, not mine). You also may want to stay clear of Boston.

I bought mine for $1000.Software is subjective to what you're using the computer for. Mac has it all together, and in the long run might be cheaper. All the add-ons add up.

You still haven't explained to me what software I had to buy to make my $500 computer build plus $100-$150/yr in maintenance a more expensive purchase than a $3000 Mac (and I've tried to be fair and not list the top-shelf $5k versions).
I bought mine for $1000.
When did I say high-end? Plus, when I first "accepted" the $3000 ones, I wasn't arguing about price, I was arguing about quality.I bought mine for $1000.
You need to make up your mind whether or not you mean "high-end" when you say "high-end". $1000 is clearly not a high-end price for a Mac by a long shot, and when I gave a $3000 (not even a $5000) price point earlier, you accepted that for the purposes of this discussion.
virus buried windows users :PWhat are you talking about? Macs have viruses. Last time I used a mac it had this really bad virus that impeded all progress, it was called OS X.
When did I say high-end? Plus, when I first "accepted" the $3000 ones, I wasn't arguing about price, I was arguing about quality.
Example: Garageband comes on the mac. It's about $100-300 for a decent recording program.You're claiming Garageband is a decent recording program, your argument is invalid.
When did I say high-end? Plus, when I first "accepted" the $3000 ones, I wasn't arguing about price, I was arguing about quality.
In fairness, Jaeger was the one who originally made the argument to buying a high-end Mac. But if the argument is that you buy a high-end Mac to have something still relevant five years later, and that's the point from which I'm proceeding, I am forced to assume when you enter that same line of discussion that you are accepting the same premise that Jaeger and I were using. What I infer from that is a not-high-end Mac will not still be a powerhouse five years later, since that's what was required to push an upgrade back a minimum of five years.
I understand that not every Mac costs a small fortune; that's not a difficult concept to grasp. But likewise, not every $1000 Mac bought five years ago is going to run Batman: Arkham Asylum, either. I accepted his premise that you buy big to make it last longer between replacements, that only makes sense. What does not make sense is your claim that I have to replace my computer after three years (I haven't) or that I have to buy all kinds of software to get the functionality I want (I don't).
Buy a mac if you are running a business and need a server or are doing hardcore audio/video/photo editing.Why would you ever run a mac server while the Great Penguin still exists?
Buy a pc if you are doing anything else.
With windows, assume you start at a $1000 price point.
Over the course of 5 years, you upgrade it and buy antivirus at $150 per year.
You also likely have to upgrade the OS once during those 5 years, which runs you at least $100.
Cost for 5 years: $1350
With windows, assume you start at a $1000 price point.
No. $500. I told you. We just helped RR build one and I believe he splurged on certain components to get up to $700.QuoteOver the course of 5 years, you upgrade it and buy antivirus at $150 per year.
No. I pay nothing for antivirus or firewall. Avast + Comodo > pretty much every commercial product except Trend Micro.QuoteYou also likely have to upgrade the OS once during those 5 years, which runs you at least $100.
I have been using XP for as long as I can remember, and have no plans to upgrade any time soon.QuoteCost for 5 years: $1350
That is more than I have paid to keep my desktop in shape for the last TEN years.
ummm..... I was basing that on that you kept your software up2date (OS), that you paid $1000 (which i see was wrong), and this....You still haven't explained to me what software I had to buy to make my $500 computer build plus $100-$150/yr in maintenance a more expensive purchase than a $3000 Mac (and I've tried to be fair and not list the top-shelf $5k versions).
Ok, I missed the $500 price and now that I know you you run XP, I am curious of the specs of your system. I feel like I'm talking to someone with an outdated computer that is ignorant of recent technological advancements.... Please enlighten me
And no, I got no impression that we were talking about laptops versus desktops when the discussion was "Mac" or "PC" with no distinction regarding the form factor.
I assumed you were talking about desktops when you gave the $3000/$5000 price.... seeing as how with every single hardware upgrade possible a macbook pro can only cost $4500.
Apple wants to charge me an extra $400 for 4 GB of ram :c. I didn't know RAM was $100 per GB....
Only if you want fruit scented RAM :)Thats another thing! Macs are too hard to use. I spent an hour looking for the control key and didn't find it. Eventually I got hungry and pressed the apple key but it didn't give me an apple. So then I was controlless and appleless.
Worst of all, Norton couldn't get rid of the virus I mentioned earlier! I eventually fixed everything by buying a pc.

XP works fine. Vista, on the other hand...There is no Vista, there is only 7.
I don't have much experience with 7. I plan to, once I get around to getting it from my college's MSDN account.7 is basically what Vista was supposed to be and should have been. It has the awesomeness without the problems.
I'm well aware of that. I don't have any personal experience with 7 (can't afford, don't have time), but I've read plenty of reviews, etc. I did participate in the beta.Ah, sorry. My bad for misunderstanding.
I hear that it's fairly nifty. Both my laptop/desktop are due for a reinstall, I'm thinking of going 7 on desktop and Ubuntu on lappy.I have 7 on both my desktop and laptop, and I love it, so I can highly recommend having it on at least one of your machines. :P

That question is the heart of what I'm trying to get at here. I am told I need to buy all this other software to get my PC to do what I want, and I am trying to figure out what that software is supposed to be. Other than you assuming I should always upgrade my OS, no one has even suggested to me what that is supposed to mean.
Oh, i don't know. I didn't say you had to get other software.Ok, I missed the $500 price and now that I know you you run XP, I am curious of the specs of your system. I feel like I'm talking to someone with an outdated computer that is ignorant of recent technological advancements.... Please enlighten me
You assume because I passed on Vista and am in no hurry to upgrade to a required 64-bit OS, that I am ignorant of technological advancements? Can you explain why you came to that conclusion?
Your right that could have been worded better. Either, A. if you have a 64-bit system, UPGRADE TO 7!!! huge benefits. B. if you don't have a 64-bit system.... clearly a downside to your 10 year upgrade plan ;)
Apple wants to charge me an extra $400 for 4 GB of ram :c. I didn't know RAM was $100 per GB....Newegg wants to charge me $58 for 4GB.
Oh, i don't know. I didn't say you had to get other software.

I do a great amount with the Adobe Master Suites
Ladies love apple.Sadly, you're right. My roommate's lady friend that was over last night was fawning over my Affy Tapple.

There are too many pieces of software/hardware that don't have 64-bit versions/drivers that are reliable.QuoteI do a great amount with the Adobe Master Suites
Like this, for example. Since when is Adobe Master Suite packaged with a computer apart from some special bundle?

true, when 64-bit XP first came out I remember getting a copy cheap from a friend that does testing for them.... they hadn't yet made a driver for internet use.... FAIL
side note- I never have this problem with mac software :P
Oh, I didn't get CS4 with my mac, had to get it separately. but it runs it like a champ

CS4 runs like a champ on my XP desktop (Dell XPS 630i) as well as my Macbook Pro dual booted with XP.
Every time I opened CS3 on the Mac Pros at my last college, it took just as long for them to load up the program. I have yet to notice a significant performance difference on either platform. I prefer how it's laid out on windows however. I can't stand everything being in floaty windows (though I know they changed it so you can disable that in CS4 on macs).
And for the record, my two computers have the following:
-Dell XPS 630i -
2.4ghtz Core 2 Quad
Dual Nvidia 8800GT (512MB) cards in SLi
4GB RAM
1TB hard drive
19" 1440x900 Dell Monitor
XP Pro
-17" MacBook Pro-
3.08 Core 2 Duo
9600M GT (512mb)

500GB hard drive
