Yeah macs and games don't go together, making them automatically suck. Plus I just don't like OSX at all. But I know you guys are all into your art and making stuff which I know macs are good for in that aspect.

Total hype probably created by Apple to sell more Macs. This is what I don't understand, Adobe programs work EXACTLY the same on both platforms so how is one better for design than the other? In fact on PC you have MORE options of available programs you can use ??? Now that Macs run an Intel chipset the only thing seperating them from PCs is the operating system and the lack of ability to easily upgrade a Mac.

My man! I have nothing against Macs and have used them extensively I just prefer PCs. Mac users are such snobs about something that is essentially quite similar :P.

Are you talking about Windows vs OSX, or "PC's" versus Mac Hardware. (An apple computer is technically a PC too but hey..)

What's wrong with Darwin/Unix?  :P

By the way, using them at work/school is totally different to owning one. I used one at school for years and didn't like it
cause we had windows at home for 6 years and i was used to it. Then i owned one and wasn't afraid to break it, plus i had access to
do what i want with it. That's when i actually learnt the OS. Until you own one and can make it your bitch and man-handle it all
day long and it will still make your fucking eggs, your relationship is similar to that with a prostitute. Sure, you may get down to
business with it, but it aint your lady.

OSX isn't just good for creative stuff, being built on Unix opens up the computer geek side a lot too.

@Graeme ~ Mac earned the reputation (at least) in the music world because it was always more stable. Granted, that's because
the different hardware configurations was very limited so problem solving was easy compared to windows, but results mattered.
Also apple is a hardware company so they could control how the OS interacted with the hardware a lot better. Just like Avid
and (ex) Digidesign who are the leading companies in Film editing and music creation.

Also, creatives wanted to just get on and use the stuff, in the early days windows was not as user friendly so those inclined that
way drifted to Mac and have become loyal.

p.s what the hell is this topic about? LOL

Do you mean.. a Mac? :P

The interesting thing about the PS3 TE sticks is windows users say they only work with certain chipsets.
I confirmed this running windows on a Mac that didn't have the correct chipset. Although booting into OSX
the stick DID work.. I checked it with Mame too. Its almost like you can just plug things into a mac with
OSX and it will work. Hehehe.

On a serious note, it must mean the PS3 TE thing can be solved with drivers. Someone on the windows side should
sort that shit out.

Yer the ps3 TE is shit bro. It does only work with certain chipset. I could never get it too work either with the drivers and shit.

Fucking dissapointed as cos i wanted to play GGPO. And your absolutely right, Windows shoulda sorted that sort of shit out a good couple of years ago......Or is it sony's fault? Fuck they're both cunts.

Whoa a lot of PC vs Mac stuff. Here.

I'm on the Mac side. I've never really liked PCs. PCs in general seem unintuitive to me. Actually my dislike for Microsoft products seems to be one of the main reasons I'm put off buying an Xbox.
