man ur getting more and more fucking annoying each time you post something. just shut the hell up and use ur time modding instead. dont need your conservative opinions anymore. its like listening to a 60 year old teacher or something.

DigiNut is one of the few people on here that make it worthwhile. I would rather read posts from a "60 year old teacher" than some whiny bitch that likes the sound of his own voice.

im not the one whining here, im saying my opinion on windows xp and then this know-it-all-dude comes saying i have no idea what im talking about. whatever man, u can all live in ignorance, not my problem.

wasn't talking about you. But he is right in that you tend to state your opinion without elaborating. For example, you sated that mac destops are shit and that I don't have a clue yet you don't say why which makes your post kinda irrelevant.

i might not be good at explaining what i mean, but in this case it wasnt really any point as diginut compares osx to windown 3.1. thats when i say discussion is pointless. when it comes to the mac desktop i stand by my meaning of it firstly because its a desktop (i dont like desktops at all for numbers of reason) and because of its price. music production isnt really that demanding and u dont really need alot of computer power if u know what your doing. therefore id rather go for the iMac which i currently think is the best daw avaliable atm (price considered always). No noise, no dust collecting cable-mess, big phatt screen, stabile, easy-backup, easy-reinstall OS without alot of bugs and updates. big enough HD, CPU, RAM. Lots of driver support for audio-devices etc, runs industry standard software. Sorry if im not explaining myself good enough but the stuff i say is rarely hard to get. If diginut want to keep up his PC-wizardry then thats up to him but im not gonna watch him trying to fool others into that. Its all about keeping your mind on the music and not every week security updates, registry-failures, sudden blue-screens, faulty drivers, virus-progs, antivirusprogs, servicepacks etc etc. Who needs security for making music anyway?

I am on a PC and have had to reinstall Ableton and Reason maybe twice in the four and a half years since I've had it. I don't even remember the last time I got a "blue screen of death" -- maybe two or three years ago? I have never had any problems with the registry.

All you guys who have (or had) constant problems with PCs, what the heck are you doing to your computers?

i didnt have alot of problems myself the last three-four years because finaly XP got pretty stabile + i know it very well by know. Then came Vista and now Win7 and its all worse again, just like XP where in the start. Its like end-users are the beta-testers, for the average user its hell, i dont think i know one person without buggy windows, whether it be Xp, Vista or 7. Id love to stay on XP really because its what i know best and there are some things i really like in there (file-explorer is awesome imo) and i hate learning new apps. but i really wanted to try logic out and i needed a laptop anyway, and XP where dying while Vista where crap and Win7 wasnt ready, it was a easy decision switching to a macbook pro. Microsoft and PC laptops didnt have anything good to offer me this summer. In two three years things might be totaly different, once Win7 is on SP2 and has alot of driver support everything can be changed. I might not even end up using Logic and then im free to do whatever, or maybe Logic comes for Windows again, who knows, i dont care, i get what best in the moment and right now its mac/osx. Id go back to Windows again if it gets stabile for one reason alone, winamp! whadda off-topic back on topic i think less is more, just know your tools and ull find out that u dont really need much to make awesome stuff.

Well, now you know a couple of people already - MrJiveBoJingles seems to have a stable PC judging by his post just before yours. And my production computer has been utterly solid for the last 5 years. It's not on the internet, it has no games on it, it just runs beautifully and lets me make music.

i dont know any of you, for all i know u are all computer-wizards and actually like to fiddle with your OS, like car-rasers polishing their cars. there are alot of those around too and those def end up using windows as osx seems impossible to customize. would be great to see a world where apple and microsoft didnt go against each other but rather help each other making great technology (like pioneer, sony, samsung does with blue-ray). IT/IS-people in general arent really into collabs.

I switched to Mac a year ago when I was upgrading my system . I just didnt see the point in buying a new computer for an OS that was 10 years old. Vista was not an option and W7 want around. Perhaps microsoft will stop sucking.

Windows XP has been obsolete for almost 5 years, which speaks to the validity and relevance of your "opinion". I'm not the one being "conservative" here.

My PC (now Vista x64, previously XP) has been running fine for the last 8 years or so with no bugs or "modding". The fact is, you don't know shit, everything you say is based on a handful of anecdotes and rumours and a pantload of arrogance, and it seems that your only purpose here is to tell other people to be like you because you know what's best for everybody.

This isn't an issue of you not being good at expressing yourself or explaining what you mean. It's an issue of you being a fucking idiot and refusing to shut up even after it's been made crystal clear that you're pulling everything you say out of your own ass.

I rarely see you contribute anything of value to this forum; every post I see from you is either blatant trolling or vacuous one-liners. Either grow up or GTFO.
