buy a PC
Mac

I produced on a Mac for about 8 or 9 months, absolutely hated the stupid thing. It was like a Mac Pro or something (the big tower), it just felt slower than my PC and it kept ing freezing/crashing. |

Did you use the above chip? I too have a hackintosh that I modded to run OSX and I don't use the chip. As of about 2 weeks ago I can no longer boot into my OSX because somewhere, somehow it messed up. These chips do all the hard work for you and they are very stable.
My next purchase is one of these chips, not a $3,000 mac |
Read THIS before you consider buying one of those chips. |

was it yours or was it at a school ? I ask because school computers are rarely properly maintained. |

until you realise you have no home key, no end key and no right click. don't start with the "oh you can just press fn + alt + z + q + ..." , that's just moronic.
desktop macs are not bad, but macbooks are just pure retardation. i would never buy one. fyi, i use one every day at work and i hate it. :) |

It comes down to personal preference. I'd only buy a Mac if all other type of pc's wouldn't exist any more. I dislike everything about it. I don't think Leopard makes any sense whatsoever.
I have my first hands on experience with Logic today. That's pretty darn good stuff I must say. It has been my only positive experience with a mac thus far :D.
Problem is a lot of pre-built pc's are crap. With Macs that is not the case. You need a bit more technical knowledge with a regular pc. |

home = press up
end = press down
right-click = press with two fingers
your arguments are dated
also
enter = rename (without renaming the filetype), i love that one |

You use one every day and you haven't realised that you right click by touching the trackpad with two fingers?

| it took me some time to get used to it but once you get used to the OS and its advantages , it puts your mind at ease. WIndows registry system is a nightmare. |

yeah good work genius... home is function + left, end is function + right. i hate macs and i know this. you fail at being a mac user. silly mac guy probably doesn't even know what home and end are, LOL. also, you seemed to conveniently miss part of my post...

well that's not RIGHT CLICKING now is it? fyi, don't be presumptuous... i'm well aware of how to "right click" (;)) on a mac.
i always love the irony of how elitist macbook users are, despite the fact that their keyboards are broken. it's kind of like listening to a disabled child talk about how he is going to be the world's greatest sports star when he grows up; you just feel sorry for them, they don't know any better. |

u can right click using one finger on a normal mouse on mac too. to be using it everyday u sure havent tried learning it man, its like u want it to disapoint you, so you can stick with your homemade computer.
there where numbers of things that annoyd me when i switched too but i found better ways to get what i wanted. its just to find it and getting used to it and now i work faster that i did on Windows, after only a few months, while Windows took me 10 years to learn properly. |
