So one short storry and then my question!
I like Mac computters and I will buy me one in the future.I need a computter for home use and probably i will buy me an iMac.Shore something is in design but visualy i like OSX more than Windows.

And now my question:

Do you like more OSX or Windows and why?:sqwink:
 
When compatibility is 100% I will run the mac OS system on a non over priced machine.

I can buy a pc will better specs than a mac for 1/2 if not 1/4 the price of buying a mac off the shelf.

Cam!

Almost every time is something better on paper(theory) as in real situation.


Overpriced? Maybe not shure.But im shure that some China computter can not be better as computter made in USA.
 
Well OS X is better than windows.. No contest. It now supports much more business type software as well.

Plus the one's that are built with intel chips will run windows with absolutely no problems.. The downside is then you are switching back and forth between the two *plus you still have to shell out $89-250 for an OEM version or more for retail*

The biggest mistake that Mac made with it's computers is not allowing other people to build them, thereby making them more expensive. If they had gone the route that IBM had went, I have absolutely no doubt in my mind that Microsoft would now be making software exclusively for the Mac.. *plus they wouldn't keep releasing buggy, crappy versions of their own OS* :)

just my two cents

I may be the only one and I will get blasted for this.

I try not to buy things made in the USA. Our workers are lazy and quality of goods is generally poor.

I think Germany and Japan are the best manufacturing countries.
 
It's simple really...

OSX for girls, and Windows for guys :sqlaugh:


From a programmers standpoint: OSX (or any Unix variant), cannot hold a candle to the Windows API, driver support, etc.

When 95% of the people on a given planet, use a certain operating system, you are going to have more viruses, spyware, et. al. It has nothing to do with the OS itself, just statistics -- and a myth that Apple creates. I give Mr. Jobs credit for his marketing savvy... ;)
 
Oh come on Rick OSX is awful purdy. :D

It really depends on what you want to do with the computer. If you're happy with Mac's core set of applications, web browser, email, instant messenger, and MS Works like suite go for it. With tools like Parellels you can run Vista right inside of OS X almost like it's just another program so you can run most Windows apps on a mac.

For me, I like versatilely I like a computer that I throw any piece of hardware in or any piece of software on. That's a PC. Plus for what you'd spend on a purdy mac you can get a whole lot more PC for. :)

Yeah it is kinda purdy, but then so is Vista -- and I am really starting to like Vista, since I have it tuned and running smooth as a babies butt now :)
 
Guys, thats why I said in the Start that I need a computer for home use(surfing,pics,wifes music...)
My laptop is Made in Germany and with Vista Ultimate.
 
I'm talking about FUJISU. For American and Canadian market they all made in Japan, altought I'm not sure about Fujitsu-Siemens in Europe.
 
Mac offers a great image managing machine. Before image managing and printing became all DIY, photography and print shops used Mac machines almost exclusively. Macs were doing photo-quality work long before anyone heard of Paint Shop Pro or Pinnacle.

Also, all the schools used Macs for student training back in the '80s. Macs were cheaper and harder to eff up than DOS-based or IBM machines at the time. Macs didn't become outdated every month or so, either. Only drawback to this was ~ most keyboarding teachers had never used Macs before so you had to train the trainer.

The only format I've ever worked with is the DOS-based PC or IBM. I have never used a Mac so I can't say which is better. What I have works. I can say that. :)

Im not as big into company backgrounds but Pioneer is made in japan i know that, what about Rane?
I buy what works best Even if it means Japanese or German.

I agree completely!!!

Whenever I have some numbskull come up to me complaining because I am not "buying American", I just look at him and say that as soon as American plants stop paying the janitor $20 an hour just because he is part of the union, I will consider buying American. Until then, I am going to buy what I think is the best value, be it German, Iraqi, North Korean or Russian.

I don't care where it comes from or who makes it, as long as it is a quality product at a reasonable price.

You want to buy American? Go right ahead, but just know you are paying extra because of the Unions.

Now, in regards to this thread, I have never come across one Mac/Apple product I could stand.

Bash Gates and Microsoft all you want, but I honestly have never had one issue with any product I have bought from them.
