oops... me too. Although I like the Ipod. But for computers I will have to go with PC compatibles. There is just not the same amount and variety of software available for Apple. :beaten:
it's really not true if you look deeper into it. On the surface, there may be less in the total amount of software (excluding highly specialized software/equipment interface) but what you get it what you need. Sure, you may have 2,000,000 software titles, but if 1,999,900 are crap that you'll never use, that's the point in using them as reference.

Yesh exactly. I mean, I got Microsoft Office for my Mac, plus all the Life package stuff you get with the compy to begin with, and I've never missed a PC since. I think Apple's are a lot more user friendly, but I understand it's hard getting used to when you've worked on a PC your whole life.
How come? You're the first person I've "met" who doesn't like Apple.
If they use Windows. They like Macs. :hehe:

I understand that Apple people will fight to the death for their vice so it's useless to enter into a debate. At least they have won me over on the Ipod. But it's still a truism that software availability that you really need (not the million of crap) is simply there versus maybe there because software developers develope for the big market as a simple economic dictate. :shakehead:

If that were the case, why would Macs have an emulation mode to run Windows software? :P
because grumpy old men like you need to be eased into something "new"..
*gasp*

i dont fight for Apple, i use it and i like it. But i often have to ask more than once if someone has actually used the operating system or for that matter the computer as a whole. it used to be that 90% of the people who evangelize and demonize Apple products never even bother to use one, and was going solely on heresay, what they read in some PC magazine or what their friends say.
For someone who does a lot of imaging work, I find Macs are much easier to handle. I mean, PCs are good if you're just doing the average stuff people do with computers, but when you start designing and creating music and making movies, etc, macs are easier, especially to navigate through each project.
