RE: Used Macs Still a Rip-Off
I had to install Windows XP a few weeks ago. First time I've had to touch windoze in years. OMG. SLLLLOOOOOWWW. Linux on the same machine, using the same applications totally smoked windows in every aspect. My God, I knew Linux was great and fast, but I was shocked to see the performance difference again.

Linux > All

RE: Used Macs Still a Rip-Off
if you dual boot (Win7 or Linux) will you still see the same advantage ?
I have only tried them on different machines.

RE: Used Macs Still a Rip-Off
They have been trying to kill the PC for well over a decade now. Calling out the death of PC games to consoles (failed). All the hipster mac commercials (failed).
PC is just to open, and easy for the average user to repair themselves. While a mac is like a Chinese puzzle to replace anything, and has to be proprietary hardware as well as software.

Death to Mac.
Death to Iphone. (Android is the PC version of the cell phone)

Rest In Hell Steve Jobs.

What about for graphic artists?
Linux? They all buy Mac like they're in a cult.

That you spent twice as much for in the first place thus your resale value means dick. You failed grade school math didn't you?

RE: Used Macs Still a Rip-Off
Adobe should just say that they will not run their software on mac. The same way flash isn't supported on the iPad.

Then let's see what the graphic artists do then.

I am a graphic artist. Pc all the way!
