ill probably buy a mac desktop in the near future.

So... It cost more, does the same shit, except doesnt run most games until there a year older and adapted. Its more expensive to upgrade and you wish it did stuff that XP does...

Well shit. Sign me up.

no way in hell i would just own a mac since i game. but , if you didnt game at all then it might be for you.

Mac's are fading out of the industry ffs. LOTR set the new standard when it was completely edited on a PC/ (Mini Compute though, not a micro). AND it was done with Vegas !! ed:

AND why would Apple go with Intel over AMD ??

Simple "Brand Name Power" Intel has a majority of the market, and people think they are getting what they paid for when they buy a Intel chip. AMD has not established a brand name for itself yet. (At least to the GENERAL Public.).

AND my advice to you Judas.....

I use MAC's on a near daily basis. AND all I can tell you is unless you are extremely into video editing....... WHICh you do not seem to be.. AVOID them. When it comes to functionality and general speed, the Microsoft Solution at the present time is much better.

thats pretty cool...

ps i have an ipod

pps im gonna go take a crap

ppps you guys like hawaiian punch?
