I've been using PC's for years without any problems. Hell, I've been running x64 w/o protection for the last year. I even treaded in dangerous spyware laden sites. Just gotta learn when to pull out. Much like sex.

 

:knockonwood:

 

Hahahah...........

 

pulling out, oh boy

 

I am a strong believer in karma myself, but I do feel software is way too expensive any more. But then again, companies have to make money to keep going and pay for r/d.

 

And I thought you were a good guy, now the truth comes out.


I've had a PC since the good 'ole commodore 64 days and have yet to get a virus.

huh? I'm not sure what kind of "graphics" you are refering to? but as far as I know (being a web designer and 3d interactive design graduate) pc's are the head in all graphics related situations (yes, even photoshop has been optimised for pc over mac for the last 5 years).

 

Photoshop is what I mainly use, and my laptop doesn't have enough ram to handle it anymore.

I was on the Apple site last night, im not buying anything until the Leapord OS comes out in a few months.

 

Make sure you try a similarly priced laptop with Vista (and preferably one with a hybrid hard-drive if you can find one). I have been running the beta test of Vista on my laptop for work (mainly Photoshop and Dreamweaver) and it is significantly better then even winxp. I'll admit Macbooks are pretty sweet looking, but for the price you can get a much better equipped pc.

 

In this day and age, its what's on the outside that counts.
