after you downlaod the appropriate software... yes... but not as a clean windows install Very Happy
windows 7, yeah it comes closer and closer to what mac has been offering for years...

i find it awesome.... that vista came like 60% close to osx and it needed a beefy machine to run properly... now windows 7 comes about 70% close to what osx is even with the inferface. the day windows becomes as stable for media production then yes windows will rule both gaming and production world... but right now only thing windows is, is a gaming platform... osx rules the media world, it always has and it always will... with each release of osx it comes closer and closer to becoming a manditory standard.

windows is a standard in the modern world. i understand the hate. osx is a different operating system and yes it's used by pretentious assholes, but these assholes work on what the osx provides at it's maximum ability to what the windows systems can only dream of.

the only up the windows has is gaming.

hardware for macs is expensive, yes, but it's built for it, for its ultimate performance.
people these days look for gfx cards and audio cards to excel in gaming, where as people buy hardware for macs to excel in media production (adobe/fcp/etc etc etc)

it's a fact that macs are a standard in media production advertising, post production, and what ever else is there... windows deals at the same level but to reach the ability that osx has at is minimum level, you need a machine that costs twice as much as the cheapest mac.

kids who buy macs just because others have them, rarely use them to its full potential.
that's like in canada and isp's. in europe people want the fastest connection to download at the highest speed and have the biggest e-penis. in canada only a fraction of kids use their internet connection to download and stream videos online. others use internet just to check their e-mail... and that's something sabin and many other arrogant kids fail to understand.

anyone who believes the world they're exposed to is alike with the world outside of their own... is incredibly stupid.

i'm now going to bash spykez... who is incredibly racist. but that does not reflect the entire american society... it only reflect the part of america where he's at. who cannot accept that a black person is a leader of their country. no matter how much good he wants to accomplish in the world, he's wrong at doing so because he's a 'nigger'. simple. sabiin and many others are exactly the same. it also goes for the fanboys of consoles.

if you cannot comprehend the idea that graphics do not equal gameplay then you really are a worthles piece of shit. simple. ps3 has its ups and down. so does the 360 and so does the wii. but all platforms excel in what they were designed to do. same with operating systems.

windows in a known gaming platforms. recognized by anyone and everyone.
macs are designed to focus on media based production...
people who do not work within media will not ever comprehend the idea that macs are superior in that aspect. they were designed for it. simple.


arguing that fact is like arguing that the wii is a childish platform and only kids and women should play it, and people who say that have never fully played a wii.

you cannot argue one is better without living in both worlds...

No.

You're all looking at it wrong. There is no ONE operating system that is better than the other. Operating systems are tools. People will operate them according to what they need and personal preference. Think of OS's as hammers. If I've gown up and operated with the same hammer all my life, I'm not going to switch to another one, even if it's bigger, better, and easier to hold, because I've already familiarized myself with my current hammer to the point that I'm comfortable with the level of productivity I get out of it.

However, if one day I find a job that my current hammer cannot do, I will gladly buy another one and get the job done. Until that day, I will stick with my beloved hammer, twist it, tweak it, anything so long as I don't have to replace it.

Waldo has used a MAC for a long time (all his life?). Waldo is familiar with his MAC. Waldo can do on his MAC everything I can do with my PC.

I have a PC. I am comfortable with my PC. I can do on my PC everything that Waldo can do on his MAC. One day I found that I couldn't comfortably develop iPhone apps on the PC. That same day I went and bought a $1700 MACBook. Now that MAC is another tool in my toolbox. I don't use it much, because usually everything I do can be done from the PC. Maybe it takes more effort and hardware to do that stuff on the PC, but I will do it anyways because I am comfortable with my PC.

It all comes down to personal taste, as with many other things in life. Arguing which is better, PC vs MAC, is like arguing which is better, Java or C#? Pointless...

Rolling Eyes and if you run osx on it it'll struggle
same specs does not equal same performance Laughing
when it comes to macs vs pcs... specs mean shit really...
i'm sure that machine can run 4k footage just like it can run a 40gig uncompressed file
but for it t handle 4k + render it'd need to be faster when it runs on windows

im not bashing your results but you can't really look at mac specs and then look for pc hardware and compare prices... and call it exactly the same because the hardware is the same... that's just silly Very Happy

oooo old link too Laughing prolly means nothing cause they used prebuilt machines and stuff and something http://www.popularmechanics.com/technology/reviews/4258725.html?page=4

it's like... i know you can build your own system 10x better than a mac for a fraction of the price...
but for it to run osx Sad i dun think so Sad osx is modified to run at its best with the hardware it was designed for. even if it's not top notch super duper expensive hardware... it still manages to out due pc's in shit Razz and if you spend an arm and a leg for a mac... you has super awesome pc to render/edit 4k footage at awesome fun super time, and still run latest crytek game at 16fps Laughing

like come on Cool Face!!!!!!! agreeee with me!!! NAO!!! :FACE:!!!! <caps!!>
