Get the Mac! After going to school for IT and a lot of experience with PCā€™s, I can honestly say now that I have a Mac that they are far superior to PCā€™s. Anything someone can do on a PC, I can do on my Mac. The only problem you will ever run into is small time software and games usually donā€™t have a Mac version. It can be a little frustrating the first month of use if you never used one before. After learning their language and commands it makes much more sense the pcā€™s and is way more efficient. My 800 MHz processor runs circles around my old pc 2k MHz processor. Good Luck ---

Errā€¦ Uh wrongā€¦ while native RISC is faster than CISC in a lot of things the CISC style processors have come a long way. Even the new G5 is not as fast as the high end Intel/AMD chips, Apple is very good at marketing hype. I wonā€™t dispute you on the way you claim it makes sense, some pepole just think different. > _Originally posted by Club ā€œ33ā€_ > **Get the Mac!
