I have 12" PowerBook and I absolutely love it. It just depends though. I'd say go to an Apple store and try one out or borrow a friend's. Thats what I did before I bought mine.
Each day I find some cool software? It seems to be made for the Apple/MAC users. I was wondering if I should just make the switch.
Any input would be great,
Any Apple/MAC users out there?

Thank you.
The only reason I never used apple was, the parts never fit any of the million PC parts I have laying around my trailer. I would curse Apple when I would find a cool ass Keyboard or mouse and it would not fit the motherboard.
But I saw some cool ass PCs at one of the comp. stores and it had a touch screen and it was Apple, Not to mention I just got some cool software and it says this..........

Now that Mac's are basically intel pc's.... and people are running XP..
IMO... Mac OS days are numbered...
not really, i would rather run mac os on a pc than windows on a mac. i use a pc at home and i work at apple and use a mac there. i like both os's but no one who has used mac os is gonna buy a mac to run XP on it, especially in half-supported beta boot camp mode. apple has a very firm grip on its customer base and mac os is very very user friendly - people who can afford macs are not gonna go run off to run XP on their macs in droves.
the universal logo means the program is a universal binary - it contains two binaries - one for the older power pc based macs, and one for the newer intel imacs.Thank you.

so you've been using one for about 5 years?
Im thinking about switching over
I like the new 21 inch Imac, that thing looks very nice.
I believe both Spurschick and Katyon6th are Mac users, they should have all the answers you might need!
what ever you wind up using? thank me when you get on line.
PCs are the spawn of Satan.
I use both PC and Mac. But, Mac predominantly. I only use a PC still, because I still have one - but I'd never switch back to PC.
I switched 4 years ago
It was easy classic 9 is like 98
x is like xp
there terms make since never crashed is built on unix
no security problems
and most important bill gates has stopped supporting ie 5.02 for the mac so you can not use it and no upgrades. so things work better without ie anyhow
firefox works way better anyway. but i think it's silly apple trumpets the no security problem stuff, that's mostly due to how little attention hackers pay to mac os. if it were as popular as XP people would bother to hack it. i think mac os x is a great os, but i will always use a pc at home because they are much easier and cheaper to fix hardware problems for. i may grab a mac mini to play with though.
I don't buy that at all. OSX was built on top of Darwin, which is descended from Berkeley UNIX. Apple is built on top of the original operating system (UNIX), something that was designed for secutiry and multiple users from day 1, and has almost 40 years of work behind it. There's absoultely nothing that networks like a *BSD system, because Berkeley UNIX is the OS that invented modern networking.
It seems like so much of Windows is just hacked together. I could buy that argument more for linux, but not for a mature OS like BSD.
I don't get it, Didn't the Apple dude and Bill Gates at one time work with each other?
Amen!
We're using exclusively OpenBSD for all our installations (This froum is running on it too - since recently) and we haven't found a thing that we couldn't do with this OS while taking full advantage of its security features.
Linux sucks, they are becoming more like Windows everyday.
If by working together you mean Bill stealing the concept of a graphical OS from Steve, then yes they did!
Oh, and btw, Steve stole the idea first from some engineers at Xerox - he did so with the full knowledge of Xerox's management who didn't believe that such a thing had a future (specially since it took a mouse to operate it).

I thought the Japs made the first PC?
Johnny Blaze your thoughts?
MS licensed it from apple but when the agreement ran out they didn't reup or anything like that, they just kept using it.
I think.
Mac user all my life, the ONLY reason to go PC is if your geeky or need specific les/games.
There's never been a problem that doesn't make you go "boy, was i stupid......"
Alls i know is this 21? incher desktop that i'm using kicks ass, wish i owned it. Its the one that's only an inch and a half think and its all in one. Is that the new Imac? The sound blew me away, i expected it to be crappy with those built in tiny speakers. That remote makes it so freaking cool.
This is true. Never once have I wished death upon my Mac, and I've done that several times with my PC. Every time I have to move the thing, I secretly hope that it will get lost or vanish off the face of the planet. So far no luck.
i just think if more people tried, they would be more sucessful at hacking it. right now it is a lot easier to hack windows so they keep doing it. if it were more worth their while they would try it more. but from your post i can tell you know a lot more about networking than i do =] if i had enough money to throw around i would have a mac, but for a couple hundred dollars i can throw together quite a nice pc, so i will hold on to my pc for a while (at home). btw, apple is a great company to work for!
I wish they would get rid of the floppy
macs haven't had a floppy drive for years. they have pretty much phased out the modem too, the only one you can get now is usb and it costs extra with all the new units.
i5/os
say I...
IBM ...
I the man...
Aye Carumba!
