    Weee... the moment I've been waiting all summer for. For you Apple fans on the board, (all 2 or 3 of you... hehe) :

    Apple announces their new iMacs and G4's.

    A 733 MHz G4 for $1699. Mmmmm... come to papa.

    If it's not a PC, it's crap. [​IMG] Seriously, Macs are alot harder to use.

    I've worked on both and Win has always been a pain in my ass. I'll take a Mac any day of the week.

    You guys are too much. I'll put it this way, to close an application on a PC, all you have to do is click on the X, on Mac, it's like a scavenger hunt. It's true. It's damn true. And, I'm drunk.

    We use both platforms but for our companies video editing we work entirely on the G4 733 superdrive. Man, this machine rocks. For maximum drool factor check out the new titanium power books.

    Maybe the drunkness explains the difficulties...

    Although I must confess I find PC's easier... worked with Mac's for ages and I now hate them (except for the trendy colours!) - but perhaps that's just because I worked with 'em...

    The point is, it is so much easier on PC. I'm hungover.

    Personally, I've found that I have trouble working with Macs now because I've become so used to using PCs.

    When I was learning from scratch, I found the Macs far easier to use (Windows has gotten better since then, too), but now that I work almost exclusively with PCs, I have to think about how to use the Mac while the PC has become natural to me.

    It's a familiarity thing with me more than anything else.
