They both update about the same mac a little slower but with bigger at a time windows does a million little ass updates. Gaming mac loses bad no one make games for mac and no one really makes Music Video for windows. I just like that we can fight about this and still be smart and agree both are good at what they do.

only pc stuff, and only pc hardware. Which is why I went to him for my pc. I buy apple stuff at the apple store in the mall.

Garage band is an incredible program.

A battery in a desktop? U mean the cmos battery? And the newest Inivida cards are becoming great HD cards so HD editing would be a must for these cards. And ditto on the incredible.

That'll just make them more popular unfortunately, and a bigger target for virus writers.

i dont think they will gaming isnt the mac way. And trying to get all of the designers to make two versions to work on both os will be hard.

sadly yes... i will admit i have made my share of "viruses" but they did no harm and was more like prank programs in tech classes.

this is how forums should be smart people and good clean talks not just flame wars. I love C5 more and more as i use it.

Yes they USED to be crap but now they are so far ahead of Microsoft it isnt even funny. So much simpler and run so smoothly and iv never seen a virus in my life.

Apple with GM sure that'd be cool but it wont happen.. good thought.

without the introduction of the ipod apple would be in chaper 7 by now. LOL
no but really the only thing apple has on micosoft is preception
