BTW, I did watch the the whole video last night. And I kept thinking, "All these innovations are new? I thought I'd been doing them on my PC for a long time. I'll have to disagree with you on that. I want this argument to end as much as everybody else. So, I won't bother to post a proper rebuttal ...

since this thread is pretty much dead. (I think the arguing is over, that is. but I thought that before and I was wrong so we'll see.) here is a link for someone who wants to get the info about macs being used in schools:

Thanks for that post EMP. Nice job configuring a dual xeon for that price. I am a little skeptical that windows XP pro (XP home doesn't support dual processors) could be had for $100. but I know you could just steal it off the web for free so I'll let that go. I would also be hesitant to configure ...

concluding thoughts

Well, since it seems that the debate has stopped and both sides have had their say. I guess its safe to call some conclusions. Both sides agree that the Windows PC platform has the gaming market on a computer. The 90+% market share that windows enjoys guarantees that most every game will be ...

But, all that aside, what are the specs on your Apple? Not meant to be offensive if the specs are sub-par (God knows we’ve all used/owned shitty computers), but I’m really just curious. ... Apollo is still gonna do whatever it is he does with his computer. However, if any lives have been dra ...

My point is that PCs can do things Macs can't, but Macs can't do anything PCs can't. Do I sense someone grasping for a toe-hold before they go tumbling down into the abyss of acceptance and actually admit that macs are good (if not great) machines? Nah, no way. that's impossible. True hardcore PC ...

Re: One more thing

The guys at Mac need to pull their heads out of their asses and add a second mouse button. Jesus, not everyone is too stupid to control two buttons with one hand. umm, yeah. I'm wondering that one myself. Thats why every mac user goes out and buys at least a generic usb mouse when they buy their ...

What CAN you do on a G5 that is absolutely impossible on a PC? You've mentioned Half-Life 2 and several things that are impossible on a Mac. So, the mac can supposedly render a jpg a few seconds faster or whatever. I'm talking tasks that you could absolutely not do on a PC. proabably nothing. whats ...

I just saw that break posted a rather cynical remark about apple's advertising. Its late and I won't go into a whole long rant about how most of those tests were done first by the independant companies who make the software. They were given G5 test machines to code for and play with. And remember ...

Anyone who knows the history of Adobe is optimized for Apple. Which is good for Apple users, of course, but dosent count for much to me. Thats why the entire graphic-design industry uses macs. And the G-D industry has been around a lot longer than the gaming industry. OK, great, it does sequence ...

well good. bring it on. But did you look at the PDF files or the movie I linked to? Research my source documents (those PDFs and movie) and THEN write your reply. After all, both of us want to be as educated as possible about the competing platforms. If you hae any good info to pass along about the ...

historical perspectives

As far as the **hertz myths....it's all about efficiency. The Macs have a very efficient design and cut out alot of the crap that it takes to run instructions. That counts for a lot, but it can't keep up with raw processing power as intel. That is good for what...Seti@home and other grid computing ...
