If max is so good, why didn't they make their own OS, instead of raping the shit out of BSD?

wow, you really are coming across as the moron fanboi in this thread friend, i think your taking the os wars way too seriously...

btw, macs offer a great package in terms of compatibility and usability. i have a mac pro dual 2.66GHz xeon w/ 8GB memory and its really nice to have that much ram to play w/... and the top end memory limit is 16GBs. show me a windows xp machine that can handle that kind of memory, there isn't one... the only Windows OS that can handle more than 2GB (3GB w/ the /3GB switch) is the server flavor, and it doesn't handle large pages very well..

Although I am a steadfast Mac fan, I also have a windows machine (Athlon 1.1 ghz ,5 years old) that still runs winXP just fine. But I will correct you on one thing. Windows Vista Ultimate 64 bit edition can handle up to 8gigs of ram. However, it will have even LESS driver support than Vista already has. But at least you have another option other than Server Edition.

SantaCruz

Who spells fanboy "FANBOI"? - Oh yeah little girls and anime fans.

Who the fuck needs 8gbs of ram?! LMAO, 16gbs is even more ridiculous, and shit you can't even use that for games! Such a stupid point to make on your part, I've never known a need other than music production for 8 fucking gb, let alone 16. WEAK!!!

Timbo

hahahahaha!

Well, if you've never heard of it, I guess no-one needs it, right? I mean, in all seriousness, how do you have the time to post on this board with all the world leaders calling you asking for your wisdom?
I know you're just having fun baiting along the people into a flamewar with you, but the more posts I read the more stupid people are just thinking you are. Please stop. For us. For humanity.

Riiiight. How easy is it for someone to write this and call me out as a flamewar instigator? Whatever bro, do your thing and avoid the clear point I am making here. Nobody needs 8gb or 16gb of ram except producers and nutty tech fags. 8gb...lmao, fuck outta here with that bullshit, it was a weak point.

hmm some angry people in here..
i love the tv add where the pc guy is this older lonely geek and the mac guy is a hip 20 something. the most recent one the pc is going in for peripherial upgrade and the mac (gay?) guy is checking out his ass...pretending not to like the view..

anyways, i have pc's and a imac 1.2 ghz notebook. the mac is solid, runs fine, never any real problems, but i do lots of pictures, think batch convert 150 photos each 30 mb raw files. and the mac is slow.. my pc (one of the first version amd 64 chips) does much faster even though they are both same speed and same amount of ram.

borked

Pfffffft, there IS NO CONTEST.

You cannot use a Windows laptop as a carpenter's/builder's level ergo the Mac wins hands down.


On a side note, the technlogoy driving this saved my bacon today when I dropped my laptop, producing a nice dent where the HD is. The laptop woke from sleep, took about 30 seconds to deactivate the sudden motion sensor, then everything went back to normal.

lol, you must not do much other than play games and surf porn forums on your computer then, as having that much ram is quite the boon for many tasks... video editing, 3d animation/compositing just to name a couple. i think the weak point is more your box which sounds like its limited to 2GBs (and probably only has 256MB anyways)... i'm out though, you really aren't worth debating w/ troll-boy..

What are you using to batch the pictures on the mac? The reason I ask is if your using Photoshop, then your not using the power of the mac yet. Photoshop is still running in "rosseta" mode. CS3 is optimized for the Intel mac, and the beta release is already faster. If you own CS2 you can download the CS3 Beta from Adobe using your serial number/user info.

Why would someone need 16gig of ram? Are you kidding me? I guess you haven't noticed so I'll point this out to you very slowly v...i...d...i...o. Some would say it's one of the foundations of the industry that we are in. Yes on a mac your currently going to be using Final Cut. But, adobe has announced they are back in the mac game and will be releasing the new version of premier for the mac.

And the price difference? If you compare like systems (well as close to like as you can find) The Mac's are actually CHEAPER. http://www.macworld.com/2006/08/feat...?lsrc=mwtoprss

Thats just one older example. Put do what I did and actually look at the specs of a Macbook Pro 17 then find me a matched windows laptop cheaper. Oh and that Matched laptop should have Firewire 800 AND usb2, 8x double-layer burner, able to take 3 gigs of ram and for video, ATI Mobility Radeon X1600 graphics with 256MB SDRAM.

What it comes down to is use. If your wanting a computer to wack off on porn all day, read GFY and bitch then take a break to play computer games, yes a Windows based machine will work for you. When you start moving into the Professional video/audio then your windows options become limited due to the memory issue. What you use has no effect on me, I really could careless. If you have windoz stuck so far up your ass that you can't think strait that's your problem not mine.

Flame away!

my mac notebook is not one with the intel chips, guess it is the older version, apprx 2 years old (still newer than my pc), can i still take advantage of the faster CS3 ? does it make any difference? over the years the speed argument has always gone back and forth where mac people claim to be equally fast.. and always in retrospect the pc's have been faster (and according to mac peeps, the next brand new OS will now outdo the pc). Someone should do a test bench doing photoshop batch scripts as the test medium...

SantaCruz

A.) Calling someone a troll is too easy.

B.) I have 256mb ram? What, you can see into my house now? Fuck outta here nimrod.

C.) I did say producers did I not? Fuck off idiot.

OMFG This really shows how a NOOB this morron is. Coming here and insulting everyones in this community without even knowin' who Tassy is....

Have any of your 59 posts not contained insults?

You sound like an angry 12 year old

Gerco

No, your old Mac is totally obsolete. There really is not compairision as the Macbook pro LAPTOP actually blows the fastest G5 workstation out of the water. The new CS3 is aimed directly at the Intel Chipset mac's.

I was never impressed with mac performance in the past, it's only recently with the introduction of the intell chips where this has changed. There is even talk now of using the upcoming QUAD core chip inside the Macbook pro.

There is no comparison between the Intel based Mac and a Windows machine. Opps. a Mac can run Windows both native mode or under parallels emulation. So a Mac is a GUI BSD Unix machine that actually works out of the box with an excellent Unix based OS and also can run Windows if necessary.

There is no contest, two machines in one case.

I've never seen someone so passionate about a debate. What a fucking fan boy. A surfer too I'm assuming.

3 months ago I had the choice between a suped up PC laptop or a Macbook Pro.

I went with the Macbook Pro and haven't looked back. My next desktop will be a Mac Pro.

I have Vista running with Parallels but only use it when I need to do Internet Explorer testing.

Why is a mac better?

The laptop feels complete...not like it was made in a factory and stuffed with a million different parts that may or may not work with each other once something gets deleted or goes wrong.

Why do people pay more for Infniti's then they do for Nissan's (same company)?

Same reason I paid the premium for my Macbook.

SantaCruz

What? I've owned machines for years with no problems. That was such a dumbass, retarded comment. What a fucking douchebag.

People reading this, ignore blatant bullshit like this, look after a PC and it'll run for years fine. Mac users are just dumb people who have no fucking clue about how to maintain their PC's to a good working order. They download shit with viruses etc and don't check their systems or protect themselves, and then cry like this when it all goes down. Either that or they just talk out of their ass, which I suspect they do 90% of the time.

Really lame.

You're actually as bad as the mac lovers with your rhetoric.

That sounds promising..and if comes out with the quad core intel chips we should see some really high transfer rates etc ?
The mac OS as i understand it, is much simpler and requires much less oerating memory (ram), does this make it fast also ? how does a mac with intel chips runing on the mac os vs one similar runing on win os ?

thederek

There. the best way people here can get the best of Santa Cruz is to join together and buy a spot on the top of my MacBook Pro porn editing machine. See the link in my sig? Go there and JOIN TODAY.

Otherwise Santa Cruz, put your money where your mouth is and buy the top of my lid to say how much Macs suck. That's a dare.

Windows Apps running under Native mode Windows will run as fast as on any equal dedicated windows computer. Windows apps running in a Parallels emulation window will run slower since they are running in emulation mode.

Native files written for the Intel will run as fast or faster than the Windows program. Programs written for the PowerPC processor will run seamlessly but since they are in an emulation mode slower.
