I’ve not used a Mac before. Currently using Vista home premium. Hey don’t shoot me okay. It came with the laptop. So far so good. Boot time are respectable about 60 sec on Core2D 2G Ram machine. Better than linux, go google it. No idea about Mac but Mac is reccomended by many IM.

More stable than XP

Pros’
- fast launch
- stabler than XP

Con’s
- some software can’t run
- can’t fax, unless Vista Business, bought Snappy Fax
- need huge memory, but it can learn what you usually use

Lately I tinker with linux ( got very unproductive, haha)
Tried PuppyLinux. It is for old machine mind u, can run on 128MB Ram no harddisk required
Load about same time with Vista (uncompress kernal etc) Sure it can be
faster if full install. Not too bad. Shut down in like 10sec. Wifi, printing ok.

I like Open Soft, but linux is still not that user friendly yet & I don’t like to pay.

I’m a novelist and I started off on a PC. It crashed three months after I started writing. I had lost everything. I went to a Mac. It’s almost impossible for it to loose you work. I do not want to go back to a PC. They are so easy to crash. My son does it for a living for a global company.

He hates Macs because he can’t crash them. He needs to learn every possible way to crash a PC so he can fix virus. I’m never lost my work since I owned a Mac.

Your comments were pretty fair, but lets just say I was a Windows user, now a Mac user and able to give comparison from experiences after using both. Another note to add, I’ve seen many windows user converted to Mac, but none going the reverse.

Gobala: You could be right because iBook is quite a old product. You should consider Macbook now.

Yeah.. “When you go Mac you don’t go back” – just make sure you have extended warranty. My Apple iBook died 2 months after the warranty expired and the cost of repair is almost the same price as buying a new Apple laptop.

Hey LcF, no time no see…how are you?

Mac sounds very tempting indeed, and I’m wondering if I should get a MacBoook or Dell XPS 1530. Almost the same price though Dell offers a better after sales.

As a graphic designer , I agree that MAC is better.

My experience tell me.

I don’t understand why mac users have a big chip on their shoulder as their products are nowhere as good as they like to think they are. Maybe its because they cost so much more than a proper PC that they have to justify spending so much.

reagarding the mac price, we have to consider also the licensed software included in a Mac computer. It really worth the price.

erm..

you guys have thick money in your pocket
then you get the MAC
for me i just use Windows. I can’t afford the cost.
I just never turn off my pc and reboot but only doing that when need.
For info i never see a death blue screen. Maybe it’s not the OS, it’s a machine..

Blue screen of death? Never seen one for sometime now. Bear been on linux mostly.

The only good Mac is Big Mac. Bear like Big Mac.

But Bear do not mind trying out a free MacBook. Who wants to give Bear a MacBook?

I’m using Mac for about 3 months. I love it. I really like the OSX features and the unix Os

Hear of
True Type?
Alt-PrintScreen?
Command Prompt?
PowerShell?
Window Desktop Search? Google Desktop?
Opera?
VMPlayer?
Microsoft Virtual Desktop?

These are all your cool thing about MAC in windows. Except they work much better compare to MAC. All come either build-in or Free download.

But i guess MAC lover love their inverted screen. I have my computer glasses all the time, no thanks

MAC is cool on the look, work wise, please give me microsoft (hey, even Office @ Mac look nicer in window !)

I will not go for MAC unless I want to show off because using MAC it is just like driving BMW. It is a different status.
