kevinb721 Posted September 9, 2007 Report Share Posted September 9, 2007 (edited) macs are only good for 2 things...wait nvm they're not good for anything maybe a boat anchor like ^^ i'm not baggin on the apple corporation, because their ipods are great. their computers are terrible. if you even want to get a mac that is halfway decent....and i mean just halfway decent...you're paying out the nose for it. at least you can build a PC with parts that YOU order so you know exactly what is going into your pc. and I can build a pc for thousands less thats 10x more powerful than any mac will ever be. plus their os is garbage. just my 2 cents Edited September 9, 2007 by kevinb721 Quote 12" fi q rf t10001 naw mean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amalan Posted September 9, 2007 Report Share Posted September 9, 2007 i get frustrated with macs mainly cause if my pc starts to lag i know what to do to speed it up. if im playing a game offline or something ill turn off my real time anti spyware and virus and kill certain process that i dont need like itunes and whatever. when a mac starts to lag i get this stupid spinning pin wheel of death and it then you set it down for an hour, come back and hopefully its done thinking about what it should do to you next for giggles.

If you can build a computer and it out performs the mac with the same to little cost then more power to you. But the fact is there isnt a great PC distributor thats good out of the box for a decent price. Only companies i have seen that have nice performing computers would have to be Voodoo PC even then you end up paying $4-5K comparing to a $3k G5 that will render something hell of a lot better than the pc will ever will. If your argument is better gamin on a pc then thats weak. The new g5s are video card upgradeable...drivers are all software based. and if you still feel like you need to run windows run bootcamp then on your mac, you can even take your mac to the appe store and they will help you install bootcamp & setup windows with you if you dont know how to install it on your mac. anyways video is funny lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just think yours is a bit farfetched and unresonable when it comes to buying a home pc. and about the gaming part, regardless of if macs are "video card upgradable" they will never outperform pc's in that regard. when you are compairing macs to pc's gaming wise its like your compairing apples to oranges. macs will never have the processing power to meet the higher end gamers needs.

Guest MegaloManiac Posted September 9, 2007 Report Share Posted September 9, 2007 when i said there isnt a decent distributor at a decent price...compare it to the mac on the same price & performance level. yeah there are a dells that are less than a grand but shit you give it something to do th mac can handle it better& faster from my experience.
