Mac or PC, Or Linux? - Haydn - 24.06.2011
Yes, I know there is already a topic on this, But it's archived and no one can ever post again on it.
Here it is...
And people views must have changed by now.
I own 3 Macs and 1 PC, and 1 Linux Machine.
Macs are..
Powerbook G4 Aluminum 10.4
iBook Clamshell Blueberry Os9
iMac 2006 Whitecast Intel core 2 duo. Max OSX 10.6
Linux is..
A Gateway GM5664 - Ubuntu 11.04
And my Windows PC is an Acer Aspire 5534, It's new. Windows 7
So, Mac or PC Or Linux
? I know there is a computer area sub-form but this is a topic, and its hard to keep people on topic in other areas on one thing. (Kinda confusing, I know).[ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MDedb1Kgjys&feature=relmfu[/ame]

Not this again...
You can't compare Mac vs. PC, because Macs are PCs too! The very definition of "PC" is Personal Computer.
Macs have their advantages for designing, because the photoshop software suites and other additional graphic and video creation/editing software were created for (and on) Macs and were later ported to Windows/Microsoft as they became larger. The only real advantage in my eyes is that Apple based Mac on Unix. Apple over-charge for Mac hardware and software, it's only really plastic-like designs and a few well-promoted products such as iTunes and the physical design of the hardware for Mac computers that attracts people to using their products.
Windows is simple; it has everything you'll need, you can do pretty much everything you'll ever need from a computer on it efficiently. The operating systems Windows produce are made to function well for both computer illiterate and computer literate people. Microsoft is a lot more of an open market; Microsoft do not really dictate what hardware and software you can use, anyone can engineer the appropriate hardware to create a computer that functions properly for Microsoft as well as not being burned at the stake for doing so, Apple keep control over everything they create to the extent where it's just unfair. Microsoft sell their products for fair prices and for the most part are fair with the products they release, but if it's censorship you want - go with Apple.

DICE has always said that the PC version would feature extra graphical capabilities in form of higher resolution textures, more anti-aliasing, among other thing |

Get a Lenovo ThinkPad (used to be IBM) and download Linux, have Windows 7 and Linux in Dual Boot and you'll have a better PC than every Mac is. (ThinkPads are high-quality notebooks independent of the OS and Linux is free and much more secure than Windows.
