I never really enjoyed macs, but I hate the commercials. They lie so much. But what commercaials are people talking about that Microsoft riped of Apple? The Mojave thing wasn't a rip off it was actually quite interesting. Oh and as for creative things, there isn't a single Mac in my schools art department.
Apple isn't the only computer company that sells octo-core systems. I've seen other ones that were much cheaper. Plus the RAM that they sell in those systems costs 500$ for 4 gigs, and its the same kind on newegg or compusa or tigerdirect.
I agree on the hardware front; it makes by far the biggest difference with recording. In fairness,i can ***** all day about how many professionals prefer what computers, but the one thing they probably all have in common is that they all use good quality mics, mixers, FX etc.Eggo said:

Horses for courses, I reckon.
Every windows notebook I've owned has bricked on me within 3 months, and that's with light use. Got a MacBook for uni and got on great with it, and luckily all the specialist chem software I need runs native.
That said, I own XP and Vista rigs for gaming and general use, and an iMac for course related work when I'm not on campus. Even break out *gasp* Unix for a spot of functional programming now and then.
Anyone arguing that one platform is the be all and end all is a tool as far as I'm concerned.

Oh, the ads? Both Apple and Microsoft came up with shit for them, seriously. Not like I've ever bought anything based on advertising.

There not as bad as the new microsoft "i'm a pc" adverts.
I'm a pc, and I'm desperately trying to convince people I'm down with it

I kind of like the ads, they're pretty funny. I like the two actors too, especially John Hodgman (the PC), he's great. Has anyone else seen him on the Daily Show? And he also wrote a hilarious book - The Areas of My Expertise [http://www.amazon.com/Areas-My-Expertise-John-Hodgman/dp/1594482225/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1229905297&sr=1-1]. It's a "reference" book that, among many others, has a section detailing the period when the Hoboes attempted to overthrow the US Government. Definitely worth checking out.

This. And the rest of the post of course. Neither OS is so good that it makes the other obsolete.
The only thing Macs are good for are giving you a headache. I have to use one where I work. Do you know how hard it is to do Photoshop without being able to right-click? Not only that but their slow as hell.
