January 14, 200917 yr Entirely different? I wouldn't say so. They have their similarities and their differences. It would obviously take some time to get used to but once you do get used to it you'll love it I promise. If you just know how to run the internet and type on BGP's all day (jk) then a Mac would be fine if you'd rather not have viruses. Also if you're a big I-tunes guy these things are built around things like i-Tunes, i-Chat, i-Movie, etc. and the rest of their own programs. Also their laptops have great benefits. The battery power is far more superior than any PC on the market. There are many more you can research. If you're getting a desktop there is no actual computer attached. The monitor IS the computer. So basically you have a mouse, a keyboard, and a screen and that's it. Not many wires and different hassles like that. I recommend Mac's to anyone. See some of those things are what turns me away, I want to be able to work on my computer. To expand, upgrade and mess with it as I so desire. Besides until Macs become the kind of gaming platforms that PCs are there is little likelihood I would touch one. For someone who is not accustomed to working on computers or who know a lick about them, I think Macs are the best bet. They are user friendly and don't crash near as often. Of course I probably would have a higher opinion of Macs if it weren't for the fact that the majority of people who use them are the pretentious coffee house crowd who only drink import coffee and want to talk about fair trade before they try to show how anti-establishment they are. At least that has been my experience with them. I doubt you fit that mold Blue Magic.
