As far as I know there are no top level A/V programs that are PC exclusive. For A/V Mac's still reign supreme. The gap is closing every year, but it's definitely still there.

Choice is good and if you choose Apple or Linux you just pushed MS into making a better product (hopefully not just a better commercial).

No mater what we choose competition is good for all of us.

Are you attempting to equate a Mac to a RR and a PC to the Cobalt? I'm just saying that's a completely worthless analogy.

This isn't a PC vs. Mac thread. It's about Microsoft using the ecomony to turn Apple's marketing strategy against it.

Are there any quastions?

- Why can't I two finger scroll on any windows laptop? (at least, that I've seen)
- Why is getting a MacBook to work with my TV sooooooo much easier than any xp laptop?
- Why is it so goddamn hard to resize pictures on my Mac?
- Why does office suck so bad on a Mac?
- Why is it so hard to play porn videos on a Mac?

finger scroll on windows laptop here:

you will need a compatible pad for that, one i tried that works is the one on acer aspireone.


I dont find it easier or harder to setup secondary display on a mac than a PC. As long as the connection is compatible (that you dont try to feed a analog signal into HDMI etc).


Has lightroom on mac to resize pictures, I imagine there are plenty of apps to do just that, you have to find them.


Pages is counter intuitive, this I agree. As far as I know trying from a trial install of Office on the mac, it is just like any other Office that I used... When in doubt, Neo Office.


Can't play porn on any computer? VLC.

You're wrong. Apple blows. Microsoft sucks.

yes this link says Logic is only available for the Mac, I think my point was proven

Laptop Hunters $1500 ? Lisa and Jackson get a Sony VAIO

When will Apple realize that not everyone wants to pay $2800 for a 17" notebook?
