Anandtech get rid of the "Macintosh" section and review the Macs together with all other PC's?


What say you?

What's the diff?
AT is a hardware site, when Macs have PC (x86) hardware bits, why will they be any different?
Unless AT sets up a software shop, in which case Macs could go there, the Mac section should go :p

QFT. They're both PC's, but it's just a common (accepted?) way of describing 'not apple' computers.

Wait a minute.
See this section of AT?
Why aren't Macs in there already?
Macs are systems, unless I am mistaken, so why not already include them in the Systems section of the AT website?
If/when they get Intel bits, they should definately be included in Systems, rather than their own section.

You see, this is what I mean!!! :p Its allways been a PC, still allways been... something else. Now there just isn't anything to diffrentiate!!! Hardware wise it's no different to anything else anymore.

Software is another thing. Now we can have the exact same setup, and see whether OSX/XP/Linux fares better!

I'm REALLY looking forward to seeing the future comparisons! :p

Yes we can, but Macs still don't need their own section when we have a hardware section and a systems section.
Macs come as systems and they use hardware, why do they need another section just for Mac systems or Mac hardware when they can be put in existing sections?
