[Fallacious Ultimatum]

I just brought my first imac and my first computer.. I mean I dont have it cause I sent it away for DOA due to some dead pixels, but besides that. What do people think about macs?

Oh yeah and another thing, I. only. just. got into gaming. I do realise that for hardcore gamers, Build your own PCs are the only way to go. But, I still think imacs are nice 'non-enthusiest' starter computers


Anyway, what do you guys think???



P.S. My computer is a...

24" (1920x1200)
2.8Ghz Core2Duo
320 GB HDD
1GB Ram
W/less Bluetooth keyboard & mice


hey.. btw is it a mouse? or only a mice , plural stuff hmmmm ....

Hmmm. Well, six months later I finally reply...

Yeah I know Apple make a crapload of bad choices (and they proabably would have died by now if not for the ipod)

But, I was curious!

I'm more of a software geek than a hardware one... so the idea of being able to boot all the main OS and try all 3rd party software was really appealing.

I think Apple really excel at Sofware development, small details just make sense to me.
It's hard to pinpoint. It's much more intuitive for me to be productive in Leopard.



pffftt.... skip that...

Just so you all know

I do have XP dualbooting, I fiddled with some virtual machines (CS:S, Trackmania, GH3) inside leopard, and they worked flawlessly, but as if had I only had 3/4 of my processor. So i didn't find using them worth it when i can just reboot.




P.S. thats BiG T not me.


Blah blah blah ... I will always use Mac OSX for work (maybe look into a hackintosh) But I plan to have a seperate gaming machine with a offering of Windows (skipping resource hungry vista )
