So why don't you spend tons of money on a computer with worse specs than a Windows based one because it's got a "trendy" operating system that's popular with all the kids that go to Art School.

Uh, I find it to be a great operating system for software development.  doodhuh;

Good luck getting revision control, SSH, most command-line utilities, and all of that working on Windows.

Dumbass.

oh god lol

and I'm waiting for the argument of "why buy a mac if all u is gonan do is browse da internet"

Why pay for a damn windows license if that's all you're going to do. Just buy a nettop and install linux.


OS X is a great OS and it's not "lol trendy for art kids". It provides top-notch tools for art+engineering type students and jobs.  Just because Mippo can't operate a Unix system doesn't mean "it's trendy".

even better solution: get a compatible laptop/netbook or build a nice PC and install OS X. it's easy to do these days.

if the hardware is compatible it's pretty easy with snow leopard. google "[your netbook make/model] osx86" or something

Unless you need the extra power for practical purposes, I don't see why anyone would get a PC over a laptop.  doodhuh;

I really like how the unibody MacBook Pros look, and OSX is great, but they're really expensive.  saddood;
I'm thinking I'll probably just get a nice looking laptop and run Hackintosh and some sort of Linux on it, along with Windows 7.
