Mac's are like a pretty Lamborghini car shell. But the insides is a Ford. It does a few neat things with photos, but cannot match a PC in speed, nor software. (And can't handle 1gig PSD Photoshop files well.)

The hardware is WAY overpriced--laughably so--like $4000 for a mac that will do and have the power my $1800 rig cost.

Reason mac's don't get virii is cause they attack what people use the most.. But that is changing. Loads of virii are hitting mac's new OS.

I do think since they are using Intel, and becoming compatible, it's a good thing. I can do everything a mac does with Photoshop, Elements, 3DS Max, and Premiere.

Don't get me wrong, they are nice. I *Started* out on a Commodore 64, and had an Amiga (A god system at the time, with the best graphics--before CGA and EGA, yet looked GREAT!)
