You can compare the two. There was a complete
difference in hardware through almost 3 decades of Apple's existence. The
switch to Intel is relatively recent and did not halt the proprietary
nature of the Mac. And therein lies the difference. You can't run
OSX on anything but a Mac, while you can run Windows on innumerable
machines from a myriad of companies. So if you like, we can say
Windows machines verses Macs. And while you may be able to
find Windows machines with better support, warranty, and build,
you won't find a better operating system than OSX. Add that to the mix and
in my few that tips the quality quotient in favor of the Mac. But if price
and choice are more important to you, go with the Windows
machine. > That's my
point. If price and choice are important to you, get
a PC. If support, warranty, and build quality is important to you,
get a Mac. My
point is that you can’t compare “PC” vs. a “Mac”. Mac is a specific brand by a
single company. “PC” refers to a broad huge spectrum of companies. In fact a
“Mac” is a PC that runs OSX. Same CPU, RAM, motherboard etc. Just a bit of
firmware in the EFI boot. You
can PCs with better support, warranty and build quality than a Mac, but it will
cost the same or more than a Mac. There are ultra-high premium PCs with custom
paint jobs, hand built components and white glove service, for a
price. stephen

film is – or should be – more like music than like fiction. It should be a
progression of moods and feelings. The theme, what’s behind the emotion, the
meaning, all that comes later. –Stanley
