Hi, I'm wondering what your thoughts are on the topic of Mac vs Windows, Mac is insanely overpriced, and people I know aren't really happy about it.

On the other hand, trying never hurts, but paying ALOT of money for trying does. So I can either get a mac next summer, or another pc with windows, for half the price of the mac.

Your idea's?

Unfortunately graphic designers are for the most part incapable of discussing this in a civilized manner. So we don't allow these threads anymore. You should be able to get your answers here:

and here's the short answer from our FAQ:

Question: Which is better, mac or pc?

Answer: Both have their uses in graphic design. While Macs have traditionally been considered "THE" tool for graphic design, either system is acceptable in the industry these days. It’s not which system you use, so much as how you use it. The quality of our work is NOT defined by our hardware. Mac vs. PC debates have really been done to death and are not well received.
