Computer crashed again, ordered an iMac lol.

Welcome to the dark side! I made the switch in 2009 and haven't looked back.

And what comes to "not knowing how to use a PC"... Trust me, ten years ago you couldn't find a more horrible geek than me without a lot of effort. I've gone through it all, dozens of Linux setups, a couple of BSD setups, even fiddled around with BeOS and OS/2 for a while, SysOp'ing a dial-up BBS (PCBoard for the win!), modding and hacking pretty much anything I could get my hands on (both software and hardware) and so on and so on. I'm kinda surprised I turned out even somewhat normal. Maybe switching to the Mac camp was one of the factors...

That's what I was thinking... I know my stuff right about computers, but still don't want to deal with them, just use them as a tool. I really don't care about the technical part, as soon as my workflow is steady.

To a computer lover, it can be actually fun to repair stuff, but for me it is literally wasting time and money, delaying projects and all that stuff.

So yeah, I love Windows 7, I was really comfortable on it, but I got enough tech repairs in more than 12 years...

Cheers!!

You are a poor Hungarian student, you shouldn't have money for a new mac!

I just eat dumplings and gulyás all the time to afford it!

That or things in breadcrumbs

(insert new member disregarded statement here, haha)

as long as the computer is studio dedicated, there isnt gonna be a problem with either mac or pc, but if you browse websites and use it for other random shit, both can easily crash. i had to terminal it up on my guitarist's mac because he got a virus. yes, a mac got a virus. With me being poor as hell, ive gone with windows forever, but have emulated mac and linux and shit. only real reason i would consider buying a mac is that it generally comes out of the box without 3rd part bloatware, making it able to be molded anyway you want and not having a bunch of background processes running, oh, and logic is pretty sick. But a clean install of Win7 can work just as fine. it all comes down to preference, almost the same way how religion comes down to faith
