I don't think its the computers so much, as it is the OS.

Hey if you use IM programs such as aol/yahoo/icq/msn i suggest downloading "Adium" very nice customizable IM program and nice and sleek. As for HMT forum on Safari or Firefox on a mac it looks great, what more can I say. If you need anything i've been using mac's for years so hit me up with any questions.

<- die hard windows

mac is lame as far as im concered. i got steve a job right here in my pants.

ive never had any problems with ANY windows operating system.

2000/NT my fav, but XP is just as good.

sometimes i think they go too far with the little gagets in XP though

2000 and NT are the best in my books. ME is the worst, i'd rather run 3.11 for workgroups

I'm using a G4 w/a gig or ram...yeah, it owns.
My advice w/the architecture software is find out from other users if theres any problems w/versions of osX. I'm running pro tools and the biggest agrivation is mac wants to install update bundels that conflict w/core audio and my software version. So once I have everything running tip-top, I don't install any updates what-so-ever, if it ain't broke, don't fix it.

oh, and since someone brought up safari, heres my question. I was able to bring in all my internet bookmarks from my PC into safari no prob BUT i really want to bring them into fire fox and I just can't do it. I've spent quite a bit of time and still, no go. Any suggestions?

I'll keep that in mind, I've played around with OS X a little bit and I like it but I don't know ---- about it yet. So, I'm sure I'll have plenty of questions for you.
I have no problem with Windows, nor am I struggling to use a Windows box by any means. However I'm just tired of all the little quirks and stuff I have to deal with all the time, I had planned on buying a laptop soon anyways and I kind of want to move back to a simpler user experience. If it makes any sense I want to be dumb and not have to fiddle with things to get them to work....as far as my pc goes. I really love the all of the Macintosh styling, everything is very sleek and refined. OS X is extremely powerful from what I've seen and most professionals who do image editing or anything with liberal arts have historically used Mac's for all their work. Besides all the same software I would be required to use on a PC to do architecture is available on the Mac, and I'm not totally sure but I think Mac's are preferred.
