Hardware wise, a Mac is a PC to a point. Mac users pay a little extra UP FRONT to get hardware that has drivers that work. A cost benefit analysis would show that Macs are actually cheaper. OSX is basically unix-ish (read linux) except that you don't have to worry about drivers, and you have programs that work. You can however get just as geeky on OSX as you can on linux if you want to, you just don't have to. On linux every geek with a c compiler forks their own version of the program and you have 12 different versions that all do parts of what you want but not everything. On windows, you just keep getting the promise that the next version will fix all the bugs - oh and you have to pay for the "upgrade". The only thing I can't do on the Mac better than Windows is play directx games, but I've switched to an xbox 360 for gaming anyway. smc

I've had a PC since they first came out - 1983 or 84. I work in IT I've implemented thousands of pc/windows server/exchange/sql systems I switched to mac 6 months ago. It was one of the best things I've EVER done. I don't have to go home and patch/scan/update/worry if my wife f*d up the computer by downloading a 0day virus/trojan/malware etc. Most of the programs actually work, and are intuitive. That being said, I still use windows at work because I have to smc

Not supposed to post on the first page, or not at all? I was looking for the "no arguments" thread.

Hey any B-Day is a happy one. There are a limited number of them, hope yours was one of the best.

Very limited skils here, but I would say asian copy. This whole "asian or genuine ETA" thing is getting brutal. Even though I would say asian, the balance spokes look ETA. I'm gonna give up and just order cheaper asian versions from now on. smc

Hello everyone. I just ordered a new UPO, and I was wondering if anyone sells superluminova relumed hands and dials that I could buy and replace myself? (preferrably with the correct omega logo) Thanks!
