ugh. The ONLY thing macs have that PC’s don’t is final cut pro. Screw them for anything else. Sorry. If the software base was there, and they weren’t priced for kings, I might pick one up. I’d rather build a PC any day. ---

Well, of course it’s not the ONLY thing, but what exclusive programs are worth using? ProTools is windows complaint now too… so I haven’t seen anything worth it besides final cut pro… which isn’t that big of a deal because Premiere works fine for now. ---

Premiere, backed by the fact that Adobe is amazing. And that I can build the exact same computer (specs wise) of a G5 for 400 dollars less (I have priced it many times). I have no reason to ever want a Mac.
