a recording program for both mac and pc?

You guys missed the point of me comparing it to a Dell, just as I expected... I could also order a G4 without the LCD screen, super drive and buy them cheeper somewhere else. But I didn't. Apple, as a company, compares a lot more closely to dell then it does to your local store. I didn't go around trying to find the cheapest mac and the cheapest PC, I went to the two leaders in both categories. You really can't expect Apple to try to compete with the cheapest PC sellers (such as local ones) because that would be suicide. Also, I'm not doubting your site, brzillian, but I have heard a lot of horror stories about people buying it off of sites similar to the one you posted.
 
Extensions? OSX don't need no stinking extensions =)

But I have been trying to stay away from Micro$oft (and AOL) as much as possible... I deleted Internet Explorer off of my mac, and only use Mozilla and Omniweb. I also got rid of AIM and use Adium instead...
 
"Asking a couple friends is research? Wouldn't you prefer get the opinion of a few hundred people, rather than a few?" if 2 friends order a computer off of the site and say it was fine, why cant i? i looked at all the details of their website...which, i must say, is quite misleading, and i emailed them as well. if your buddy says "you've gotta get this soundcard" and you see it and like it, is there reason for you to make sure 100 other people think the same?

hahahahaha. you people are great. only a bunch of guys would argue for HOURS about whether pcs are better than macs. who gives a crap? let me settle this okay? the fact is macs are COOLER. they might not be faster or cheaper. but come on -- neither is a rolls-royce. mac's operating system and hardware have style.
fact is ALL our computers can do virtually the same thing. i have a crap load of computers in my house -- one sony vaio laptop, a sony vaio desktop, an imac, a g4 powerbook, and a g3 desktop. they all do basically the same thing. yeah, my laptop is faster than my imac. doesn't mean i didn't do 30 track recordings on it with vstis and plugins up the wazoo. yeah, it doesn't have pci slots, but my motu 828 will kick most pci audio cards' asses. the truth is the speed of your computer and the number of realtime plugins it can handle isn't gonna make you a better songwriter or engineer. now honestly, i want to save you guys the trouble, especially charger, who is acting like he's defending his honor or something...
NEW STUPID ARGUMENT: COKE VS. PEPSI
 
Clearly: Coke

NEW STUPID ARGUMENT: COKE VS. PEPSI

If you look at www.sodalab.com, you'll see that the most recent benchmarks give Coke the edge. In the following categories, Coke easily outdistanced Pepsi:

Carbonation
Redness of Can
Ubiquity of Logo
Use of non-Britnney named spokespeople

Now pepsi has tried to spin these results, but to no avail. Simply put, if you drink Pepsi, you are a maroon nitwit. If you drink Coke, you're really smart and can probably build your own 6-pack containers.

Yes. If one person out of 100 has a problem with it, I want to know what that problem is. Call me anal, but I obviously have less computer problems than you do.
the fact is macs are COOLER.
If you were referring to temperature, you may have a point. If you were referring to your opinion that you think Macs are "cooler", then how does that make it a fact?

To be honest, I've never cared how cool my computer looks. As long as it works, I'm happy. If you want to spend more money to get a colored plastic case with less expandability, then by all means (note - that is not limited to Mac cases).
 
We're having a mature argument about our opinions, and no one is forcing you to read it. You're stupid comments about god knows what don't help your position much either.

huh?
I have both mac and pc platforms, I use both platforms, and they both have their high points and their low points. But no one who has actually tried them side by side can argue that you get better price/performance with a mac, and that was my point.

It's got nothing to do with honor. Anyway, who the hell are you appearing and suddenly calling me out after the dust has settled? Why feel the need to call me out, after not even beginning to have a meaningful dialogue with me, or in the conversation?

Fuck off!!

Don't even start talking about honor, without having some yourself and at least engaging in the conversation. There's a difference between discussing people's arguments and facts and slamming people for no reason. From now on, I'll just ignore your mindless blather for the waste of space it is.
 
hahaha, charger, you're great. you're right. probably nothing to do with honor......(small penis, perhaps?)
sincerely,
your BIGGEST fan
