My youngest son is a hardcore Mac user. I guess I should keep this material away from him until he's older (he's only 25 now).

Oh no, let him read. But let him read this first : http://spl.haxial.net/mac-fanatics/

This is a good and sobering remedy for Mac fanaticism.

Hey I love Mac, but too much is too much :)
 
I am a Mac User. as well. . My attitude is... what works for you??? Then buy it.

Mac works for me. For me to go out and buy a PC to do music would cost me way more than what people tell you. I read where a comparable machine would cost only 1500 beans. I disagree.

All the software I'd have to buy... Just not worth it too me.

I'll stick to my macs where for more speed I buy a new computer.

But for the PC guy who is trenched, he'd experience the same frustrating thing.

BTW I use a PC to run Giga sampler. :)
 
I have the G5 dual and i love it. Sure i know i paid to much for what i actually got, but i am happy to pay extra for that everyday woowaa....working with my g5 experience :D .....

I am probably one of the happy few to be able to spend that kind of money on the woowaa factor and not regretting it. I mean...i worked at home on a powerbook for ages but went on to pc platform because i couldn't justify it private to keep using a mac...but in the studio...it's business and since most of the studiogear has a big woowaa factor, i am very happy with my dearly overpriced g5...

woowaa haha
