For a number of reasons, I do not want a mac.


list them, i'm very curious.


-my advisor mentioned that windows is better for my program than macs. and I busted my ass to get into this program, so I'm not going Dave's route, nor will I buck the advice of my advisor when the bulk of my work will be done online.
-believe it or not, I've had horrible experiences with macs. One crashed at my old job and it was a massive problem that set back a major project for some time.
-It's a personal preference, mostly. I don't like the setup. I've worked on them for a couple years, and I still find it awkward. I'm not wild about the prospect of Vista, mind you, but I still like it better than OSX. Yes, everyone can tell me that OSX is the better system, but like I said, it's personal preference.
-The benefits don't justify the extra cost to me.


Now you gotta tell us what you're studying!

Vista isn't all that bad, as long as you have enough RAM guys. In fact it's kinda cool.

I guess I'm a PC?

Maybe I have the wrong idea, but library + required PC sounds to me like you're purchasing the master's equivalent of a rotary phone?

I use Macs and PCs all day long, I have them at work and home and, not surprisingly, they both have their own advantages and disadvantages. However, I can do without the superiority complex of the Mac idolaters. They're not that fucking great for the price.
