Yeah I know it'd been done before, but now there are a few more Mac users on these forums and a few more potential Mac users, I thought I'd re-start it and get your opinions.

So, are Macs better than PC's? Or vice-versa?

Discuss, argue, shout and scream.

Ok.. erm, but then you can buy a piece of software that will allow you to play and use any Microsoft software package including any game!

Mac WINS!

All I have to say is that in my opinion Macs are better for designing and what not but they are crap for playing games but they are good for making them.

PCs in my opinion are great for playing games, crap for designing and alright for making games.

Both are good for certain things and crap for another, there isn't really much point arguing about it, just chill out.

No, I just can't be bothered to argue anymore... so you like your PC, I hate Windows. End of!

Oh and Armitage, yes the Cube has been pulled of the market in the UK (not US) and the iMacs are still selling very welll, although the newly upgraded versions aren't doing as well as were hoped...

Wasnt it the cube that Apple droppped because of bad sales?

I also understand that the iMac isnt doing as well as it should be?

MAXX PCs have ludicrously high specifications...like I said, my new box, well under £1000, including a GeForce3.

Are you running out of arguments here er-no? "SHUT UP!" and "The cube is better!". Convince me ;-)
