It does not become you. I have both and the Mac is not significantly faster, and definitely not cost-effectively faster.

Not necessarily: there will be slight differences in the hardware, even between two cards consecutively off the production line, due to manufacturing tolerances. Andrew

However, I now use AMD based systems and they are definitely cost-effectively faster. If it wasn't for the system price, the Mac would be too. If I had to place them in order, then I'd go AMD, Mac, Intel. (unless I was buying a laptop in which case I'd want a Pentium M Centrino system or a PowerBook G5). -- Hecate - The Real One Hecate(a)newsguy.com Fashion: Buying things you don't need, with money you don't have, to impress people you don't like...

Here we go again... If someone asks the question... You know both AMD based computers and Mac G5s are faster and more efficient than anything Intel produces for a desktop. -- Hecate - The Real One Hecate(a)newsguy.com Fashion: Buying things you don't need, with money you don't have, to impress people you don't like... |
