Toshiba M55 Satellite. As Mr. Jarrell here has already mentioned, I couldn't justify the price difference between a PC and Mac, especially since I had to pay for this out of pocket after my last one was stolen and uninsured. I'd never had this happen to me at any point before so I really don't know why it happened, since Ableton has always been very stable for me. Ah well, live and learn, and make sure to save before rendering :)
I'm gonna redo it later after class I think, now that I'm not so pissed off anymore :p |

Blake you have to do a little more information diving than simply checking out the specs and comparing them straight up to a Windows based PC... It's really Apples and Oranges (no pun intended). :)
And I wouldn't go back to Windows from Mac in a million years... True that OS X Tiger has some isses, but for the most part if people have kept up with their updates, they aren't a problem anymore.
Edit: Also, it doesn't really sound like you have a ton of experience working on proper Mac's, I guess if I were you, I just wouldn't make blanket generalizations about something you don't really ever use outside of a classroom setting (where we all know that computers, PC or Mac, have a tendency to get ed rather quickly).
To each their own, but I just don't see a really strong argument from you as to why people shouldn't be using Mac's...

being an apple user, would you suggest picking up an apple care plan?
$349!!!! wtf? worth it? [/thread-jack] |
Yes. Let's just say that in the third year, or whenever some sort of new generation comes out, you'll be very, very happy with how comprehensive that extended warranty is... ;)
I'm not usually the champion of extended warranties, but Apple's is money... |
