I got one, exactly one, ever, and I've been a Windows users for about 15 years...xaos

[QUOTE="deepdreamer256"][QUOTE="MGSFan92"]I didn't find it as being too costly, or overpriced. Though I redid my office downstairs, to give it a modern feel, and I thought the iMac would go well, but I really bought it for the lack of viruses. I was sick of my PC always crashing. With me always having to shell out hundreds to repair it. I figured that overall the Mac would be cheaper than constantly getting the PC fixed. So I try to lay low with the PC and just use it for it's programs. While the Mac takes up most of my internet time.jachichorro

Go for it!

[QUOTE="Jandurin"][QUOTE="MGSFan92"]You can get a special mouse for that. Though I haven't, as I just use the CTRL + click for those things, it's pretty simple once you get the hang of things. P.S. If I got everyone on this board to hate me, well I must apologize, but I just wanted to be informative and not a thorn in anyone's side...Engrish_Major

i said the same thing, but when i was looking for a laptop that i would want for college, like a really cool one, the only one that i could find that had everything i wanted and that a mac book had it was only about 200$ cheaper and it was the ugliest thing ive ever seen and way to heavy so i can see why people like macs, because i do lol.. but the biggest reason i made the switch was that viruses were getting out of hand, i kept getting him, ive had my imac for 2 years, and it still works just as well as it did the day i bought it, and its lasted about 2.3 times longer than any pc ive ever had.. so thats why i go with them plus ive got all the consoles so i play enough games as it is

I've NEVER had a virus while using a PC for >10 years...

well i never got the RROD, but that doesnt not make it an issue, i lots of people dont get viruses but im just lucky i guess, The last emachine i got was fried like 2 months after i got it

Aah. Didn't see that post. Well, LOL at someone paying hundreds of dollars to fix a virus...

IF i had $2700 i could buy a computer that could play Crysis on high with atleast 4xAA. Not a IMacangelkimne

Or build one for $1500. Can't do that with a Mac.

He was probably spending it on antibiotics.deepdreamer256

Please, Macs suck. The computers don't suck, they are good for making music production I'll give it that. But what I hate most is there advertisements, not only are they misleading but they inspire people to become elitist jerks over a computer.

The prices are ludicrous for a 20 inch LCD with a CD drive, it's an embarassment to the consumer electronic industry. I'll understand if it we're made in America, but it isn't. I could go on all day but I don't have the time.

I've never got a virus either, and I only got Antivirus a few months ago.

Why would you pay $2700 for a mac to run 5 programs, when if the programs are pretty basic you could get a PC to do the same for about $300.

I drink the Mac Kool Aid.

But I bought it because it runs ProTools amillion times better than a PC (I've used ProTools on a PC), PLUS I wanted to use Logic, which is in my opinion, the best Audio DAW you can buy.

Besides, its the dudes money. He wanted to try a Mac and has the money to do it and loves it. So your gonna go after the guy? What do you care, its not your money or your life.

I bought an iMac in February and it works magnificently. It's simple to use, and the software includes step-by-steps for everything. I don't really PC game all that much, so I decided to buy this after awhile. Yeah, $2700 may be expensive to some, but the reason I bought it was for the glossy screen, and lack of a tower. More space! If you have the money go for it. P.S. I'm a major splurger:PMGSFan92

$2700? ROFLWTF. I bought my PC for approx $1000, and it annialates any Mac in every single way. (specs in sig)

But I agree, paying $2700 for a glossy screen, more space and inferior performance is totally worth it!
