i use both

WINDOWS SUCKS

GO FOR MAC

its more user friendly
has better graphic/sound capabilities
crashes hardly ever

only downside i can think of is it has less programs then a
PC

so if youre a gamer... its not that good

if you are into making music/visual stuff it ROCKS

I love Windows, I've never had any problems or annoyances...
and I only have Windows 98! It does everything I want it to,
and nothing to piss me off.

XP Pro = good

'98 S.E. = Good

ME = Devil's Spawn

i have xp pro and haven't had any problems at all with it.

wheras, two weeks ago i was using a mac for this project i
was involved with and it was the slowest shittiest piece of
shit ever..
well, not really, but it was super slow.

mac sucks for upgradability, compatibility, software,
plugins and about a hundred other things..I am on WIN98 and
she's steady as a rock..2k is even better..

macs suck, Win XP pro is the shit, learn to love it because
it is the best.

besides, windows is user friendly as fuck, i dont know what
all those mac people are on about, u could teach windows to
a fuckin unborn goat.

an yes, win ME is the devil incarnate. If a copy of this
software ever comes into your hands, the only acceptable
choice would be to ritually burn it in sacrifice to the
angry PC gods and hope that their anger is appeased.

Once you go mac you never go back

Nothing sweeter than OS X running on a fast G4. I"ve had it
up and running for about 2 months without a restart.

Macs are the only way to go for content creation, like
making music & graphics!

windows XP was made for dummies.

the only good thing about XP is the look and they ripped it
from OS X.

I prefer mac, i use PC... but i'd use linux if I could

Windows is allright when it doesn't crash...even xp crashes
alot but not as badly as 98 usually just a program doesnt
work well..

Xp crashes a lot? Ive had XP on my comp for about 3 months
without turning it off and it hasnt crashed once.

As for macs being superior for audio/graphics, that info is
about 2 years out of date. I have both and my PC kiciks my
macs ass half way to nantucket

i dunno what your talking about windows xp pro has never
crashed for me. software has crashed some times but because
it's protected memory the program doesn't bring down the OS.

Mac OS X is bollocks if it was anygood do you think steve
jobs would be worrying so much about how hardly anyone is
adopting it.
I've worked with many-a-macs over my lifetime and my brother
has an iMac and he never stops swearing at it cause it
crashes all the time and he loses all his graphics work.
