Dot- I'm a bit of a computer geek, and I think that a Mac would drive me crazy. I haven't tried any of the newer ones that use OS X or higher, but I couldn't stand the older ones. Or the price tag! I might save my money and invest in a color management system, though.
Well, the computer geeks I know have Macs.
If you haven't used OS X, you can't really compare it with earlier operating systems. Except that, for me, they are both fairly intuitive. OS X is extremely stable and versitile.
I've taught on both Macs & PCs, and by far, for graphics, photography, desktop publishing, and even animation these days, Macs are the computer of choice.
I've not worked on one yet, but from what I've heard, the Intel Macs are going to be even better. I think there are still some issues with running Windows on them, but that will be worked out. The issue being that you have to restart to go from one operating system to the other.
And, I've observed, you get what you pay for.
But this is an orchid forum, isn't it...
