but short hand does have a point: Mac stuff is just unrightfully expensive for what you get. I would have no problem paying for a mac if it was around the same price tag as a comparable spec PC machine.

Correct, it is and is one of the reasons I had my x6800 box running hackentosh before pulling the trigger on the 24" imac (which I got via openbox for under $1750) direct from apple.

[Coleman]

what are the specs for your 24" imac?

[rudedog]

4 gigs of ram ( I upgraded it from 2)
500 G HD
NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GS with 512MB memory

it's not necessarily that I hate Macs. The only thing I dont really like about them is the file sorting. PC's tree sorting makes so much more sense than Mac's picture-esque way of doing things. I more so hate the company Apple than their product. They suffer from short man syndrome and act tough when they don't deserve to. I love using Macs for my audio production stuff I do for track mixing and sound recording, but it's just BS that they are so much more expensive than the PC equivallent.

plus apple have pretty much ignored the gaming market for ever.
