Omniroth Posted May 9, 2002 Share Posted May 9, 2002 I would go with windows. There is little produced for the Macintosh anymore. Used to they were used for business, but later became obsolete to Windows and there is almost nothing created for it anymore. Linux is also like Macintosh, rarely used anymore and little is made for it. Your best bet would be with windows. More is made for it, including the most games. (For Mac, there are only a few games. nothing like what Win. has.) Question answered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Posted May 9, 2002 Share Posted May 9, 2002 Bah, it's a dern shame... Macs are so much better... But Microsoft, those monopolistic bastards, turn out so much CRAP it's not funny... I dunno about XP, but I know virtually every other Windows OS is crappy... Save Win3.1 >.< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shy Posted May 9, 2002 Share Posted May 9, 2002 [color=green]I used to have a mac, but this was years ago. I think it was called a "performa." Macs are cool, they are much simpler to use than PCs, but the problem is that very little software is compatible with them, or has that changed? I haven't used a mac in about 3 years...[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RicoTranzrig Posted May 9, 2002 Share Posted May 9, 2002 The new OS X is very stable...using UNIX as it's base coding, covered up with the aqua desktop...even though it doesn't have many games for it...it's more of a "professional's" tool for use with graphic design, biotech, and movie/music apps...powerful, but costly.

SSJ Gotenks ok Posted May 9, 2002 Share Posted May 9, 2002 I would have to say windows i never liked using mac's!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Harlequin Posted May 9, 2002 Share Posted May 9, 2002 I've had a mac for years now. You have no idea how glad I was to get a decent computer. If you're going to get a mac, you'l nedd to get an Imac at least. Keep lots of it open for conversion refits. They're a lot better than Windows, but you'll be stuffed finding software. Find a few freeware sites on the net and you're set though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest cloricus Posted May 9, 2002 Share Posted May 9, 2002 Get a pc, best to get an xp box because linux/unix and macs aren?t mainstream yet or any more in the case of the mac. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sara Posted May 9, 2002 Share Posted May 9, 2002 Shy--We still have a Performa. It's maybe eight years old... o_O But I love my iMac. There is considerably less software available for it, but things are getting better. If you're looking for a lot of games or whatnot, a Mac isn't for you, though. In my experience--having only had contact with other computers through school, isn't [i]that[/i] ironic--Macs are more reliable. It may just be that I now what I'm doing with them.

BlueGender Posted May 9, 2002 Share Posted May 9, 2002 I would suggest you going with windowas because it is easiest to learn how to use in my opinion. I do not like Mac's I am more of a IBM style PC man myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Char! Posted May 9, 2002 Share Posted May 9, 2002 I have to say that my experiences with Macs have not been pretty. Windows are by far better, at least in my opinion. While we're on the subject of computers, I came across this really old, primitive DOS laptop. It was really weird. Yeah, that's about all I have to say about the DOS...

DaRk DrAgOn Posted May 10, 2002 Author Share Posted May 10, 2002 Ok, i appreciate all of ya'lls reply's and help. I'm not necessarily looking for games, but a couople of games wouldn't be bad. Well, next time i go to a computer store i'll just have to see what i think about Macs. Thanks a lot for ya'lls help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkM Posted May 10, 2002 Share Posted May 10, 2002 It dosn't really matter to me. But if you do get a mac get a G4 Cube. I is the bets one by far,yet very costly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zidane11 Posted May 10, 2002 Share Posted May 10, 2002 Nope, I don't like them. I think that the other ones are better. Just get what ever you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mitch Posted May 14, 2002 Share Posted May 14, 2002 [color=red]My school has Macintosh IMACS and they [b]SUCK[/b], they always run really slow and I just don't like them. If I were you I wouldn't get a Mac at all if uou can get a Windows instead, I just prefer Windows. Also, Linux is pretty nice to (mainly because it is free).[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gokou Alpha Posted May 14, 2002 Share Posted May 14, 2002 As you can see there is two side of the coin. And as i can see. Either you do some research of you own or like almost each reply is coming up heads or tails. So why don't you flip a coin. LoL Btw I have a mac a iMac and love it. Here the site check it out for your self [url]http://www.apple.com[/url] . Also there a new iMac out and it is incredible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
