MAC USERS!!!

Who else? I know I'm not the only one around these parts sportin' a G4 (hopefully soon a G5)!

[Smulkin]

Dreadfully sorry, Moneypenny. I've used them in the past - but for too long I've been a build-yer-own kinda guy. I know Mle's in your camp though - and we've a couple users with mac right in their names to boot.

This is going to spawn a "show us your rig" thread isn't it

oh yes, i'm a mac girl all the way. i have a dual g4 right now. pretty nice machine if i may say so myself. i use both mac and pc at work--i'm a web designer so i need to test sites on both platforms to make sure that everything is working properly all around. for the most part i do the designing on the mac and test and do other stuff on the pc like send out mass e-mails, etc.

macs are best for kids to learn how to use computers. My mother is a computer lab technician for an elementary school and all they use is macs...the entire school. Macs were the first type of computer I have ever used and I still like them........but I got stuck using a crappy HP. Seems like all the engineering software is not made for macs.

There are those in my family that are die hard Mac fans.. to the point of being 'racist' against windows. *lol*

In fact, we still have an OLD Mac SE/30. I first learned how to use computers on that thing.. when I was 2. We also had a 286. Ah.. memories.

My mom just got a brand new fancy Mac. The name escapes me, but there is no tower, the motherboard and everything is contained right behind the monitor (which is a lovely 17' widescreen).

Personally I'm using a dinosaur. It's a '98 HP with Windows xp. It's a blazin' 500 MHz. My dad is helping me build a new computer.

I have a Gateway, but it has 3000 parts from other computers. And, it's a nice big fat POS. *grumble*

Hmm, well, the first home computer I ever had was an Apple, but it was a IIe, before there was such a thing as Mac. We then moved on to a Zenith PC and I've only used Apple when forced to since. But then, I've always been one to swap components, write scripts, etc., and that's a lot easier for me to do on non-Apple platforms.

The first computer we had was an IBM PcJr. My friend had an apple IIc I've used Mac's, but I haven't messed with them since the early 90's. I wouldn't count the stints I did in the computer lab. Every mac we had in the computer lab seemed to be broken about 90% of the time for some reason or another. I haven't messed around with the new Mac OS but I hear it's pretty sweet.

I just work on a Win XP machine at home, built it myself. Not 100% top of the line, but it'll handle just about any game other than HL2. In fact, it could probably handle HL2, but you'd have the crank the game down quite a bit.

I myself am a billy fan. I really never had any problem with windows that everyone talks about security holes, slowness, and crashing. And trust me I have gone deep into the computer world pushed my computer to its limits good old windows has never really let me down. I guess if you keep some brute force under the hood it works good. Plus im a gamer I really have no choice.
