If you're talking to me, it's too early to tell for sure, but I like it so far. For life is hard to tell. In the field of technology/gadgets, something more amazing comes along all too often.

is it really that surprising that you are happy upgrading from a computer that has been outdated for like, a decade? i think ANY computer from the last 5 years should make you ecstatic.

man I love my PC. Where else can you get daily crashes, freezes that cause the screen to trace the path of windows when you move them, or all the viruses, trojans, adware and spyware your heart desires?

Just goes to show that people instantly assume macs are better than pcs when they compare a 2007 mac to a 1999 pc..

My pc never crashes, never freezes, never gets viruses, trojans, adware, spyware... the problem with your pc is u must look at **** on it and you own a crappy pc. Honestly if u people got a good pc u wouldnt have these problems. instead you get stupid, buy a mac and then boast how a $2000 mac is better than a $200 pc. No wonder...

I have a new iMac and like it a lot. It's super fast. So fast, its awesome. Really great design as well.

once you get one not just play with it at a store use it for a month it has
a learning curve it will be hard to go back and if you are not happy it will
at least let you run windows in parallel or bootcamp.

If your Windows machine is crashing, freezing, getting viruses, trojans, and spyware, it's because you haven't taken care of it properly

The point is that a Mac doesn't require taking care of for stuff like that.

See ya

I don't even "take care" of my windows install or run an anti virus and my only crashes are when my overclock is unstable

And OS X doesn't feel bloated? If you want to tweak ANYTHING, well... you can't.

*Laughs* It's Unix... everything on OS X is tweakable.

As one example... just try to customize the Windows SP2 firewall. Compare that with ipfw's powerful rules.

How and why did this have to become an OS X vs Windows debate? Argh....

I thought head-fi got over these types of threads a couple of years ago!

Mention Bose or Mac, and it turns into a war.



That's not a bash on Mac, it's just the nature of the threads. Bose is still horrid and Mac is respectable
