Er, not quite true. You're leaving pieces in your System folder ... which you may or may not ever be able to find. Depends if the developers want to let you. For instance, if a program is a trial program, you just can't throw it away and start anew. Yeah, those installers arent putting it ALL in your hands.
I like mac, I like PC. I have Windows 7 and it reminds of me OS9 on a mac.
Macs are solid, no doubt. But now that I'm goofing around with Windows, it does seem like you have a bit more control.
AS FAR AS BUILDING. Sure you can get all those parts cheaper, but, come on, you're going to have more headaches with a FrankenPC for sure. Unless you're very, very lucky or a very, very good builder. Whenever I take on a "project" be it home construction, electronics, guitar, audio .. whatever... there's always one little piece of the puzzle that goes KABOOM. "Hey, where'd this extra screw come from?"
