You can't really compare a MAC to a PC due to the OS. Does the engine in a BMW make it better than a Mercedes? :)

Both Windows & MAC OS can be installed on either. But, since I prefer to use Linux (and FreeBSD, which is what MAC OSX is build on) does that make me inferior? Not at all. My argument was towards the hardware of a MAC, compared to a PC. What OS is on either is irrelevant. Cause the next question would be which graphics program one uses, and if the ones on MAC as superior to any other available (free or commercial, and whether it can work on MAC or not.).


P.S. For what it's worth, I've been working in the IT industry for about 11 years with extensive experience no both. PC's have a lot more benefit than the looks of the box they come in.

It's got nothing to do with 'sales reps'. ( and we've never seen a sales rep, ever) It's got to do with better speed, better color handling capabilities, better reliability and ease of use, plus the fact that most repro houses are far more Mac savvy than they are PC.
In your country, yes. Don't always assume that cause how you do things, is how everyone else around the world does it. Nor are other countries the same as yours.

It's the difference between amateurs and pros, basically. I assume you're not the latter. Nothing wrong with being an amateur. You're an amateur, you've got a graphic amateurs computer. End of.

ouch, that's a low blow, especially from an elite professional. Don't get me wrong, but don't judge others according to your own standards. it's lame.

Go to any professional designers and see what they're using. ( as opposed to the mainly amateurs who hang out here)
(Hint, it won't be a PC)

Sure, but that's only cause the MAC / graphics / etc sales reps sell MAC's as better / faster / prettier than PC's. It will be hard for a MAC to beat my PC's performance, considering I have a Core 2 Quad 9300 CPU, 4GB DDRII 800Mhz RAM and 2x Gefore 9600 GT 3D cards :)

in some countries MAC's are still within reasonable prices, but in our country, since it's not such a popular product yet, it's much more expensive than what it would cost in most other countries.

General Stock Discussion / Re: How do you back up your images?
« on: January 30, 2009, 04:16 »
I backup all photos to a in-house server, and then from there to USB attached HDD, which I lock in a safe once done, so I at least have 3 copies of each :)

I still prefer PC over MAC, purely cause it's easier to upgrade a PC, and more companies stock PC compatible components.

Although, with the new MAC's available, this will probably soon change. Yet, in our country MAC is seriously over-priced.

Ok, I have a question on this, where can one find out what the manufacturers have to say about such copyright, where the logos have been removed (via photoshop?)? And when do you know if it's sage to upload a photo of say a printer, for example?

Let's say I have a photo of an office, and there's a PC & printer on the desk (and some other stuff), but I remove the brands / logos from the items. When is it safe to upload such a photo?

I like your website, it's clean-cut and to the point. The colors also work well, and it's pleasing to the eyes. Well done :)
