You realize that Mac are preferred computers for doing film editing,
right?

That's pretty demanding.

Makes you wonder what they could do with a more powerful PC, and why
they aren't ... that is pretty demanding, seeing the logic!

Some do use PCs, John.

But there is more to overall productivity that simply reading numbers
from a benchmark.


Linux for DEVELOPMENT
Mac for ANGRY BIRDS AND iTUNES
Palm for MOBILITY
Windows for PRODUCTIVITY (with occasional hiccups)

Linux is actually the system I would choose to have in the most wide
spread use in all areas of computing ... however, since it is given away
for free, fools cannot recognize the value ... hence, not a large enough
market share to interest game developers and other large market share
uses ... it is a crying shame and demonstrates the truth to the
statement, "85%+ of American are idiots."

But, dual boot to windows 7 and linux is well worth it ...

John:

Mac OS X does pretty much everything that Linux does plus it was better
support from software and hardware manufacturers.
