#WHEN DID THE MAC VS PC COMMERCIALS START PC#

I am a PC user but have done work on Mac's so I have a little knowledge of both. This is exactly the discussion I was looking for. Like the iMacs that look like easter eggs. I find most of their designs a little too 'fruity' for me. I have to say the worst thing about the Apples is the unecessarily large price tag. While the G4 is an elegant CPU design, it does not have the brute force of PC processors which rely on their FPU for most calculations.ДЄpple computer are not all bad.

One of the reasons the Mac is supposed to be 'faster' in graphics programs is because it has a 'VPU' (Vector processing unit) and special media extensions based on super-computing.

It sounds like Apple may end up to be a PC clone if they don't play it safe. The Mac just isn't what it used to be when compared to the evolution of the PC.ДЄnother intersting tid bit is if the Mac is so great and Apple really has something going for them, then why are they switching over to Intel/AMD processors? This is some pretty shocking news that has recently cropped up. But now I feel that this is just old propaganda that has stuck around for a few years and remains the last bit of any substance Pro-Mac users have to cling to. People usually recommend Apple computers for 'Video editing' and 'Graphics' and I feel that at one time, this was justified. The Mac sports some good technology and is built on a very solid platform. I'm pretty sure the Athlon would mop the floor from what I've experienced. The G4 is faster than modern PC processors clock for clock, but in a battle of 1.4GHz G4 vs Athlon 2800+. They really do 'feel' faster than a comparable clocked PC usually (500MHz PowerPC vs 500MHz PC, for example), but the fact is Apple just doesn't have speeds fast enough to make up for the difference between 3GHz and 1.5GHz right now. I can tell you that recent Apples cannot match the tops speeds of current desktops. I have had the pleasure of getting famliar with Macs recently. Is Apple lying to people and really selling nice cases and eye candy or is really Machintosh an option comparing it with the pc you could build up with the same price tag? Now really, this is not about being mac or being pc, it's about truth. Apple's website show some sort of benchmark saying the apple pc is 30% faster than Dell Dimension 8250. The second one is a comparision of that same $3,600 Powerpc with the $2,964 Dell Precision Workstation 350.

The first one is the homesite of the new PowerPC G4, dual 1.45 CPU.

My question is, if you ask anyone that uses a mac, specially graphic designers and video editors, they'll tell you that his mac can beat my lousy windows pc without taking a sweat. He told me that the iMac was faster and so, besides it's so nice an so beautifull. I asked him why did he buy a mac when he could get one of the new HP laptops. One of my friends bought a new iMac laptop.
