Mac Users Of Mtc (apple: Go Ahead, Take A Bite!)

[marc.alan]

okay, i am starting this thread to find out who in MTC uses a Mac. iMac, eMac, iBook, PoerBook, G4, G5, macMini.... kahit ano.

 

if there are Windows PC guys, and there are multiple threads about this platform, aslo about Linux, Unix and its derivatives, then, lets start a Mac Thread. i mean Mac the computer, not the iPod, okay?

 

i dont use a mac myself, but i am familiar with one. i do, however plan to migrate to mac. im planning to get wither a macMini or an eMac later this year. i need to learn a new playing field, ika nga

 

you cold say that im looking for users who would share their mac experience and maybe further convince me to own one.

 

thank you!

I'm a mac user pero hindi ko sya ginagamit for work, personal use lang. Buy one now hanggang Power PC pa ang chip.

i read nga that the intel chip x86 pwede na sa mac. anyway, ok naman ba sya sa multimedia and word processing? desktop publishing?

ive used macs at school for about 3 years now. ive first started with imacs (the blue and tangerine "flavors"), then the g4.. and finally the g5 when they were finally released. i actually bring my own 2 button scroll mouse to school as there is no "right click" on a mac! but you can press the control key and click though.. but that just takes time..

 

multimedia work like video editing, photo, and 3d are the mac's (the g5 at least) forte. as for word processing, expect to pay a bundle for the mac version of microsoft office. unless there are pirated apps for mac out there too.

 

if youve got the money, why not?? :cool: i can stare at a g5 with that ultra yummy 30-inch cinema display all day! but as i always say, theres nothing you can do on a mac that you cant do on a pc! and dont believe people who say that macs dont crash, dont get viruses..etc..etc.. macs DO crash! they're just as prone to crashing as win-xp is. and macs DO get viruses! virus makers only stay away from macs as they only make up less than 5% of the computers in the world! thats not exactly global domination. their goal is to make as much damage as possible.. which is why they target windows pc's!

Guys need your opinion.

 

Would you recommend Ibook G4 1.2 GHz or would you go for HP X1010AL 1.3GHz centrino.

 

This would be for school.

I've been a long-time Mac User / Guru. Not much of a Guru now, though.

as my friends say (to which i totally agree!) -

WHEN YOU GO MAC, YOU DONT GO BACK!

 

i hope this thread becomes active.

m using a g4 ibook.

m not so familiar with the softwares and the functions

so maybe this thread can be of help!

thanks.

[koolkalangxyz]

thanks for your feedbacks...

i'm also planning to get an ibook G4 myself, alternative for my P4, i'd be using different interfaces. I hope this thread continues, i'm not that familiar with MAC myself.

apple is more stylish that the usual pc based laptops.

the g4's and the g5's (coming out soon) are all on wifi (i think)

much like the centrino for the pc based laptop.

however, the pc based laptops (like hp) is widely used here

and in the other asian countries. that means, compatibility with

other laptops is easier.

 

thus, i guess everthing is dependent on what purpose you need your laptop.

macs/apple computers are more for graphics while the pc based ones are

more of the all around type.

 

you can check out the capabilities of the apple computers at www.apple.com.

just wanna compare price and service sana.

thanks.

another gossip...

Dell wants to sell computers with MAC OS. Ayaw nang Apple hehehe.

for those wanting to buy a mac just because of its sleek design should really check out the centrino powered Asus W5A. 12 inch powerbooks are actually manufactured by asus believe it or not! Apple merely slaps on their logo to justify overpricing them.
