All macs run smoother though. Because they all use premium components.

when you can get better specs for 700$ rather 2000$
However today I was brutally raped by a door handle, and none of my friends helped me up off the floor after ten minutes, instead they all teabaged me, all 10 of them...

Better quality, better support. Granted, macs are extremely expensive, hence why I'm hackintosh.

My PC only cost me £465, and it is a quad core with 4GB ram and 4870, and I can max out crysis,  now im pretty sure a mac book pro, the 15inch and 17inch versions might be able to handle it.

But then agian they cost around £1500 - £2000

And how many laptops do you know can do that?
+ Decent battery life.

Macs hardware is expensive. But for good reason. The build quality is superior.

And yeah. I'm a hackintosh too. I don't earn enough to spend £200 on a laptop. £1000 (minimum) is out of the question for me :P.
When I get disposable income. I promise. I will buy the hardware xD.

My brothers dell laptop has almost identical specs to the really expensive macbook pro yet it cost £600, and i'd say the one he got is good quaility

Dont get me wrong, macs are great, i just think of them as like designer clothing compared to normal clothes, but compared to pcs. You can get a much better spec machine for less money, but you don't because of the brand

And a Whole 30 minutes of battery :O lmao.

And yeah, they are kinda "Designer" computers.
Bit like when the iPods first came out. You had to have this £200 mp3 player. Or you weren't cool.

Apple computers just aren't well advertised.
Windows advertises the crap out of everything.
Apple is more like "Yeah, we exist too... Uh... Think different?"

Thanks W-Gaming, you made my day.

Not that I've had any of those problems. And I have the same kind of Mac he drop-kicked xD.
Point is Macs are expensive PCs now. None of that "PPC pwns teh Pentiumz lol" BS anymore.
If you have to reinstall OSX on your Mac, (which is very rare compared to reinstalling Windoze). Everything works out the box... None of that finding the driver bull:censored:. I mean, who wants to do that? I'm the only person in my family immediate family. Including Grandparents, who knows what a driver is. Sure I get money for fixing their computers.
Only problem concerning a Mac, I have ever had to deal with was replacing a superdrive. The guys a pro photographer and burned CDs like mad. And this is an old G4. Which only recently had this problem.
If you had a PC that old. It would be obsolete.

i liked how his gun was able to kick back and go back into place before the bullet was 3 feet from him

@the people arguing how the pros can get a better spec computer cheaper:

Even though that's true how come most professionals still buy macs?  every company I have gone (and I have gone to a lot) Most of the people I see have a mac. 

I think that macs are more of a business computer then a home computer and hence the premium price tag.

Graphic design companies,  Webpage design companies, Video game companies (it was about 50/50 here).  My brother even owns one for his business and then my other brother has one for his music.

Video game companies don't use macs,ever heard of Mark Cale?My friend Martin's,his Mum is going out with him.We went over to visit his london studio,not a single mac,they all run versions of windows or linux.You can't develop for games for xbox360 or ps3 without windows or linux.The only advantage mac has over windows or linux is that you can use the official iphone sdk,but there are brilliant iphone sdk's for linux such as Apatana Studio.

Face it dudes,you're paying for the status symbol,the components aren't premium,they're the same as any other computer out there.If you actually think the OS is better than windows,save yourself  a couple of grand and go hackintosh.



Only problem concerning a Mac, I have ever had to deal with was replacing a superdrive. The guys a pro photographer and burned CDs like mad. And this is an old G4. Which only recently had this problem.
If you had a PC that old. It would be obsolete.

That's repairing other peoples pc's,and you seem quite computer literate,so you wouldn't do things that a computard would do.
I guarantee you if all your family had mac's there'd be the same amount if not more problems.

WRONG they used mac's to draw up the 3d models and textures,which is all a mac is good for,you CANNOT and I repeat CANNOT compile a game for ps3 without windows or linux.



The story of Microsoft buying a bunch of macs off apple for developing for the 360 is an internet fairy tale made by apple fanboys.
macs are used occasionally in video game development,but only for textures,the real work is done on linux and windows.


Yet again I profess unto you all,Linux is the way forward.
