I've got a Dual 2.5GHz G5 and a 17" Powerbook, and a 2300+ AMD pc.

I use the Mac's for everything, and use the pc to kick when I'm having an off day.

Dual G4 thingy and a PC at work as i support both Macs and PCs. Although i support PCs with a great more competence than i do Macs.
Fully PCd up at home though (apart from a 21" mac monitor).

Dual G4 running virtual PC so i dont have to hide away an ugly grey box. VPC runs the handful of apps that you cant get on Mac OS pretty well.

I'm looking to get a G5 system soon... Since I guess that's the last system that will be a real Mac instead of just an overpriced Intel system

I run a G3 iBook, a G3 iMac and a win 98se pc. I mainly use the pc to back up emails etc i had always planned to just use the iBook and iMac for graphics work (for my private work, and for my college work), but due to the stability and reliability etc its used for everything.

Although i will definitely be getting another mac in the future, either a mac mini, G5 tower, or powerbook.

The macs certainly seem to do everything and more that i ask of them, and they can deal with pretty much anything that i throw at them. The operating system just seems so much more intuitive, easy to use, but most important of all, extremely stable.

I use a Mac for the rain, and I'm not into all this modern PC rubbish, minding your F-ing "p"s and "q"s, calling it a bl88dy Chair"person" and all that parc.....


Eh? sorry, what was the question again?






Totally PC-minded, never even considered a Mac even though I know their reputation for working in the visual arts, etc...
