Seriously. Why the fuck would someone choose a Mac over a Linux if they are going to be a snobby anti-mainstream bitch. Mac's are for semi-retard hipster kids who can't be assed to know any computer specs or how to fine tune your OS.

Apple is only good for their audio production.

Other than that, any PC is better.

I've heard this before, same for graphic design. Why is that?

Logic is one of the best audio production suites around. Sure, its no Pro Tools, and its comparable with Cubase, but in terms of ease of use and general performance, its amazing.

Apple commercials get more retarded and pretentious with each day.

The also conveniently forget to mention that Apple only allows their operating system on their hardware.
All other operating systems allow you to choose whatever hardware manufacturer you want, except for Apple.

I've had to talk my mom out of getting a mac many many times. She keeps hearing how "it doesn't have viruses" or "it runs so much better", she doesn't realize it only has less viruses because there are less people with them and every computer she buys is going to run like shit because she has absolutely no virus protection software and ignorantly browses sites and e-mails, picking up every virus she can along the way. You should see her laptop, it runs like a fucking snail, worse than 90's dial up.

Dude I understand totally. My parents always want to buy a mac because "they don't want an ugly tower and it looks nicer."

Likely using pro tools, or Cubase. Both are great. But for small production, Apple's Logic is great.

This. Their commercials are killing my brain cells.

Hmm, windows 7 is out, I think instead of paying ~$150 for a shiny new OS I'll buy a fagtastic mac for $2000+ that has hardware one would find in a $500 POS dell.

Macs are for people who think their computer should look good with the furniture.

Is it just me or does the Mac guy just not seem to give a shit any more? He just grunts his way through those commercials.

ITT: People who can't afford two computers...

Windows 7 running on a Phenom II x4 for gaming and dual-booting Linux.
MacBook for everything else.

My budget isn't the reason I don't have a mac.

Over the years I've found if you have to ask Mac or PC, go with the Mac.

Macs are more stupid-proof.

Over the years I've found people who hate other people just from the computer they buy are idiots. I like both macs and PC's and am the proud owner of both.

Small production? That's bullshit. I know many big names who use Logic for producing. The truth is, that it's just a matter of preference. I personally use a PC. It's not at all about the DAW. It's about the person operating it.
