Neph: yeah, MS is really starting to scare me. this summer, i'm going to play around with the lightest version of Linux i could find: Knoppix. it seems like a lovely OS that i can run right from my cd-rom without installing anything. if it's good, and i find it easy to use, i'll pick up a 20 gig drive or so and put in an external case to boot from. if'n a good linux distro suits me fine with my proggies and whatnot, then i'll leave XP on another system and do a full conversion on this one. i hear there's some things you can do, like put Wine on your compie, to run lots of windows stuff. as long as i can play the MS games, it's all good.

macs are known to be good at photo editing, type setting & whatever over a pc but versatility & costs, the pc beats a mac hands down!

When Windows 95 came out, MAC users could say that Windows 95 was a "poor copy" of MAC O/S and they had a legitimate beef. But after XP?not anymore. That dog won't hunt!!

lol Neph that was freakin hilarious, I'm gonna quote you on that. MACS SUCK! They are not good for anything. Whatever a mac can do, a PC can do 5 times better. True, ten years ago PCs weren't as stable as MACs, but those days are long gone, so you mac nerds better watch out, cause Steve is an idiot and the only think keeping apple alive is your stupid little preppy ipods.
Also, I personally don't like WinXP either...it was made to have a nice little lame interface to immitate OS X. Win2000 is by FAR the most stable operating system out there. I have a few servers with Win2k pro that have been running for over 4 years straight, not a single hiccup. I recently have been forced to switch to XP because Pro Tools, Premiere, Avid XPress and others only run on XP. But DOWN WITH APPLE!

Macs are good for photo editing (which is why most photographers have a mac), but PCs are good too. I have Photoshop CS on my computer and it works pretty nice. Another downside for the mac is that a lot of programs aren't available to Mac as they are with the PC.

MACs to me, are like expensive luxury items that aren't as good as the alternative which costs less with more personalization.

I too do a lot of video and audio editing. I hate how all these mac geeks get so googly eyed of final cut pro. They think its like the best thing around. Um, hello, have you heard of a company called Avid? They make $100,000 editing systems for the entertainment industry, which smoke FCP. And everyone I've seen runs on a PC (although they do make them for mac). Avid XPress is awesome, however most of the time I just use Premiere Pro, and for graphics After Effects.
