I hear ya. If they could just made it just a little deeper to fit the components behind the monitor, and have better software support, I'd be tempted to go that way for my next computer.

At home I have whatever my wife buys. At work I have whatever the IT Dept. buys.

Honestly I have used both macs and pcs in the past, and there are things to work better on each system, and it will always be like that. Which one is better? Honestly who cares, you just need to know how to use the system (and steer clear of viruses on the mac).

Ok, I'll soon be in the market for a new computer.....so which is best for logging onto Bikeforums and checking out adult sites?

mac? i'm not even cool enough to go to starbucks.

I use a Mac for school, a BlackBerry when I'm mobile, and a PC for everything else. I've even managed Linux boxes.

It comes down to this:

PC = Shimano
Mac = Campy

Doesn't matter what platform... just get a big monitor.

There's photographic evidence to the contrary, coolio.

Happytime, I'm on a PC for work and a Mac for play. Enjoy 'em both but I tend to favor the Mac with all things being equal.

please. i didn't even go inside.

The only thing that matters there is the web browser. You can get Safari on both PC and Mac, and Firefox on all platforms. Just don't use IE.

Safari has the "porn mode."

I use a PC both at home and work with a Blackberry for mobile. In addition I use Shimano on my bike. Dang, that's like vanilla ice cream.

and Linux = SRAM ????

I use a typewriter.

Very Retro...

God is my computer.

I didn't realize the new imac's had a 24" version. Now that would be tempting if I was on the market. Maybe next generation.

I am on a PC that I built.. I enjoy building my PCs(I have a couple). But I think I might buy a Mac Pro as my next 'major computer investment' mainly because I plan to get an iPhone, I have an iPod and I would like to get into editing photos and maybe video as a side hobby(I used to work at a photography studio and want to get back into my photography). I never liked Macs before. As I play with them and from how I have seen my friend incorporate Macs into his company I am more and more impressed and willing to be a computer hippie :rolleyes::p:D.

I'm way old school Mac. I remember when it was called Aldus Pagemaker, SuperPaint was the bomb, a 24-bit video card would set you back almost a grand, and a 17" monitor weighed almost 50 pounds.

At one point, I became a gaming junkie, going so far as to build an overclocked silent gaming PC with a Japanese anodized aluminum case and dual RAID. Luckily, I came to my senses. Computers are tools, not ends in themselves. I'm 100% Mac again, and spend all my time on the computer *using* it, and almost no time managing it.

Is that from the Jurassic or Cretaceous period?

If you see the model of his pet Wooly Mamoth in the first pic....

Telnet? In 2007?

ssh is what you want. Download Putty for Windows or protect your long term mental health and use Linux.

FYI it also crashes Linux Computers! This is not an OS problem as much as it is a design flaw.

Oh yeah I use Debian Linux at home, Windows and SCO Unix at work.
