I was a PC guy for many years, but once I opened my own recording studio, I went Mac and I will NEVER, EVER own another PC.

Macs are far more stable, more "plug-n-play" friendly... No need to spend hours on the internet searching for the right driver every time you want to swap a piece of hardware, and then holding your breath hoping it will work right after re-booting for the 18th time....

Hell, not only do I almost NEVER need to re-boot when I install new software or hardware... sometimes I go for WEEKS without rebooting my Macs, period! With NO ill effects or lost performance.

I have a back-up G5 sitting in the corner of my studio control room, just in case there's a problem in the middle of a session... and I've NEVER had to boot it up.

No need for regular de-fragmenting of hard drives, or constant virus and trojan-horse scans, or endless pop-up windows asking you to update everything, or frightening you into download today's security patch...

They feature elegant, simple user interfaces, they are infinitely less vulnerable to viruses and hacking....

Open up any PC tower, and you will be greeted by an unorganized, randomly laid-out collection of twisted wires, pc boards, etc... a mess.

Open up a Mac G5 or MacPro tower and you will see a work of art. A lesson in efficient, logical, sleek, elegant design, function, and serviceability (although you'll VERY rarely need to service it).

Comparing a PC and a Mac is a lot like comparing a Honda and a Mercedes.... Both will usually get you where you're going, but the latter will get you there with MUCH more style, speed, power, and grace.
