I could build a computer that outperforms a dual G5 for less than $3000.
... Are you implying that you hate Macintosh?

Man you guys are way above my head. Talking all your computer and gigabites. But anyways I'd pick PC because that's what I have. It's a Dell 4300S. It works well. It's 2 years old though.

Would it be legal?  :blink:
Oh yeah. Umm. I use both platforms, just as I use Windows/Linux.
Basically you guys could duke it out all day, and the fact of the matter is, people who like Mac will like mac, and those who like Windows will like windows.

Oh yea, i forgot about the legal thing...  Ah well, a licence of Windows XP Pro can't cost that much, can it?  Anyway, for a workstation, a dual FX-53 with with a gig of low latency pc3200, a 9800xt, a 74gb 10,000rpm drive for the OS, a 250gig for storage, and all the other shiz found in a comp can be bought for ~$3000.

Dual FX-53? Processors?

A licence for WinXP pro costs around $250, I heard.

Are you doing this?

There is no such thing as peace and there never will be. Peace is a delusion believed by the weak. Gandhi said : "An eye of an eye would leave the whole world blind". So be it because only a blind world can experience the peace that it deserves. But there in lay the sick irony. Who will be able to see this peace? The human species is at war. The enemy walks among us nearly invisible. Only those with true discernment can see them. But only one with discernment and vision can show them to others

BOTH Microsoft and Apple are losing their edge. Linux is rising, fast. They've already dominated the server market. It's only a matter of time until they take over the PC market.

No, they don't. And you know that. Macs are insanely high priced, and they aren't worth it. This one is 1,000 dollars, and mine is better + cheaper. If Steve Jobs hadn't gotten rid of all the competition, he wouldn't be able to charge $2 grand for a computer.

We don't even know how old your Mac is.

You don't seem to know I don't own a mac, and never will. My computer is a custom-PC.
