ChevChelios Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 This will never end.I am a PC man, with mac you pay so much more $ just for its pretty unibody shell and however pretty that shell may be I would be able to get a completely custom computer that would kill a standard mac for the same price or even cheaperChev.

pulsebeat Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 Im a combinationMacs are different than that as when it runs it doesnt all run at once where as pcs doi still will always have a pc you can neer get all the programs that all the pcs havemacs sure u get some programs but nowhere near as much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomy Posted July 11, 2009 Share Posted July 11, 2009 Im a combinationMacs are different than that as when it runs it doesnt all run at once where as pcs dojust change your processor setting.... i think thats how you stop that. i did it to my laptop. i think its control panel > system > advnced > performace settings > advanced > then change it from "back ground services" to "programs" thats how you do it. i read it on a tut. on how to setup your XP PC for audio recording.

Genetic Posted July 11, 2009 Share Posted July 11, 2009 most computers should already come with that as the system default Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomy Posted July 11, 2009 Share Posted July 11, 2009 Do they? Maybe it's the other way round then..? I'll dig out the tut. I had and post it up for pc people. Pc is pretty much unbeatable on price but only because there parts are out sauces and made cheaply.... So not sure if it's a good thing or not?

Genetic Posted July 11, 2009 Share Posted July 11, 2009 2 clicks are better than 1...mac's used to be good when they still used romsbut you just can't shake a stick at the good old pc.-let's see you find a picture of that caleupe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomy Posted July 11, 2009 Share Posted July 11, 2009 Background ServicesWhy Change ? ASIO and all DirectX, VSTi etc. are classified as background tasks. With the computer optimized for background services, FX, virtual instruments and synths are given priority over graphics animations and other less important stuff. Changing this will without a doubt help lower latency and also greatly increase the amount of real-time processing of audio that your computer can handle.How to change ? This is found by....

Genetic Posted July 11, 2009 Share Posted July 11, 2009 ah yeah that makes a little more sense generally a computer is set to run whatever is on screen through ram and processor, that's why desktops that have heaps of icons on them slow down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChevChelios Posted July 12, 2009 Share Posted July 12, 2009 2 clicks are better than 1...The macbooks now come with a 2 click touch pad ...They're still shite though . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomy Posted July 13, 2009 Share Posted July 13, 2009 hahah glad i have a PC now.... mac's seem to be the "in thing" right now.... i dont think it matters what you have limitation brings on creative thinking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dario Posted December 18, 2009 Share Posted December 18, 2009 It all depends,Macs win in terms of design, no one can say a pc looks better then a mac.Macs win in software, abode and other design products where made for mac, even back when indesign 1.5 came out, it was build for mac. The stock software (eg itunes) smashes windows media player, and even you guys with pc's im sure have itunes and even some of use might use safari.Pc is good for coding and shit like that, but is not really that important for most.Pc's also get a shit load of viruses.therefore mac wins. PC = Piece of Crap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChevChelios Posted December 18, 2009 Share Posted December 18, 2009 Macs win in terms of design, no one can say a pc looks better then a mac.Hah wrong check this.HP envy, now sif that aint a sexy peice of PC, given it looks just like a mac therefore mac wins. PC = Piece of CrapThis coming from someone building a PC right now....... busted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buck_Choi Posted December 18, 2009 Share Posted December 18, 2009 haha Macs do win in looks =P they are just so sleek.. drool. + the 24+ inches.. cant go wrong with that! PC meh.. they are clunky, although you can get heaps of applications and all that junk on it.which you cant really get onto mac. but for music/animation/video and all that creativity the macs rape PC in the Ass.pft. PC - VISTA << ? (FAIL!) hahaha MAC? can you say any of it fails? MAC's layout have been the same ever since it came out. back in the day. unlike winblows changes everything all the time so they can make more money to train people because they think windows is topshit. i prob used linux for about an hr or two just to try it out see it. not bad. i guess im not really a code type of guy with the terminal although if i really put my mind to it i'd prob use it. because it seems to be alot better to do server side things on such as hosting websites and certain server programs. =)i'd be a PAC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBG Posted December 18, 2009 Share Posted December 18, 2009 firstly, anyway who grades a computer on their physical looks is just retarded. It doesnt matter what they look like, the colour of the paint isnt going to change the performance.Secondly, you cant debate without recognising both sides. No one here supporting MAC has acknowledged that PCs have gaming. a MASSIVE advantage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChevChelios Posted December 18, 2009 Share Posted December 18, 2009 How can anybody say that mac are better for animation and video and shit when they use the same programs? To be honest I dont thonk macs look better than PC it all depends on taste I guess cause I dont even like the look of the imacs, mac books look good but a PC tower can look way better than an imac imo.

eggssell Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 ill try to be as flameless as possible...but in the end i think its about personal opinion. for me i prefer pc because i actually value choice. i dont want something to be locked down and restricted, and be told what i can't and can do with my machine. also i like to have the newest of the new with computers because its forever moving, while apple always lags behind by about 6-12 months (i mean where are their i7 notebooks?? probably not for another 3 months when everyones already moved on)Macs win in software, abode and other design products where made for mac, even back when indesign 1.5 came out, it was build for mac. The stock software (eg itunes) smashes windows media player, and even you guys with pc's im sure have itunes and even some of use might use safari.hmmm.. i dont think thats quite right. ive used premiere on a pc for about 7 years without issue. and i think since mac came intel way its all the same. i mean office or even traktor was written with pc in mind and it works just as well on a mac.and itunes!!! you're kidding right. looks sweet as, but its restrictive as buggery!!! and probably has the least selection of possible file types of any media player. i mean yeah i use it but thats because apple mp3 players are so "good" you have to plug it into a machine to do any type of setup with it... and even that they restrict how many machines you can use??? admittedly i havent used safari except for on an iphone. and its dumb. for all us muso fans, grab an iphone, go to your fave music blog, check out the latest mixxx by your fave dj, download it and then put it into your playlist... oh wait you cant!! but you can with any other phone that has a browser, even those from 4 years ago!as i said it really is about personal preference, and both can work. apple is like your business xmas party, nice and safe, the choice of drinks are limited and there are a lot of rules but you can still have a lot of fun. while pc is like going clubbing, you can buy what you want, stay out for as long as you want, and basically do what you want, yeah youll pick up a virus here and there along the way, but youll have a shyte load of fun!EDIT: ha ha oops that came off a bit narky. to be honest my experience has come from an ipod and an iphone, which both just irritate me sometimes and make me wonder what is apple thinking. e.g why disable the hard drive of the iphone! and in terms of their lag behind in technology. i remember waiting in eagerness for the mac book pro's to come with dual core processors, and when they finally did 6-8 months after everyone else, they were only using the slower end processors??? i was like What The!
