What does everyone use when doing their maps? Do we have a thread containing Mac specific issues or anything of the sort? I seem to come across issues that my Mac has when using the Galaxy Editor that is not always the case with a PC. Only PC in my house is a laptop so kinda sucks to be working from that...
Personally, macs are superior, if what your doing isn't what I spend my day doing. (Programming, gaming)
For example: If all i did was surf the web and do documents and stuff (pages is fine) I would prefer a mac. That said, thats now all I do, and yes they cost more.
If you are rich, you can afford to replace your PC when it gets a virus and dies :(
Nah. I've got a PC and I'm very happy with it. There's probably not much of a difference other than the UI (possibly) and some minor stuff. For the majority (if not all) of things you will do in the Galaxy Editor it wont make a difference.

Feel free to Send me a PM if you have any questions/concerns!
sad, no granny love/respect here... shouldn't be surprised with a gaming crowd though :)
pc has (mostly) always been better for gaming (just because gaming developers work for pcs and ignore macs or any other platform, it's just about reagonomics, nothing to do with anything sensible)
mac used to house so much better hardware it was ridiculous to even compare, but alas no more... as for software, well... your pc softwares all come from mac developers ideas... i'm not even exaggerating...
for galaxy, i will not bore u with the enumeration, but mac users get it in the butt... with gravel added. blizz still caters for it though (so i guess i shouldn't complain, seeing as they are among the last to bother doing it)
... that's why the mac hack for galaxy showed up.
however, just to, once again, play the old fart: my 15 year old macs can still play sc1, my 20 year old macs still play snake, load runner, montezuma's revenge etc... can u say the same with the shitty pc's from then? guess not!
please remember that pc's were (for the best part of the boom of computers) just pale imitations of macs... mac users never bother with their computers, they just enjoy them (antivirus? never need those for one) ; game selection is pre done for mac users (only good games come out for mac)
well... to be honest all this ended with the g4... but hey consider the big bad microshit vs the cutsy fruit... they held on as long as they could
yes, i used pc's to set up lans or play games not on mac, yes i used pcs whenever money was concerned, but i hated it... every time...
"macs are for people who can't use a computer"... pffff.. hilarious!!! i would have said macs are for people who hate wasting their time with dumb sofware, shitty hardware shit and like to use their time for something other than making their computer work properly...
Does anyone here know of any Mac related bugs/limitations? I had assumed that the two were more or less the same.
?? be more specific?? mac and pc are the same? bugs and limitations are the same...?
limitations: you can't really follow tutorials cause there done by pc moders, the tools developed on pc don't work (if you emule them on mac, the result is not worth the hassle)
bugs: no "bugs" with a mac, why do you think you have one? do u need help are are you just curious... cause besides not being a pc i can't see what u mean...
Right now I have an HP Pavillion with some non-stock parts, thermaltake 600W power supply, new hard drive, nvidia 9800 GT. I am looking to replace even more stuff including get a new motherboard. I want the ASUS Rampage iii.

Approx 95% of all guys here use PC.
macs .... are for people who dont know how to use a computer... or rich people
Mac default UI is probably more pretty, that's probably the only advantage there.
Pc you can do cool stuff like pop in an SSD or easily make a ram drive w your massive amount of ram.
Fixed. If I had tons of money to burn I'd still get a PC.
@Karawasa: Go
Yup. A really epic £20,000 one!
For the same performance MAC computers are more expensive. The most expensive apple in the world :)

I like oranges.
Costs aside, if the question is about which computer is better for GE, take a PC, the GE for PC is more fully supported
PC is better.
nuff' said.
