Actually, I've used Macs extensively during school for both multimedia and normal work.

And the only argument Danny has is 'OMG BLUESCREENS EVERWHAR WINDOES SUX' and ignores entirely that Windows isn't the only OS available for PCs.
The ability to upgrade you computer is important. I'm not going to have to buy a new power supply, case, screen or motherboard for a few years still. All I have to change is the CPU (which I've had for 3 years and is only now starting to get a bit old), GPU (probably will replace it when the 9000 series cards come out) and add some RAM every now and then.
I guess it really depends on how much you value 2 things; Money and Freedom. If you have an unlimited fountain of money (like, say,
your parents, eh Superkid?) then the fact of Mac's exorbitant pricing is a non-issue. Freedom is another issue, if you don't mind being shoehorned into buying a new screen, case, motherboard and power supply just to upgrade your hardware to something slightly less obsolete, then I guess that's a nonissue, too. But, some of us don't have parents who just go out and buy us expensive shit on a whim and some of us value what freedom we still have, and so these issue are very real.

You don't see me mentioning how great PC's are in every thread, do you? Danny just can't help either making remarks about Windows or slobbering all over threads with his Apple bullshit. If that isn't brainwashing, I don't know what is.

Ooh,
network engineer. That's a funny way to put "works for his dad".
