God, that was unsavoury.

IT BURNS! jks, hope you enjoy it ^^

I don't diss Macs personally, but they aren't what they're cracked up to be, the whole "Macs just work" urban legend just isn't true, Apple just relies on the whole PC-dissing they do in their ads the gain the favor. A brand new computer pre-installed with Windows works for a while and then things go pear-shaped, and Macs are no exception, they do the same thing, except when a Mac craps out, you need to send it to Apple or another Mac specialist, which aren't as common as repairers of PCs.

"Pear-shaped". That made me giggle for some reason.

But ya, pretty much this.

Mac's aren't THAT awesome and they CAN get infected just as badly as Windows... just that they're not popular enough for it to be profitable by professional hackers. In fact, since most Mac users don't run any type of antivirus, they can be taken down in a matter of moments if someone truly wanted to.

As a DJ.

The only reason I bought a Macbook Pro is for something to use at gigs and I needed something that was not going to freeze a song while mixing or anything like that.

And everyone told me t go with a Mac, even the DJs I know. Teachers. And generally everyone.

If I wanted soemthing for gaming, something for any other use, I wouldn't have gone Mac~

Honestly, a well built PC can still do music and photos. The whole "Mac is better at music and photos!" is just an old Mac vs PC war rumor.

Laptops, not so much.

I've seen it, an average laptop around the 1,5k price will perform shit with my mixing programs and my midi equiptment.

I dont need it to just play music. I need to to be able to do everything straight away, when I press a button on my midi controller, I expect it to do it straight away without lag.

Then you must have a poor processor or low RAM. You need to check the specifications before just plopping down $1,500, this goes for Macs too.

I did. |:

And no, a lot of it had to do with the operating system.

I looked into it for like four months.

kthx.

Actually, you can't blame EVERYTHING on the OS of a system, not even Vista.

A lot of Vista's flack came from the Apple commercials, OEM bloatware, people thinking that they can use 6 year old hardware with a new OS, and ignorant PC users thinking you can mess with system settings and think you'll never fuck something up.

Sounds like you just had a crappy laptop but don't blame it on the OS unless you're using XP with new hardware that XP can't handle.

Forgot that includes manufacturers creating piss-poor hardware and drivers (Nvidia especially since they got sued for their terrible drivers).

Eh, I dont care.

It does the job. It looks pretty while doing a gig.

and it only cost me $79

Gay.

I didn't know you did gigs :D You should put on a show at the MiDfur ball :D

\o/

I am this year, I'm gonna be DJing one or two nights seeing how everything goes.

I'm also might be doing a gig at FurCoNZ this year too. 8U

Sick. Ah well get some on youtube :D

I'm thinking about making another account on here just specifically for DJ mixes amd my DJ stuff. :U
