Foxbatkllr Posted March 27, 2002 Share Posted March 27, 2002 Well my computer is a: Apple G4 PowerMac 400Mhz 768MB Ram 10Gb HD and a 40Gb HD ATI Rage 128 Pro 19" Sony Trinitron However, this is my personal computer which is set up for my use of Lightwave 3d, Final Cut Pro, After Effects, Photoshop, and the like (hence the enormous amount of RAM). If you're a graphics/video professional and you aint got Mac OS or Win NT, you don't have ****. It doesn't matter how many Mhz you have (overrated anyways). To play JK2 though, i will be "borrowing" another computer which is ample enough to run the game but not spectacular. BTW, don't post all this crap about how Mac can't play games and crap like that cuz I don't care. In fact most of you mac-haters haven't used one since they were black and white... 99% of the games I play are on consoles, this will be the first game for PC i've bought since the original JK.

Misa Posted March 27, 2002 Share Posted March 27, 2002 Yes I do believe this thread is a pissing contest but what the hell. I might as well have my specs on the board so if I need help from people on this board I can point to this thread and say there they are. Also why would we bash the Mac. Macs play games just fine. People believe macs don't play games very well becuase up until recently hardly any games released for it.(all Apples fault for telling game companyies go away in the 80s) Besides I still think they are great for graphic work. Oh well looks like I am begining to rant. Hey maybe I will get out my old powermac 4400 and play some Dark Forces.

Foxbatkllr Posted March 27, 2002 Share Posted March 27, 2002 Yes Misa, I know Macs play games just fine, but few games come out for the Mac. Anyways, I believe the majority of the PC gaming community is probably not open to the advantages of a Mac because they use PCs largely just to play video games. If that's mainly what I needed a computer for, I'd use a PC too. But since I'm a graphics and video professional, Mac is what suits me best. It's all about which computer serves your needs better.

igor Posted March 27, 2002 Share Posted March 27, 2002 There really isn't any true way to compare a mac vs. a non-mac because they process differently, there just happens to be more software written for windows based systems. I work on both types of systems and I like both of them for different reasons. Windows based systems have more software written for it (games) and there are more hardware configurations. Macs do things like graphics and multi-task really well. Can't we all just get along:jawa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foxbatkllr Posted March 27, 2002 Share Posted March 27, 2002 igor, yes we can all get along and I wasn't trying to argue. I agree each system has their own advantages. That's why I said, you choose your computer which best suits your needs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
