macs are great if thats all you want to use. id rather have a pc and replace it twice as much then pay twice as much for a mac. for the specs you get (side to side) macs are horriable value. i understand that mac use good components where alot of pc assesemblers used cheap crap. but my hard drive has lasted 5 years in my pc and that is 2 years longer then i expected for the life of the system.
and even if you did want to run AutoCAD or pretty much any other software that isnt MS Office, you still have to run a copy of Windows anyways. so any advantage is lost.
i would buy a mac for a home pc for internet, music, pictures and movies, but not if i wanted to do much of anything else. but i think that is a pretty pricy internet surfer when i gould get an Asus EEE for $300 (those are pretty neat)
