OK buddy first off I love macs. This macworld just really pissed me off. I did not mean to send you off into a little premadonna hissy fit. (see his enitre post) As far as I am concerned this is a minor upgrade. All the **** they added does nothing for me as a profession video editor. For them to charge full price for the upgrade is bull...

They should of called it at least OS-10.5 if the were gonna charge for it, and I don't think they should charge for it until it works right. It does crash, but as I stated in my original email, not as much as my PC. OS-x is no where near as easy to use as OS 9.x with 9.x you had total control. Something was screwing up you mac just turn off the extensions. In OS-x you don't have that luxury. It is still better then Windows, but when macs cost twice the price (even more considering I could build myself a top of the line PC for under $700) and go slower then a pc, I expect more. I don't want to hear that crap about certian tests in photoshop and other select program going faster then fastest Pentium chip. The tests they made were very selective. My single processor AMD XP 1700 running windows XP boots up in about 20 sec compared to OS-X 1-2 minutes. It renders faster in after effects, bryce, lightwave, and Maya, then my Dual 1 ghz G4.
I don't even care they didn't release new powermacs. I can understand why they didn't. They have too many. I also understand why most of the upgrades to OS 10.2 cater to consumers, so they really don't interest me.
I use a PC for my home computer, to surf the internet, listen to music, and play games. Only because I built my pc and it cost my 1/4 the price of an iMac that does the same thing, and because the internet was built for PC users and not everything is compatable with the mac. iTunes is better the windows media player. iMovie is better then that piece of you know what (I assume we can't swear on this thing) Movie Maker or what ever comes with windows. Apple need to get it's **** together they need to fire motorola (or buy them they hvae been buying enough companies lately you'd think they would look at the company that has been Fu**ing them over for the last 3 years. They should have chips running at the same speed as pentiums. (and speed for speed the G4 is much faster) They should of had things like DDR ram before eveyone else. I love macs but they need to get on the ball
