Do you use a Mac?

17 years ago

I'm very much not a Mac user. But I do know that they now come with Bootcamp, the ability to dual boot your Mac with Windows. If you weren't opposed to using Windows just for certain programs, that could be a great option!

I run Linux on all my computers. I have noticed that a lot of the new software written for IM is written in JAVA which is cross compatible with all systems.

I use RankTracker and Market Samurai witch are both written in JAVA and will work on a Mac too.

Thanks

I am not a Mac user, however I have been doing the debate internally on whether or not to go Mac. I used a colleagues Mac for the day recently, and it was definitely a bit of a culture shock for me. I've heard many good things about Mac's, I just know if I can give up my inside-out knowledge to the PC.

Actually MS is written using Adobe Flex and then packaged using Adobe AIR which offers cross platform capability. SEO Powersuite is written in Java but not that many apps are written using it for GUIs anymore, you get an app which doesnt look native on any platform.

That used to be the case but the gap has narrowed somewhat. For most PC apps there is a Mac equivalent and for when there isnt you can either dual-boot using bootcamp or go virtual machine via Parallels or VMWare Fusion.

Me I use screenflow for video capture
Audio Hijack for sound recording
Fission for sound editing
CyberDuck for FTP
Box Shot 3D for ebook covers
Adwords Editor for PPC (yep there is a Mac version)
iSkysoft video converter for various format conversions
Komodo Edit for html/js editing
Mozy for online backup
Seashore for basic image editing

And when I have to drop to windows (XP) I use VMWare fusion and run
VS 2005
SQL Server 2005
Delphi 7

All of which run fine!

I have both Mac and PC computers but just installed a program for Macs called Parallels. It makes your Mac operate just like a PC at your command. It allows you to install a Windows OS and install and run ALL PC software when in PC mode.

I'm a pretty big Mac fan. And as others have mentioned, if you need something that is Windows only, there are multiple ways to run Windows on your Mac. From what I've seen, most of the legitimate IM stuff is Mac OSX compatible or has a close alternative that is. I haven't had to dirty up my precious macbook pro with Vista yet! (I kid, I kid! Different tools for different tasks and mindsets. Both are great.)

Another mac user here. I have not had the need to install Windows yet, but if I do I will probably go with VMware Fusion. I have heard nothing but great praise for it.

I'm going to hold out for as long as I can, but the option is there for us mac (intel-based) users.

I've been using a mac for about ten years now, and fortunately with the rise of the iPod and iPhone, I have had to do less and less mac/apple defense.

Using a mac is just a great experience IMHO. I put it up there with high-speed internet, Netflix, and DVRs as far as life-improving things

I was also told that macs can't get viruses, trojons or worms. If you run windows, does this open up the ability to get any of these?

They can, but they often don't. You still have to exercise caution. Most malware writers target Windows because of the larger market share. That doesn't mean, though, that Macs are invulnerable.

For someone who spends a whole lot of time on the computer, using a Mac is truly a treat. I switched to a mac almost a year ago, and from day one I knew I could never go back. Everything runs exactly like it should, every time. No lockups, no lagging, no problems. Plus I have a 24" imac and the screen is a beauty. I'm a designer, so a mac is a better option for that too. I do keep my dell laptop around though, because there's some software that's only available for pc. But as far as my work goes, I could never go back to working on a pc. Using my 1 year old dell just feels like a huge piece of crap compared to my macs. People who say mac's are crap, or they don't live up to the hype, have probably not used one for an extended period of time.

I helped a girl set one up a few weeks ago. The lack of the optical drive was a real headache so be sure to get an external one. Installing software over the network was an incredibly painful process which turned into a day long adventure. Once all of her software (including Fusion and Windows) was loaded, it was a pleasure to use.

Yipes... that makes my PC 172 years old LOL... positively Jurassic <rolling eyes>... I'm still on SD RAM. I have 384mb RAM. Why such a strange amount you ask??? Mine came with 128mb and my partners had 256. We replaced my partners machine after SD ram was no longer available and transferred the RAM to my Machine. I seriously need to upgrade though, whenever I run graphics programs like Web Graphics Creator or Artisteer (Worpress theme generator) they eat up my RAM like you wouldn't believe. My computer lags and freezes, windows just disappear of the status bar, I run out of virtual memory.... sheesh, what a headache!

And yeah, I'm another one that wants to upgrade to a MAC. I've heard great things about them. But I'd probably still keep my PC to run some programs I've purchased online.

Not a bad idea. Of the sites I've done with your method the hand built are currently doing better then the XSP ones. I also enjoy using php includes in them then I can rotate ads, header content, menu content quickly site wide without having to touch each page. XSP can do some of that, but the adsense ads themselves have to be changed per page if you just used the XSP method.

Of course DW will not be as fast as XSP, initially or maybe ever, there is more power there. That and I keep thinking XSP is a strike against me in the eyes of the SE's simply because it is used in so many low quality sites. (not the fault of the tool at all) I just don't want to be the baby thrown out with the bath water.

Oh, and I do use XP on Fusion and have the Windows7 demo. I just end up liking Windows less and less and at work I have had a Mac for 6 + months as my primary computer, it's becoming home more and more and Windows seems like Bizzaro world from the Superman series.

So... so true!

I actually hate opening up windows now that I have bonded with my Mac.

I'm going to move everything over and soon quit any programs that need
windows.

Unfortunately some business will be lost for tools I've used for a while
now (keyword tools, Xsitepro) but it's evolution and I want to use my
Mac exclusively instead of booting up windows in it.

With more and more apps being developed in Adobe Air I think the distinctions between Macs and PCs will disappear for IMers.

I have both and use my PC mostly for playing online poker LoL. The only PC tool that I would really miss if I chucked the windows machine through the window would be speed ppc. However the single most important app for me (well most profitable) has to be Market Samurai which is fantastic Air App.

If you own a Mac and need to use PC-only applications, bootcamping Windows is definitely a viable solution.

I'm actually typing this post on a Mac Mini, running the RTM build of Windows 7 fresh from TechNet. To answer the question in the topic title, I do use the Mac in the house, though my personal machine is a PC. I review hardware products, game, and am a PC enthusiast, so a Mac isn't just for me, though I have nothing against them.
