First off, there is a big difference between mac users & windows users. Mac users luv there computers where window users always have something negitive to say about there computer. As for spyware, I use a G4 power mac & I have never installed any protection on my mac nor have I ever had a computer virus. Why is that when I like everyone else download, browse the web, use internet explorer. Its really simple. The windows file ( exe ) that everyone uses on a window computer carries the bug. Macs do not open such files therefore macs are free to explore the web with no worries. Of course you can download exe files on a mac but you can not open it & there is no damage unless you open the file. Every so often macs do get a bug but your looking at maybe 1% of all mac users, these would be those who install windows 2000 on mac as a 2nd. operating system. As for Video, I use Final Cut Pro 5 & I luv it. Macs are great for graphics, windows dont refresh fast enough. Everytime I use photoshop on a windows computer I flip at how the screen does not refresh. On macs I have never had such a thing. For Video work windows was the way togo early on, apple didn't spend to much time on R&D in Video but every since macs caught upto windows in speed & performance things have changed in a major way. Macs can now handle the demands of Video. Animation was also done on windows & every animation was for windows till apple woke up one day & smiled. Web design in my book should stay in the windows world, simply cause the world runs on windows where macs only make it better. It really doesn't matter what Video software you use, its all about skill. You can sit here & debate who is the best & that will get us nowhere. Strike up a plan, connect with a area of interest, software / hardware company, your target folks. Take a look at your budget, spend some time on the learning curve & everything else will follow into place. I dont go off & use every software out there, instead I stick to one I connect with & go with it. When im ready ill move on, till then ill master the art. Do the one, find that one thing your good at & do it. In imaging if thats working with color then relax. You cant do everything, not even in software so find that one thing your good at & become a PRO.
