pr3dr49 0 Report post Posted August 1, 2004 You can only consider MacOS if you have a Mac. It does not run on PCs.When it comes to PCs, I stick to Linux or BSD systems. There are many flavours to chose from:- http://www.slackware.com/ https://www.suse.com/ http://www.debian.org/ http://www.openbsd.org/ https://www.freebsd.org/ http://www.netbsd.org/ you don't use some particular app like AutoCAD on daily bases, it is really better.It is safer, more stable, and quite fast even on old computers.

gotenx 0 Report post Posted August 3, 2004 The apple computers are good but not the OS... If a PPC could run windows 2000 pro, that would be the best computer ever Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The new Mac OS is excellent, unix-based system. It is light years ahead of Windows. But you have to have a Mac to run it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chinfo 0 Report post Posted August 4, 2004 Yes, definitely agree with that. No Windows version can ever compare to a Mac OS.Why do you think professional designers prefer it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
