Editing is all mac based, but superior mac-based editing programs can be found on PC.

Alright, when it comes to editing, a Mac is fine, but when it comes to working when you touch the keyboard, it's worse than a Commodore 64. The end.
I faced death. I went in with my arms swinging. But I heard my own breath and had to face that I'm still living. I'm still flesh. I hold on to awful feelings. I'm not dead... My chest still draws breath. I hold it. I'm buoyant. There's no end.

I love the claims that Macs are more user friendly. Thats bullshit. I have a friend that is an avid Mac supporter, I was at her house and she barely knew how to use it. She has had Macs her whole life.

isnt it funny how that works?

Take apart your demons, then you add it to the list.

Nuh-uh. Linux. Almost every movie I've seen has been edited on Linux OS, not Mac.

So many schools I went to had Macs, and they were the most useless pieces of shit I've ever seen, not to mention used. Until I got to my current high school. Then we didn't bother to look for the plug, for "future references".

I :love: my high school computers.

I :bow: Linux.

I :cuss: Mac.

yeah, the video department is the only place in the school you can find a mac.

my elementry school had macs, which is the most useless thing ever, they just dont operate....right :freak: i dont know, i just cant stand them. it took 8 years of 'computer class' to figure out how to use a mac, which i still dont really get, and 20 mins on my own to figure out my PC.

I don't know about the shutdown thing, my old computers (and i mean OLD) shut down all the time and they were pcs. my spiffy dell doesnt ever. *pats dell* :love:

But they computers in the library at my school are ALWAYS out, (older pcs) but i think thats just because they never get fixed. fucking CUPE :cuss:
