"I just wonder if it's worth the expense to switch. But then, every time I have to reboot my computer to get it working again, only to get a black screen of death, I think it wouldn't be so bad"
I thought the same things too, I was so conditioned to how bad my computer experience was that I was afraid to switch. Like most people as soon as I switched the light came on and i said "OHHHHH, i see how its supposed to work now.." "I mean, even if I'm doing very little, I often have to wait for my start menu items to come up. Over the course of an entire day, that kind of thing just becomes really annoying. " I was so sick of constantly rebooting or clicking on something and waiting for windows to pull its head outta its ass for long enough to actually do something. Was so damn frustrating. "I've been looking to see if there's a decent program for Macs that can handle my needs, but picking are pretty slim" What are your needs? I think image & photo programs on a mac blow away most windows ones, hence the reason why most photographers use them. "PhotoShop performance really ends up as a wash in my experience. Some things are faster on one platform, some on another - but nothing that you'd really notice" Well Jim you havent experience photoshop cs3 ub on an intel mac then I guess. Average startup time for ps on a pc or cs2 on a mac was 40-70 seconds, my mbp opens up ps cs3 in around 6 seconds, I think that is more than a little bit noticeable. And all the functions render that much faster as well, granted its still in beta and might slow down a little bit. Now you put that on a new 8 core mp and lord have mercy! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Upgrade to Adobe ColdFusion MX7 The most significant release in over 10 years.
