I think Seth has a great point since most Mac users use Parallels to compliment their development cycle. So, it's obvious that the Mac's appeal goes beyond Flash/Flex developement since they can have the best of both worlds.
If I had the $$, I'd probably buy a new mac since its the best bang for your buck especially when you can test your stuff on both platforms on ONE box. But it's not the most cost efficient unfortunately On 6/20/07, Jim Robson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Seth - Thanks for the advice (to me) and the caution (to the entire community). I am researching much more than just the Flash question, but since I am primarily a Flash / Flex developer, it seemed appropriate to put the question to my peers and learn from their experiences. -Jim -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Seth Green Sent: Wednesday, June 20, 2007 12:17 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] Flash Development on PC vs Mac I'd say your choice of Mac vs. PC should go well beyond which is better for flash development considering there are major differences between the two. I'd like to challenge the rest of the people on the list not to get into a PC vs Mac fanboy debate and keep this particular discussion to flash development on the two OSs. My only anecdotal evidence is that my wife works for a prominent interactive agency that does a ton of flash development. their entire flash team uses Macs.
