Hi list, just an observation that makes me sad! I read ProDig with interest for the diverse views expressed and the expectation of professionalism from all contributors, (and there are some extraordinary contributors with a wealth of knowledge we pro's enjoy) but try as I might, I can't get my head around the rivalry of PC and Mac. Surely they both have an equal place in creative photo - graphics and according to the talent of their operators, both do the work asked of them with precision and efficiency. At the end of the day, it's the person behind the camera, keyboard or pad that produces the goods, not the machine! When someone makes a statement like the one below and say's "they've never acknowledged that the Mac exists.." or, in the case of others, proclaiming that "certain software, in their opinion is rubbish - because it is more popular with one or other platform" I feel the despair that comes from intolerance and the inability of some to accept that nothing in life, especially in computing is cut and dried. Does it really matter that a digital file or a hundred digital files take ten minutes or an hour to process on one machine or ten minutes and twenty seconds or an hour and ten minutes to process on a different machine! Nobody works every minute of every day and does it matter if a few extra seconds is added to the coffee break. Those that say YES should look at their "time management", not the make of computer they use! I see lots of Mac - PC bashing from both sides of the argument and if it's good fun, that's not a problem, but sometimes it seems that............Oh well........WTH Ian Jebbett
One can only assume they mean Win95, Win98, WinMillenium, WinNT, > Win2000, since they've never acknowledged that the Mac exists...note > the Windows inability>>>> What I would like to see is guys like you talk to windows techs with the same ease, fluency and speed as the machines themselves do.>>>>> Authorised NIKON Dealer - Ian[at]foto-works.net www.foto-works.net Creative Digital Photo-Graphics t 01239 831818 m 07941415610 Out-going text and images are Virus Checked =============================================================== GO TO http://www.prodig.org for ~ GUIDELINES ~ un/SUBSCRIBING ~ ITEMS for SALE
