Well, that was a lot of fun.
Actually, I don't know... I'm so confused.
Well, that was a lot of fun.
I have a Mac mini at home that I love and I use one at work. Both are early 2012 models so they don't have the most recent processor upgrades.
I mostly connect to the one at home via VNC because it is functioning as my media server. I have a 3TB FireWire drive connected to it. It basically runs iTunes for home sharing. It could easily do more but I have my retina MacBook Pro for that. Maybe overkill for a media server but not really any more expensive than a drobo or ReadyNas and the hard drives to go with them. And when I do VNC to it I have a nice familiar interface.
I use the one at work for programming work and it has plenty of power for Eclipse and Xcode. I imagine heavy photo or video editing would struggle since it doesn't have a discrete graphics card, but I have no experience with that. It doesn't have any trouble driving 2 1080p monitors though with many windows open.
Unless you have a compelling reason to switch from Windows to Mac, there is no reason to do it - especially given the difference in price between comparable machines.
If you do heavy video or music editing, by all means get a Mac. Otherwise, stick with your PC and save yourself the money.
If you want a Mac because you have an iPhone and an iPad...stick with your PC and save yourself the money.
It's just tempting. Not sure why. Just feel it may be worth it in the long run.
Get the newest available, it's a beast from what I can talk!! It's a great looking machine too!
Which one? The vizio or the Mac?
Mac of course! Sorry sir/ma'am.
Welcome back.
Haha, thanks. Not buying a new computer now though. Waiting until November. Gonna see what PC Manufactures and Apple comes up with during these months.
So, it appears that "unstoppablekem" has been stopped. J/K.
