[QUOTE="Dave_W, post: 78398, member: 9521"] Apple computers were the best in the world once. But in the past 6 or so years now both Apple and PC boxes use the same Intel chips there's really little to no differences between the two other than the name. Don't get me wrong, branding is a great way to make money and Apple as a company is making cash hand over fist but it's the Apple label that people are now buying. And don't think I'm some kind of Apple hater, far from it. Chemists and most other scientists were huge Mac fans because ChemDraw only ran on Macs. We stuck with them from the mid 80's and they were the best money could buy. But now that I can buy a PC from Dell that will do the same thing as the highest end Mac for 1/3 of the price, it just doesn't make sense to pay the premium any more....IMO. [/QUOTE]
