I knew this post would be a mac vs windows thread like all the other ones I’ve seen or been in. I just know that with 3.2ghz and 4gb of ram with my HDs set in stripe I shouldn’t have any speed issues yet sometimes with Vista my machine would grind to a halt even on a clean system. I just got tired of it very fast and found performance on XP faster for the things I needed to do.
What I do care about now is what I think will be the dominant OS in the future because with marketing you need to speak the language with everyone. Maybe things might accelerate where we have browser based operating systems which with some websites you can do most of what you need. Give me photoshop in a browser and I might be able to work on any platform.
