Mac highlighting whats "wrong" with a PC, but not highlighting whats actually user compatable in a mac..... "It can do what you already do but better" (which should be the idea), its not selling too many people on it.  If as portrayed, PC users are all serious stuffy business people crunching numbers, well......... they aren't going to make any sales anyway telling that stereotype "hey, lets make a goofy movie!".

So to find out anything of what a mac can really do you have to either, find someone who has one and have a look, or search around all over for the specs and information.  I've done both, and have found really, nothing a mac can do, that my PC can't.  Its basically a computer with a different operations.

That's exactly the complain I've had about Apple advertising.  They do make good hardware, especially laptops, but they don't actually bother telling you about it.  No, you have to buy an Apple because it's cool.  My sister has a Macbook and the reason she has it was because of word of mouth from a friend of hers who had one and so on and she could see what it would do.

I know several people in manhattan that work for a graphics firm and they all have macs, because the idea is macs are better for graphics.   I have gotten the lectures from all of them, that i should be using a mac for what i do because its "better"................. then I show them my work.

"You made that on a PC?".
"Yeah, HP Pavillion".
"Oh.......".

It would appear they had no idea I could do that LOL.

Yeah, that "graphics and sound" nonsense was true ten or more years ago but there are very few programs you can only get on Apple versus a Wintel machine these days.   It's inertia more than anything.
