You transmitted opinions and some information (true or not, I'm not sure). Education is something more...

Quote - "What you think does not matter, if you read known technical magazines"

Some people take the printed word as the absolute truth. You shouldn't believe in everything you read because who ever wrote that can also be wrong. Think about it in a critical way (especially if you read statistics of a brand market share in a magazine of that brand... :-)).

Quote - "Sorry but your points were debunked (about Apple), not validated."

The main point, the question of this thread, was validated by you. A PC is the best choice for Vue. You wrote that yourself, see your post. Let me copy+paste here again, my statement and your response. This is too good not to be repeated: :-)
-- My statement
if I want to buy a computer for Vue, an HP i7 (for example) would be roughly equivalent to a Mac Pro regarding the main factors that are relevant for Vue, at a much lower price, and so it's a much better choice.
-- Your response:
If its VALUE over performance you are after and you ONLY wanted it for Vue and NOTHING else mattered at all, that may be true at this time."

Quote - "Does that mean you treat others at your work the same way you treated me here if you think their "attitude" is not to your liking or people with more experience like the CEO is "pulling ranks"?"

To tell you the truth, I don't often meet people who start a conversation by pulling ranks so this is a problem I don't normally have to deal with.

I keep trying to close out this thread and you keep taking everything out of context so I am forced to correct my words and place them into the correct context. It was unsubscribed to and I saw this written with my words so....

The thread actually states "the perfect Vue computer" NOT the Perfect Value Computer for Vue. Those are YOUR words and what YOU posted. I did say:

"If its VALUE over performance you are after and you ONLY wanted it for Vue and NOTHING else mattered at all, that may be true at this time."

**I said "may be true" and also that is NOT what the OP asked. Both of us are WRONG here and the PERFECT Vue computer would not have VALUE factored into it because it would cost a LOT more.

Here is the original OP question:

"I'm considering getting a new computer so I was hoping for some advice as to what would make the best computer for Vue....."

So to answer the OP, which is a sticking point with you, then it would be a Mac Pro with about 16GB of RAM. You would use it mainly in Mac OS and then duel boot to Windows for the few 64 bit apps that are not yet on the Mac OS like Vue. There was no mention of VALUE here.**

You conveniently ignore everything I have debunked in your posts with the FACTS and supported links so it's pointless because there is a need for you to win here and you can't admit to being totally wrong about anything.

So, I will be the bigger man here and just say I gladly yield to you, and wish you good luck.
