Than any PC?
Me thinks you have overly generalised.[/quote]
yes i have. but compared to what most pc laptops look like which is generally a chunk of plastic with random buttons, lights and logos scattered upon it an apple laptop is a lot easier on the eye.
i can't think of any pc product that's made me want to pick it up and have a play with it.
as for using them for work i don't know any photographer that uses one (but about 20 that use macs) so i can't say if a p.c. is any good or not. i have been told that p.c's can't run 2 monitors each with their own independent calibrated profile which makes them (pc's) useless to me and any other professional photographer. even my macbook can do this and it doesn't have a seperate video card
as for just wanting to surf the net and do the odd spreadsheet i'm sure a pc is ideal.
