Starting my photography course next week and iv been thinking for a while i need a new computer so with loans etc coming it seems a good time.
But should i go for a Mac or a PC? Most of the photography industry seems to be Mac equiped but given that my budget is not exactly limitless should i get a mediocre Mac or build top spec pc?
One of my mates has quoted me prices of between £200 for an alright pc and £400 for one that'll blaze. Comparing that to Mac prices it seems like the amazing pc is going to be about half the price of an okish Mac.
The college has Macs so i can learn to use them there and i beleive i could run Mac operating software on a pc if its got enough memory?
It jus seems like if i get a Mac im shelling out hundreds and hundreds of pounds that would maybe be better spent on equipment like lenses, a printer etc.
