Mac vs. PC

I agree with both comments.  I'm looking into buying a laptop so that I can successfully complete my MBA homework without having to deal with my usual Mac issues, but I have to say, I'm going to avoid getting Vista.  It appears to be a poor copy of the Mac GUI, is very clunky and needs a ton of memory to run properly.  Plus, there's an issue with downloading music to your iPod.  If I'm trying to simplify my life, then getting Vista (and all of its patches) isn't the way to go!

Welcome to the Mac vs. PC blog.  I chose this topic after creating my account with Vox.com only to find out that their site does not support Safari (the standard browser for Macs).  When I attempted to compose my first blog entry, I was greeted by a pop-up window that told me to download Firefox because Vox currently does not support Safari (but that they're working on it).  It's 2007, right?  Do people with Macs always have to be left out when techies design code behind a new software?  Did the designers at Vox need to abandon their Macs and use a PC to design the site?  Is that even possible?  Anyway, I should say that I was a PC user for years until I decided to quit my job and get into graphic design and Web design.  I fell in love with the simple user interface and the way it looked on my desk (which was in the living room, so whatever I bought had to look as good as the furniture).  I have to say, though, when I'm doing my MBA homework or regular work from home, I despise my Mac (this might not be true if everyone supported the Mac so I could get my work done from home).  In fact, I may get a laptop to do my MBA work and use my Mac for everything else.  Does anyone else suffer a love-hate relationship with their Mac or PC?
