Default Re: PC user thinking of going Mac.. question.

Just as a tip, don't underestimate the limitations of mac's, I've been on an iMac since a year now and I'm about to switch back to PC+Win7.

I thought a Core2Duo would be enough, but then I started becoming better and better on the technical and mixing side, my taste changed and I had high expectations on plugins suddenly, I started using quality plugins that take up a lot of CPU and now my iMac is not enough anymore it starts cracking on every project lol.

Instead of spending a hell lot of money on a new Mac I'll just throw 1/3 of the money on upgrading a Quad PC that I already have.

I also like Win7 (more than OSx right now), Vista was the reason why I switched in the first place, who could have expected that Microsoft is coming out with such a release like Win7 straight after Vista.

And don't forget the limited plugin availability on Mac's, there are a good amount of plugs that I miss from the PC days, I didn't expect that I'd miss those like that.
