I know its great for graphics design. But anything else?

I have installed MAC OS X 10.x (x386 Version) on my PC and played around with it.........to be honest, I don't thing there is anything on Windows based PC that is not on MAC or vis versa......it's matter of what you are used to...there are exceptions.....Graphic as you mentioned and Music compiling and DJ Edition......I have built a system for a friend three years ago with 1.5 Gig of RAM (at that time 1.5 Gig was A LOT) P4 2.4 (first one out).....for his to put out two CD's.....(making music CD)....that system was not good enough for the music editing software he was running but MAC OS 9 PIII 1.2 GHz on different machine (a MAC system) and no problem at all.

that's my 2 ¢ worth.

Cheers
