I'm curious to know why you guys and gals prefer Mac over PC.

A little background on the guy asking:

my setup
Home: Intel Pentium 4/1.8Gig, Creative SB Audigy
Road: Intel Pentium M(Centrino)
WinXP Home
Cubase VST/(VST and DirectX plug-ins)
WaveLab 3.0

Pretty lean right now, but I'm slowly building my setup. Most of what I do is sequenced, but I would like to someday build a home studio and have guests either sing or play on my tracks. I sometimes spend a lot of time on the road for work(the day-job) and I like being able to work on my music in the hotel room(can I get away with a PowerBook in a home studio setup too?)

Any suggestions are appreciated.

The J.

what i've done (so far) was get mac versions of the pc software i used to use, or the ideal setup similar to how i had it on pc (reason & an audio editing tool like cool edit/adobe audition) so now i went and got reason 3 (needed to anyway, plus its multi-platform) and using audacity to normalise/edit sounds, next year i'd like to see what sort of industrial/noise i can create with garage band wink.gif i think im up for a challenge.

Its always good to see what else is around though, because sticking with one thing may be good and secure, there may be something else out there that'd do as good if not better of a job.

once i can afford to get virtual pc, i'd like to see how well my pc music apps will run through virtual pc on a 1.67ghz powerbook w/ only 768mb ram tongue.gif
