    I use OSX every fucking day and when I switch to Windows 7 the thing looks modern. OSX is seriously stale and behind the technological curve (I guess that's courtesy of iOS.. Apple just doesn't give a shit and they have apologists among their cult members non-stop so they really don't care)

    Nothing wrong with Windows 7 at all.. it's one lean mean OS and the most advanced one on the market now.. you get TRIM support for SSD drives, Blu-ray support, USB 3.0, true RAID support, diversity in hardware, everything is compatible, you get choice in components, you will be able to upgrade later whatever you want from it without needing to rebuy the whole computer (Apple way)..

    Plus.. you can install OSX on it because the community is like holy shit big. It's a bit of a hassle but you can do it.

    I was looking to upgrade my Mac Pro 8-core to the new one.. I have Mac Pro 3.1 (pre-Nehalem) and I wanted the newer 12 core one but the price is like $6500. for $6500 I want Steve Jobs to give me a blow job, seriously. OSX is ok, but people paying these prices today are fucking nuts.. That's what cult will do to your brain cells.

    Don't worry.. you'll be fine.. you'll like Windows 7, you'll like the freedom, you'll like the tons of software and support and you'll even have money to get like sweet ass SSDs or take your girl to fine dinners instead of wasting it on a Mac premium that's really not worth it..

    Have you ever wondered why Apple has the need to control everything and lock people into their eco-system.. it's not because of the "experience", it's so you can never leave that shit and have to keep buying and re-buying their shit.. but I guess people need to buy "status" so they pay the prices.

    You'll be great.. I would just advise you to try and build your PC.. that way you can make a dual processor socket motherboard, and get insane power workstation and just slap one 6-core Xeon in there and then when you have money, and prices drop even more.. get another one and just slap it in there.. That's one of the nicest things with PC.. you get to expand it as you have money.. you don't have to slap everything at once.

    • ha dual hexacore what work u doing killer?
