I noticed someone said people don't post PC problems on here so i will. I was on the phone for an hour and a half yesterday with support because my network was completely HOSED! after toruble shooting fro and hour and a hlaf the it came down to turning off the 2 PC's on the network (we have 8 macs and 2 PC's. after we turned then out....voila it was fixed. If anyone else has network problems just get rid of your PC's.

man, don't even get me started on my PC. i have to reformat it about once a month. i had one weekend a while back when i had to reformat and reinstall Windows 3 times. obviously, something is wrong.. just haven't taken the time to remove hardware one piece at a time to find out what the hell it is. ughhhhhh.

what makes you think it's your hardware?
also, be mindfull of the applications you install on your system. shareware and freeware is nice, but they may not always be the best developed software and may cause memory leaks or corrupt files/registry/etc.

i forgot to mention, usually, the only piece of hardware that can ever be the culprit for any issues resulting in the need to reformat is a corrupt hard drive.
and if that's the case you just need a new one and you can throw your mac vs pc argument out the window as both mac and pcs have hard drives and in are from the same manufacturers ie. toshiba, imb, etc.

i love my PC, aside from a non-PC-related harddrive crash 2 years ago, i had no problems with it. Works smooth as butta, in both windows and linux.

i used pc at home and work for 8 years. i switched to a mac this summer. i wanted to network the two so i could move the files from my pc to my new mac. at this point i had 2 days mac experience & 8 years pc experience. i configured everything with total ease on the mac side of the network but took days to get the pc to talk back. moral of the story pc's suck and macs rock.

toastie, ever done any programming on a mac?
- toastie0
no, not really, i never owned one :)
plus before OSX days you had to get the Code Warriors compiler to do anything. Nowadays, tho, most stuff written for linux can compile on OSX without much pain, so i guess most stuff i write now is compatible.
Also, as I mentioned before, I use FOX for alot of stuff, and stuff written with it should compile fine on OSX.
Also, there's wxWindows, which I ditched for a few reasons, which uses native widgets on all platforms.

I've had a PC at home forever with very few problems, I use a Mac at work and I like it, but it has crashed way more than my PC ever has.

We have a Mac network at work with about 5 PCs on the network. The network works beautifully. I think your tech guys people just need to learn a little more about PCs.
