Ok.. I never really had a bone to pick with MACs until I recently had to do an onsite freelance job with a MAC in flash...
First day, they told me I would have to use a MAC, so I was like... "ok, cool". From the beginning, they had issues with software not running properly... then afterwards, I launch flash MX and boy does it suck. SO slow. Importing eps files into MAC's flash is wack too. On a PC, it's flawless, not to mention, some hotkeys don't even exist on the MAC for some programs like flash, photoshop, and illustrator. Everything on a mac sucks... except for video. ok... so remember... PC's rule and Macs are not cool. Thanks :)

hey, i had a similar experience... i started out on mac's (I've had 6) and the past year or 2 worked with pc's. I bought a dual 1.25 in august as my new machine. I was about 30 hours into a website in flash and flash would crash whenever i exported the project. Transferred it to my laptop and it worked just fine. Not sure what happened, but hey, i sold the machine the next week. Shit, i bought it to stop having to mess around getting things to work, but hey...
if i had the cash, i'd buy another one though... just wouldn't trust it as my main machine.

nice fairy tale ...

were you on an old G3? were you running OS9?
this just isn't my experience at all on a single one gig processor, I rarely crash apps, and its always silly ones like safari that do, the graphic apps seem rock solid.
maybe it was a poorly built system

Flash MX runs like crap on a mac but MX 2004 actually is pretty good....eps import works for me. You're probably just doing something wrong.

I hate PC's..
I'm having to use mine which I usually only use for solidworks/3d studio max shit for my normal work - my lovely powerbook getting its feckin screen fixed.. Flash MX has crashed 4 times in the last hour (just exited no reason)
Moral of the story - both platforms need to get their shit together..
