    • The funny thing about games is that I only play Unreal Tournament and I'm very bad as I tend to stare at the beautiful graphics too long. I finally have my Mac with UT2004 running great at decent speeds three years later! Now UT3 is out for PC and I'm jealous. I tried it through bootcamp (straight, no VM) and the stock video card on my Mac pro quad core with 4GB of RAM and it crawls. Now I need to purchase a better video card which will probably run twice the price of a similar PC card and be twice as slow on the mac as it is on a PC. Even with these limitations, I would use Macs over Windows any day. ::I::

    • If were talking games machines then its PC hand down every time from hardware though to games available. Then again you could just get a mac and an Xbox.

      I do agree Macs are far more expensive. But the a professional set of snap on tools used by rally driving mechanics cost a damn site more than my general use DIY tools just as Elton Johns Piano when he plays to many thousands cost so much more then my old school assembly one.

      I think there worth the extra especially if your in buisness and cant afford down time or risk from it.

    • In regards to consoles and online gaming, p2p multiplay just doesn't cut it.
      Try TF2 on a PC and TF2 on a 360 to understand the experience.

    • disagree, it depends on the type of game. Driving and sports games are considered superior on consoles whislt shooters and strategy on the PC but I take your point as I dont own a console and will always keep a PC for games. Perhaps because I like strategy games (if any)

      BTW - Whats TF2??
