Ok here's my experience with macs
NONE
!:P
2 years ago i moved in the uk for studies, i bought my *NEW THEN* acer aspire 6920g. I am a gamer (my roommates are gamers too) playing 7 hours per day cod4:P. Anyway to the point. One of my roommates is studying graphic design so he has been told to buy a mac. So he did. He bought imac 27'' inch monitor. wow i couldnt say a thing, (i was so jealous). After 2-3 days u know while we were playing cod4 with my roommates he came in my room and he asked me. Dude can u download cod4 for macs? yep i said. downloaded, he tried to installed it but nothing, i told him ok u should buy it. He bought the game(he installed it) and we were playing cod4... a week after he took his laptop and left his imac in the corner. SO is it worth to buy MACS? well we are kids(am 22 :P), we ll never stop playing games unless u will find a good job and make family!
yey i just finished!:P
