hola oi
it all depends upon wht you want to use the system for.
MAC's are great becuase of ease of use and an intuitive interface, but because they are mostly propietary devices unto themselves, they lack the enormous software support that PC's enjoy not the least of which are games.
Ask yourselves these questions:
1) Do I need to lug this 'puter everywhere I go?
2) Do I need spot-on color management for preofessioanl purposes, and
if so, am I willing to pay a premium price for it?
3) How important is game-playing on this 'puter to me?
4) Do i see an immediate need or want to do DV editing and do I already
own a FireWire DV camcorder?
I can think of others, but answer these first and lemme know.
