I toy around with the idea of buying a generic 4 core laptop and installing linux on it. But every time I start to realize how much I would miss the multimedia edit capabilities of the mac software. iMovie and iPhoto are really great, simple apps. I've used sony, ulead, adobe, and others for video editing and have never found the great balance of power and simplicity that iMovie has. Similarly, while there are great photo management apps, iPhoto really hits the sweet spot for me. VMWare Fusion on mac is blows away my experience with vmware on linux.
A strictly windows machine never even crosses my mind anymore :) On Jul 30, 2010, at 9:56 AM, Sisk, Kris wrote: > > You can build a PC with the same power as a Mac Mini for around $400. > Less if you run Linux on it.
