From: Kenton Brede
I've decided to purchase a laptop for RAW image processing. I'm also
a budding nature audio recordist, so I'll be doing audio post
processing as well. So far I've only played with Bibble and Picassa a
bit processing photos. My plan is to give Photoshop and Lightroom a
try.
I would like to purchase a mac since it's unix based, but I need a
more compelling reason than that to justify spending the extra money.
Those of you who've used image processing software on both platforms,
what reasons made you settle on one OS over the other for working
images?
Thanks,
Kent
I use Windoze 'cause it's what I grew old with, starting in PC DOS days.
Never used a Mac until I encountered them here where I go to school. If
you want a Mac, get one.
Unix will run on PC hardware, and Macs are now based on Intel
processors. You can run OS-X on a PC by installing one of the unix
variations and laying OS-X on top of it.
Or so I'm told.
I'm using a Toshiba because it was cheap and had more hard-disk for the
dollar than any other laptop I saw when I was shopping for a new one.
I'm also told there's a Windoze emulator for Unix that will allow the
Windoze version of PHotoshop to run on Unix.
