PC or MAC for Designing Websites ?

Mac all the way. I am a composer first and foremost, and the Mac platform offers extreme performance and excellent stability, considering the competition, when it comes to high-end audio editing apps like Cubase(Twin dual-core 3.0gHz Xeons!!) and huge VST sound libraries(more HDD than CPU)

Windows, because I can run IE natively.

I design my web page by PC,and edit the HTML.For MAC ,I have use it edit picture.I never design web page by MAC.

sorry to say but MAC is done !!

there is nothing to make MACs standout from the PCs apart from the price

I use a PC because it's what I have access to.

Feel free to send me a Mac to play with for a few weeks, I'll be happy to take it for a test drive and send it back with an unbiased review. Hell, I'll even give you a biased review if you let me keep it.

=[[[ spork.... how could you?? =[ *shudder*
you can also install IE in linux >.< probably the easiest way is IEs4Linux

i use a PC.
and i use Linux.
its s0 easy to setup servers so you can test things locally. all you have to do to get a web server running with php, mysql, phpmyadmin, ....etc is execute one command >.< nothing more needs to be configured and it'll work. (although one may want to set a mysql root password)
i can use Windows if i have to, but i definitely prefer linux.

First of all; Who cares? Not me.

Secondly, I use Windows XP. I make front-end stuff mostly - web, print and multimedia. Most of the people using the stuff I create and most of the people I do work for are using Windows XP, so it makes sense like that.

Sure you do, why else would you comment on the subject ?

Doh!!!

exaaaactly.
so are you saying that just because what..70? ich habe keine ahnung...percent of the people that visit your site us XP, that that's the only target market you're going to design for?

Hehehe. Yeah, that is what I'm saying. Not the only target audience, but the primary one, anyway. It makes it more convenient when you work in the same environment.

I should have said, I've been stupid enough to participate in this debate more than once for about 12 years and the only thing I can figure is that it comes down to personal preference in the end.

There, damnit! I've said my peace. Never again! (Did that sound hollow?)

mm, after you asked if it sounded slightly hollow in my head >.<
still not sure how the hell you could prefer IE :/
but, *shrug*, whatever makes your skirt rise i guess..

I prefer BeOS.

mm i've never tried it but it sounds like they had a good idea.

Well, I actually use 5 browsers, oops...6 now, because I'm always doing some development work. I tend to just use the browser that's on top. However, if there aren't any browser open for some reason, I would use IE7. It's just a browser, I like it and you don't. Sorry it perplexes you.

The thing I can't get over is why I keep participating in this thread. Really! I can't help myself. It's like a black hole pulling me into nothingness or incredible denseness. It's the exact same conversation that I've been having for years. That's what perplexes me.

/me slaps myself around a bit with a large trout
