so the time has come where i must decide whether to beef up my PC or go with a 1.8 ghz imac g5. here are some things to consider:
-my school teaches entirely on macs. pro tools, logic, final cut, shake, reason, and cubase are all a part of the program. having a Mac would allow me to work on my projects at home and at school, giving me one up on my classmates.
-i dont have a huge need for a spectacular soundcard. at least not at this point. the tracks i produce will be played thru a serato scratch live setup, which i hope to get in the next 8 months or so. no super crazy sound quality is needed because none of my tracks will ever get pressed.
-im tired of my device drivers on my PC becoming corrupt. im not sure if this is an issue for mac users, but ive had to format my hard drive 3 times in 6 months for corruption issues, all of which happened after i installed windows security updates.
-this machine will serve as my production machine for the next 2 years. the machine after that will be the most badass comp i can buy at the time, with no expense spared.
with that said, im leaning towards the mac at the moment. any input from you guys would be really helpful.
