18 Sep How does the MacBook Pro stack up against Windows?
As a designer, I think Macs and Windows both do a good job with audio/video/photo editing. They run the same software and the interface for the programs is basically the same.

No one I know is comparing the sophistication of a Mac to a Dell. That’s like comparing Neiman Marcus to Wal-Mart. When you stack up a Mac against one of the high-end Sony Vaio laptops, especially the new carbon-fiber model with Blu-Ray, then the Mac begins to look a lot more pedestrian.
