I've been toying with the idea of getting a mac for a few years but never bit the bullet!
My concern is it isn't going to live up to the hype!
I currently have a windows PC that is the following spec: (which i primarily use for photo editing)
Core2duo E6850
4096MB DDR2
320GB HDD
8600GT graphics
Vista Home Premium 64bit.
I am thinking of getting a similar spec (to my PC) imac 24" 2.8 and installing 4GB myself..
But people go on about how fast macs are due to the amazing OSX operating system but i am not quite convinced, yes i've played with a mac in the store, but it's not really the same!
So what i would like is rational and balanced opinions on whether i am REALLY going to see a big improvement in terms of speed??
Many thanks.
