[QUOTE="Meyvn, post: 72529, member: 7539"] As a recent switcher (and therefore current Mac user), I can't give you a totally unbiased opinion about speed. I can, however, give you an example from personal experience, with no analysis involved. Just the other day, a friend of mine, who owns a fairly new laptop running Windows XP, with a 2.0 P4 processor, and he was showing some of our friends Photoshop CS, and its cooler features. I have a 1.33 GHz iBook, and also have CS. Well, with almost every single action, he had to spend around 5-7 seconds minimum rendering each one. I have yet to have to wait on an effect. I haven't even SEEN any indication of waiting in CS. Additionally, I noticed he had an almost comically large amount of peripherals just to get everything to work, and his battery life was about half mine (he had to get double batteries to even approach it.)
