yeah, i hear you. unless you get a mac mini, you're talking (after tax and such) probably close to $2k for a computer. and then final cut is $1300...so yeah.Since I want to edit, people keep telling me to buy a mac, but I just can NOT afford one of those bastards.
I don't really like the interface of a Mac to be honest. I understand that it's cleaner, I guess I just got so used to Windows I find the adjustment hard.
And yes, Linux geeks suck hard core, but that penguin IS adorable, I'll give them that.
ETA: Edit film I mean
oh wow, really? i do prefer the interface of mac obviously it's so much more user-friendly. but windows isn't as bad as some make it out to be. although i've only ever run 3.0, 95, 98, me (god windows me sucked balls), and xp. basically, anything but vista i've heard terrible things about vista.
and you're right, the penguin is cute back before i knew what linux was, i wanted to switch just cuz of the logo
