Now-now JK, let's not start an OS discussion! :rofl:

That was my impression, although I suspect the protocols may be different?

Sorry, OS = Operating System, the occasionally debated topic about the merits and limitations of the Mac OS v the PC OS (Windows). Many, possibly most of the members here are Mac users; some are converts from PC's, others use both.

Well I use both but I also use Linux.
There are merits to each but I use my Mac more these days!

I am highly interested in mac`s , the stationary ones ( not impressed with the lap`s ), a bit worried in case of breakdowns , since everything is build t`gether , if the dvd drive gives up , the whole thing has to go for repair , and overhere that likely means several weeks , how are Yer experiences with that ? Are they highly resistent against wear&tear ,..or are some things user-replacable ?
At the moment I`m using a three yr. old lap pc , which after a few adjustments in LR goes ultra slow ,like several minutes before changes are registered , so a new " puter " is high on the list ,but 1st things 1st ,..I need to fix the car , turbo needs t` be looked after , new summer tires are in order , and several other thingies , so the new puter is n`t exactly around the corner , but I sure would like t` know more about mac`s longevity and how " speedy " it is , and how is the compatibilty with a PC , like I`m on holiday , save the shots on a lappy , when home , is it easy to load it into the mac ?:baffled:

Vic, can address all your points but it's late, have a long day tomorrow, just downloaded Lr5 so off to bed, will look again tomorrow.

To the best of my knowledge no current Mac has a CD/DVD drive. They are considered obsolete. They can however 'borrow' a dvd drive fitted to any nearby computer, or use an external drive, if you really do need to burn DVD's for example for video use. All software is downloaded.

Zzzzz

Vic-

You don't have to worry about the DVD drive breaking...they don't come in macs any more :-).

You can buy a superdrive that plugs into USB port, but Apple thinks CDs and DVDs are going the way of the floppy drive (I'm not really on board with that yet, but it is probably true :-)

I've had 3 macbook pros, other than a few dings in the aluminum case, I've not had any problem that couldn't get fixed in the shop (one needed a new screen due to dropping some photo gear on it - $300 careless penalty for being clumsy).

The change of systems is scary but not hard at all. The best part about mac is that all your stuff syncs really really well. They say "it just works" and they are partly right :-) ... It works better than windows did for me, at least.

Cheers,

Tom
