I want to DJ....

[izotonik]

macs are just easier to set up. with asio u get the same latency values or better.

Could be, but i know one thing, i have loads of friends who DJ with computers, and all the Windows DJs have had troubles at one time. Most producers produce with windows nowadays, but they still perform with mac. That's not for nothing i think.

same problems as mac I think.
performing with a current use windows laptop, loaded with stuff... progs and antivirus, startup and background apps.. probabbly not a good idea. but if it is well configured and stripped, it will be stable.

and in general, Macs just have more proccessing power. In cheesy terms, they flop the bytes quicker.

mac is always releasing models with the latest cpu tech. but will a i7 6 core mac will process faster than pc with the same specs??
I don't think so.
some people don't even know their mac specs eheheh.

[Rmonik]

That's the thing windowser refuse to accept - it will. Hell, my Macbook pro with 2,4 Ghz intel dual core goes faster than my dads 3 something Ghz i5 quad.

[izotonik]

to believe that, only after running benchmark tests.
pc or mac djing.. whatever. any of them will do the job.

[Rmonik]

I wasn't trying to prove a point. You still get better specs for less money on a windows, i was just saying you can't blantly compare the specs of a mac to the ones in a windows.

[izotonik]

why not? there are no unique apple components. maybe some mods and custom parts.
you can run windows on a mac, and osx on a hackintosh pc.

people with recent new and glossy apple products are hopeless. the ones with scratched macbooks or iphones are more open minded!!
