MAC is an acronym for Media Access Control, which is a protocol that networking devices use to identify each other. The acronym does not refer to computers manufactured by Apple, which are called Macintoshes, a name which is commonly shortened to Mac. Not MAC.

I do want to check a Mac out at some point simply because I do a lot of photography and photoshop work. Pretty much everyone on both sides of the issue says they can’t be beat in the graphics arena.

I’m happy with the PC but I get awfully bogged down by all the graphics work I do. I’ll probably end up with both at some point.
