It's a 24" imac, 2.8 ghz and 4 gigs of ram.
I've owned a ton of them though, and as long as you upgrade the ram, they can handle a ton of multi-tasking. I'm weird about having a lot of stuff up so I think that's one of the reasons I like them so much.
I do have XP on it running on the Parallels program and it works great when I need it, which is rare, so I don't even need my backup PC taking up space on the desk anymore.
Same for me.
But I have to admit, I am green of envy for some Mac Software.
Just the excel / spreadsheet thing - Numbers? I jizzed in my pants when I saw that.

I just recently switched to mac (imac 24" 4g ram).
The hardest was to find good alternative programs for the apps I was so used to work with. Especially it was hard to find a good text editor with built in ftp support. Now I'm happy with skEdit.
I still don't like the finder though, I was faster with windows explorer. Will have to give path finder a try, maybe this will solve this issue for me.

For work I use a Macbook.
For entertainment I have a Windows gaming PC I built with a top of the line graphics card (GTX 280) hooked up to a 1080p 52 inch Sharp LCD TV.

PC here. My first real computer was a Mac 8200 PPC back in '96. It cost me more than $10k with all it's upgrades and peripherals. What a fucking waste of money.
I do like Macs but I'm PC all the way now. I love building them, tweaking them, working and playing on them.

yeah i heard it was the most effect torture device at G-Bay. Thats how they got the terrorists to talk, make em use windows.
Same here, if you love working with the guts and insides of a computer you can do that with a PC and not really a Mac
wrong
I have worked professionally using PCs, Macs, and Linux boxes for 10 years. I've managed Windows and linux servers. I've written professional code for .NET, c++, php, java, and tons of other languages. And I've done desktop support for companies and my family (which is very large). And now I do a lot of work with virtual machines and associated technologies. I also have a computer science degree. So I feel like I am speaking with some authority on this issue.
The right answer is whatever you are most comfortable with. The more time you spend on a computer and the more critical its use is to your tasks, the more important that is and the more greatly your productivity will be influence by that one aspect.
That said, for most people (anyone who doesn't soley work with Microsoft specific technologies AND who does not wish to learn a new OS), I really think that macs are the superior option. The are more secure for the average person. Easier to learn. Simplier to operate, configure, and troubleshoot. The software is more consistent thanks to better utliized conventions. For the "advanced user", unix is a wonderful underlying operating system as are the applications the come standard with OS X.
I would rather build my machine custom tailored to my specs. than have an overpriced piece of shit.
