Could hardly be described as 'easy to use' unless you area complete acid-casualty, a bit like Mr Kraus.

photoshop plugins, with the millions of windows, that totally tke over the programme so you lose real time preview, and theres no explanatory text for what you're doing, and loads of unlabelled buttons, and......*breathes*

# I don't WANT easy!
I'm a friggin' game designer, this is so simplistic it's numbing my MIIIND!

I need complexity! I need endless string of "There was an error type 142 in matrix Z on line MMXMSH:859833, please fornicate now."

I LIKE that stuff, aaaargh!

# osx?
I don't like the interface either to be honest - much prefer os9, but i appreciate why x is better, stability wise.

i used to use a pc, it was utterly shite. I'm amazed that the very stupid people in the world seem to be able to manage with something so ugly and unintuitive. (I mean the general population. not you, by the way!)

# Well, true...
I'll admit that PCs take a much longer time to learn, but I've been working with them since I was six, and I find that they're much more versatile once you get used to them.

So it's settled:

Intelligent people and REAL MEN use PCs, whiney babies and morons use Macs :)

# well,
these days, if parents are buying their kids a computer, they'll go for a pc cos they can afford it. i know that's why i was brought up on them (amongst others that died out).

my dad was one of the first people in the country who got to play with first generation macs, and he loved them, but he went and became a teacher and so couldn't afford them.

but anyway, you usually end up being most comfortable with what you learn first.

It's not about price with me, believe me.

I just like them better, I think PCs sort of "take you in" more. Here I am, sitting at a Mac, and I feel like I'm sitting at a desk...which I am.

A PC makes me feel as if I'm actually IN the computer, especially with games, it's much more immersive.
