It depends solely on what type of user you are.

For pure aesthetics-+++++s, designers and shiny-pretty-powerful, the Mac is generally a better choice;
For gamers and general users (varied between pretty much everything), the normal PC with Windows is best;

I have a friend who's an avid Mac-user. He's shown me the prettiest things he can do with OSX, and some really spiffy features/functionality things that Windows lacks (along with speed at rendering so much visual beauty dynamically).
But it's not for me. I wouldn't ever go to Mac because, pretty and spiffy as they may be, they're not what I see as extremely efficient. I prefer using my screen real estate as much as possible, and OSX seems to 'flock' the windows by preference, rather than maximize everything...

so what I'm trying to say in my endless rant... an OS has an attitude, just like a game console. It depends on your attitude what OS or game console is best for you. So is the case with vB / IPB / all other forums.

From what I understand, IPB 2.0 when it's released won't have the free trial....
