With that said a standard user can buy the cheapest PC on the market and be perfectly happy. But I'm pretty sure having a Mac will get you laid. I simply can't think of any other reason to buy one. |
Oh jeeze, all the leading faculty at my campus must have been laid SO many times by now.

I think he was being sarcastic about that 
His real point was that there is no point to owning a Mac. Your "leading" faculty must be old and easily swayed by the Apple ads. I can almost guarantee that half of them don't even know some of the very basic features of their Macs because they simply use them for the very basic tasks such as MS Office, internet, and email.

Sarcasm was the whole point. . .
If you add in stuff like Adobe Illustrator, InDesign, Photoshop, Soundbooth, After Effects, and Final Cut you'll be close.

Well, if they are really using the CS4 suite (or older version) on a Mac then they are bigger idiots than I thought. You buy a Mac if you are a designer and want to use MAC ONLY software. If you are just using Adobe software that also runs on PC just as well if not better for the price, then.... yeah... you've wasted a lot of money.
There is nothing magical about a Mac that makes them "better" for design... especially using the same software available on PC's.
