Originally posted by gster123 As for Graphics standard, I think lots of studios run Pc's more than Macs I can kinda vouch for that... As a generalization from my personal experiences with Mac's and PC's, I've found that Mac's seem to run a bit slower; for no reason whatsoever. I mean just running; not Maya, not the internet, not anything... Anyway, studios are quite commonly time-is-money philisophical, and if it takes a Mac two minutes to power on, versus a PC taking 2 minutes to power on, log in, start up Maya and open one's project...well, you do the math; time spent waiting on your system is time not spent working on...well, work. Other than this, I've seen no difference between performance.
