I find the UI in some programs nicer but that is just personal preference. The only design software (large corporate companies like adobe) that is Mac only is the stuff made by Apple. Macs currently don't have a large enough market share for companies like Adobe to make mac specific apps. So the answer is Yes and No.	icow (15313)

So the answer is Yes and No. If you actually do some home work you will find that after Postscript Adobe produced software for the Mac. It was only after acquiring Macromedia that they really started producing for Windows.	mikebartnz (21)

1126796	2010-08-13 13:29:00	These days it's really just personal preference. There are no technical hardware advantages, and no longer any real software advantages as others have said. Macs have a user interface which many find more intuitive and just "better". Others, including myself, can't stand it. But generally, you find that people who are used to PCs and PCs only hate using Macs, and vice versa. This makes it very hard to say which is actually better (in regards to interface), if such a thing can be determined objectively at all. Probably, if someone did a study on it they may find out that the type of people that tend to be graphics designers simply tend to like Macs more. I wouldn't be surprised.	george12 (7)
1126797	2010-08-13 21:53:00	Certainly seems difficult to get a real objective conclusion. I note the master himself has been unable to clarify to any extent,I am talking Safari.	Cicero (40)
1126798	2010-08-13 22:01:00	Have a read here Cic It is pretty much what has been stated here already. graphicdesign.about.com	Safari (3993)
1126799	2010-08-15 10:05:00	"Apple has clearly focused their operating system on ease of use, introducing new features with each release that improve the user experience " Have to say ease of use was the reason I switched. My wife, mind you, thinks the same of her Asus running Win7, so it's really just a personal preference IMO.	limepile (96)
