As a Mac and Windows owner, I found this amusing.

Sadly I've never had such experiences myself before :)

My friend is taking some college courses in computer animation and has to use a mac. It crashes constantly when I attempts to save his work. He would toss his MAC into the garbage can if he didn't have to use it for school.

I thought windows computers were more likely to have those problems... well, i am going to find out first hand because i am going to get the new Dell XPS 12 Ultrabook (for my college class). I am going to compare them to the macs that i have and see which is superior.

May I ask what software is your friend using? I have used Adode Flash on a Mac OS X Leopard (version 10). It's really different from PC version. I have Adobe Flex & Adode flash on a PC but I don't used it often.

I personally prefer windows after using both, Mac lacks so much cross-compatability and costs in terms of performance. I do like specific features of the Mac OS more than Windows however overall I find less issue with Windows.

Maya.

Nice. Those files are pretty big and it's hard to save or to back up those files.

It's pretty expensive too unless your friend have those students & teachers voucher. Kinda like what Adobe offer to students & teachers a discount.

It's worth having.

Have you try to used Maya?

Me, not only no but Hell no. My friend got Maya free from his school. I don't know a thing about it, nor do I waste my time using a MAC.
