That doesn't matter, a PC with better specs can do editing faster and more efficiently than any mac.

I have to admit this does look very nice.

I really like your desktop background.

In case you haven't noticed, many people don't care about that. Using Apple products is an experience, not specs on a piece of paper. I don't like Apple products (for several reasons), but that doesn't mean that others shouldn't. Stop being dicks, guys. If the guy wanted to play the latest games on uber-high settings, he wouldn't (or shouldn't) have picked up a Mac. If he wanted a simple, elegant editing/browsing experience on good hardware, he picked the right machine.

I'm not being a dick, I'm stating facts. PC's are better than Macs for editing.

I have the same phone! but the only thing that gets me, exactly what people said above or on the page before the apple is probably the only thing bad with your setup.

That's your opinion, not a fact. One is not better than the other. You can get better hardware for a lower price with Windows. That isn't the same as being better. It's the same exact software suites on both OSs (with OS X having a few more for video/audio editing). They're literally the exact same thing. The only difference is in the OSs, which means the user experience. People will pay for a higher quality experience, and that doesn't have to come from better hardware. OS X is able to deliver that at the cost of the Apple Tax.

Better hardware = Better performance in whatever you're doing most of the time. That mobile 6970 in the iMac will be outperformed by a superior 680 or 7970. You don't even know what CPU you're getting. Only the operating frequency and the core (i3, i5, i7). Also, that is not my opinion, that is fact.

The Apple tax isn't worth it, you're getting nothing for the insane price. People are paying a lot of money, they think they are getting a better quality experience, but in reality. They are not, you're paying money for the brand name and the apple logo.
