He is trying to get our office to switch to macs. Apple sales people piss me off more and more everyday!! they are like: "the cheapest mac is much better than the most expensive PC and a must have tool for creative geniuses that need barriers lifted!"
The graphics cards in the 10 cheapest levels of macs can barely play a movie properly let alone video editing which is far more demanding.
It's not until you start dropping 1500$ for a imac you get a GT 750M which only an apple fan would call even half way decent.
I hate them all so much!! Remembering all the people over the years feeding BS about how macs are the best, only because they don't want to feel stupid for buying one.
I just built and donated a Desktop for a local charity, it cost me less than 800$, and I know it can outperform any mac sold in stores.
Then they try to use software as an excuse, "OSX has the best video editing software...!!" - All of the 'good' video editing programs used by real 'geniuses' were written for Windows first then ported to mac. Using imovie to put together clips of your kids birthday doesn't require a 1500+$ computer.
And they had 5400 RPM hard drives for years, even the cheap 500$ windows laptops come with 7200rpm, and they recently started putting tiny SSDs and people are like "OMG!! its so fast!"
And don't even get my started on the bootcamp argument, why the hell would you buy a mac if you need to install windows on it?
