i recentley built a brand new pc ,p4 3.4 ghz, 1gb ram, xp pro, and it allredy seems to be giving me problems. such as freezing ,crashing ,slowness, and lots of other wonderful things. what i want to know is if all the stuff im hearing about mac and linux is true, eg "they dont get viruses they dont crash they dont freez they run much smoother and faster etc. dose any one use these things and are they reely as great as they say they are?? or are all computers just headache machines? i have used an old power mac befor ,os 7.5 i think, and it wasent much better ,it crashed all the time and was slow as sh*t. but what is os x like??
