[filmscanners] RE: Digital Darkroom Computer Builders?

["Laurie Solomon" <laurie@advancenet.net>]

Come on Rodger and Austin; let's not get into a juvenile platform fight, a
childish my old man can beat your old man type of discussionm, nor a
meaningless and uninformative statement of personal preferences which have
no bearing on the question at hand unless the question is what is you
preferred platform or what is you least preferred platform.

Neither platform is a necessary nor sufficient component in any system used
for digital darkroom work unless one is using a closed loop system which has
been designed around a given platform and that platform only.  The choice of
platform is a practical and/or personal preference.

Rodger,

Because some programs, that some people have no choice in using, are not
available on the Mac.

I also don't believe that the "graphics" of a Mac is any better than that of
a Windows machine.
