I want to know which is better and easier for like getting to your movies and music and stuff, and for gaming, lets assume for the sake of argument I run them both on a computer with

Intel® Core™2 Duo mobile processor T7250; 4GB DDR2 memory; DL DVD±RW/CD-RW drive; 13.3" widescreen; 320GB hard drive; fingerprint reader; built-in webcam; Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit with SP1 ( also say it's window's vista Ultimate )

Also which is more secure against like viruses and Trojan horse programs, Spyware ext.

  1. Leopard by a mile for getting or creating movies and music (iLife08) and probably XP for gaming.

    Get a MacBook Pro as it has a better graphics card which can be upgraded and run VMware on it which is suited for Windows and PC gaming.

    The MacBook Pro will run 4GB of RAM easily.

    Anyone that says Macs are "slow" doesn't know how to use one properly.

  2. Mac osx leopard, without doubt. The easy access of getting around and cool features is a gamers delight. But id reccomend getting a mac for leopard. Have fun

  3. xp pro

  4. on a mac (presumably with leopard) you can run windows vista too. double the fun! and besides, leopard is a far better system from an ease of use standpoint as well as aesthetically.

    good luck!

  5. Vista, hands down.

  6. I definitely think Mac OS Leopard is a huge step up for apple, i have found absolutely no flaws since i downloaded it on my one year old macbook pro. The features are just amazing, the colors and the screen is so much more beautiful with leopard. New applications like Spaces and Time Machine make my life so much easier. There are over 300 new features, some of them are little and take a long time to find out but the ease and fun of using leopard is completely worth it. If you don't want to pay full price and have only one apple computer then you can go onto ebay.com and find it for much cheaper, just make sure its an authentic version. Overall I would give this new operating system an A+, I definitely recommend this to anyone with an apple computer, it has made my life and many others easier. The seamless compatibility with everything continues to astound me until this day. You should definitely buy Leopard over Vista you won't be disappointed. AND macs don't have any viruses so don't worry about any SPYware or antivirus software. A quick search of apple.com will show you how much better Leopard truly is.

  7. mac osx leopard is the best by a million! vista has tons of problems. and you cant run any mac osx of of a pc, but you can run vista or xp off a mac that has the software bootcamp. so if i were you i would get a mac computer with mac osx leopard, and bootcamp ussually comes with it, then you can install vista or xp. but mac osx leopard is better then vista and one who says vista is better is an idiot.

  8. Music Movies, I'd use the Mac though Windows would work fine also.  Games I would use Windows hands down, Mac lags behind in games.  

    Though for secure against viruses and such that would be a Mac over Vista.  

    Since however its already built for Windows I'd stick with that and not force Mac OS X on it, it won't run nearly as well as it would on an actual Apple computer.

    Then again there is always Linux but I'm just a Linux geek so there you have it :)
