All-in-One PCs
Just curious if anyone is using all in one PCs for image processing and
if yes which ones. Personally I'm currently eyeing some models with a 24" or 27" screen and 4K resolution. -- Alfred Molon Olympus E-series DSLRs and micro 4/3 forum at http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/MyOlympus/ http://myolympus.org/ photo sharing site |

The real way to go is, however to buy a Mini Mac and hook up a screen of your choice! Personally I'm currently eyeing some models with a 24" or 27" screen and 4K resolution. -- teleportation kills |

A Mac will run Windows as well as any other Intel machine. ....and you also have OSX to play with. -- Regards, Savageduck |

Bootcamp is next to useless. Run Windows in a VM such as VMWare Fusion or Parallels. iMac's are fantastic. For a Windows user who has a monitor, keyboard and mouse, the Mac Mini is a fine transition machine, but none come with a quad core i7. The newer iMac's with 5K retina displays are magnificent. -- "But I am somehow extraordinarily lucky, for a guy with ****ty luck." ..Harrison Ford, Rolling Stone - 2015-12-02 |

Run Windows in a VM such as VMWare Fusion or Parallels. boot camp is perfect for someone who buys a mac and only wants to run windows. iMac's are fantastic. For a Windows user who has a monitor, keyboard and mouse, the Mac Mini is a fine transition machine, but none come with a quad core i7. the 2014 model doesn't, but prior to that they absolutely did. the reason is because the quad core i7 has a different socket and it's not worth making a separate logic board for a low volume configuration. it also doesn't matter all that much. The newer iMac's with 5K retina displays are magnificent. very. |

Indeed it is. Many of Windows users find it works just fine, serves our purposes and is easily flexible to meet changing needs. I am not machine passionate. Nor do most Windows users I know, with one exception, fall in love with Apple. As for graphics uses, my daughter, who is a creative director, prefers a windows machine. I have used both, and seen little, if any, difference, except that not all Windows programs run well under VM. Also, despite what some here say. -- PeterN |

says... Why? Very simple - I don't have any Mac software. And I have no clue whether and how Windows will run on a Mac. If Apple were offering Macs with preinstalled Windows (why aren't they?), I would consider one. But I'm surprised that you suggest a Mac, when almost everybody is using Windows machines. I couldn't care less about Windows vs Mac vs Linux vs whatever. But since everything I have is with Windows, my next PC will be a Windows one. -- Alfred Molon Olympus E-series DSLRs and micro 4/3 forum at http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/MyOlympus/ http://myolympus.org/ photo sharing site |
