OK,
Talked to a few PC users. Word has it that it's alright to use both. However, most folks recommend that you do go for a Pentium processor. Mostly for reliability, support and all that rhythm. Compatibility is always going to be an isssue. Regardless of what processor it is. It's a PC thing I guess...
I know a couple of guys that use custom built PCs. SO if going MAC OSX is $$$ for you , a custom made PC might be another cool alternative. I'm considering doing so myself, 'cause I have a visual disability and as nice as Apple are they hardly provide any useful visual aid software. Writing letters and complaining didn't do a damn thing for me - Apple still don't give a shit.
OH well, we'll see how things go.
