Re: Graphic Designer here, need to convincemy company i need a mac (not a pc) !

Rasat,

But i did not think that mattered as they are loaded into RAM when open.




Working with remote files is slower than working with them locally. And you open the door to possible file corruption.

The decision to use Win over Mac or Mac over Win is a personal one and has to do with comfort level, user interface, and just plain joy in using the particular machine or platform.

In the 18 years I've used Macs, I never found the particular conventions you cite as deal breakers. And certainly Windows is not without its peccadillos (but we will not spin this conversation into a platform flame war). On Macs, it takes virtually no time to create logically-ordered folders, or locate, rename, prioritize, move, dupe, or trash files from the Desktop (Finder) on a Mac. You can also do a "Save As..." within all apps and rename files at that time. As for cut and paste? You're kidding. Mac apps allow you to cut and paste within open files.

And yes, I can work on a lot of files in one day as well.

But then, I also name/rename and save my files properly as I create or import them. Again, I never consider the steps a problem or time waster. Why do you wait until you open them in an application before taking the time to properly name them or file them.

FTP? Or PDF? No problem creating PDFs from within Adobe applications. FTPs are sent via a standard utility such as Fetch or Transmit. Again, not an issue. At least not one that I see raised in the Mac forums.
