I have a Mac OS-X... Love it. I have the Windows package uploaded, so I have Word, Excel, Power Point, etc.

It's got great features that, honestly, no PC I've ever had could ever touch.

Garage Band is one, and it comes standard and is far better than any PC software for recording and layering music.

If the moron bought a Mac before knowing he couldn't play games, then it's his own damn stupidity for doing so. Apple has never marketed the Macs as a gaming computer.

Not that I believe he purchased a Mac.

Obviously if you're into computer gaming, you go PC. Otherwise, there's not much better about PC's.

I had two for almost seven years, but I worked with Macs at work and at school. Finally I decided, since I'm not a gamer, liked what the Mac offered over what the PC offered.

Relax, It was a funny video poking fun at MACS. Everyone knows they aren't gaming machines.

BTW, I have nothing against MACS. They make my desk look "stylish".

I have two Macs. I like them a lot better than PCs, but I do design/video editing. And it's just a preference, anyway. They both have their benefits, but I'd never go back to a PC.

And Shoog - you CAN run a mouse with a scroll wheel on it on a Mac.

I'm using a mac. It's a 1.2gHz PowerBook G4 that runs on an OS X 10.4.9.

Fuck windoze. Crashes at every 30-second interval.

So how come the scroll wheel isn't standard on the mouse that comes with it?

I have both at home and at my office.


I have 3 PC ( 2 intel core duo HP and one AMD 64 Clone) I also own a PowerPC G5 (Duo) with a 23" LCD Screen, 2 iMac ( one 17" G5 and one 20" Core Duo) and a Core duo MacBook 17"-


The Macs are more stable, I don't use anti virus on them, and they are always running. They aren't perfect, but are better.
I use them for work, not gaming, also the PC's are for general office work.

Windows still crashes and have a lot of Virus and worms bothering all the time.

I am not a mac preacher, I just use them both, but at the end of the day if I have to choose one, I will take the PowerPC G5 (Duo) with me

I have a Mac, and all you really need to know is three things.

1) Windows made PCs more like Macs. Anyone who's used DOS commands knows this.

2) Vista is very OS X like. I have a PC desktop, and Vista is like the Tiger OS I have on my iBook.

3) I have ITunes loaded on both my Mac and PC, and my iBook, with it's lightning fast 800 mhz processor burns CDs and uploads them faster than my AMD 64 X2 equipped desktop. Don't get me wrong, the desktop is fast as hell, but when it comes to running an Apple program, it's slower than my Mac.

Make of it what you will.

I honestly can't remember the last time I was using Windows and it crashed ... either at home or at work.

Actually, I do. And that was when I was running Windows ME on my laptop (which is what it came with) about 4-5 years ago, and ME sucked hardcore. I've never had a problem with XP.

On my laptop, or the GF's Toshiba laptop, I use the page down to scroll around, you know, seeing as how some laptops (Mac and PC) don't have scroll wheels.

It really isn't that hard.

most of what I fix is caused by ie exployer errors and spyware and virus

I guess you could say user error because they do not use firefox or check for spyware regular
