Every time i try to argue with a Mac user its always "Well its just better", No matter what i say or what facts i have their only response is "It's just better". I can bring out hardware details and sh*t, their only response is "It's just better", and frankly it pisses me off.

I thought you were gonna whip out your weiner there for a second. I gotta be honest, I'm disappointed.

The whole mac thing though, meh. It's apples and oranges really.

Macs ARE BETTER for some things. If you don't believe this you are an idiot.


However, these things are not most of the things I care about though so I'll stick with my PC>

If I were to buy a new computer, it would probably be a mac mainly because, I don't know, viruses for one thing, running norton once a week is so painful especially with all the junk on this computer (get to format it this summer... yes!) so not having to worry about that would be awesome. My brother and my mom both have mac laptops and I personally find them much easier to use than a pc laptop. and since ill probably get a laptop next ill be getting a mac.
So I guess the final tally is:
Desktop: PC (dont like mac desktops)
Laptop: Mac

I don't like macs much, but if I was ever going to get into video editing, a mac would be my first choice due to its' speed.

I don't mind MACs. I just hate their fucking advertising.

Basically these two comics sum up what I mean.

I have a mac for my laptop and its been nothing but useful. It has never crashed, never gotten a virus, and never given me any cause for alarm. It just works. For school, there really isn't anything better (except for my C++ class which isn't compatible with the 3rd party software that will let me code on a mac.

As for pc, I love them. Sure, they can be buggy and get viruses and cause problems. They're fun, they're fashy, they get the job done. All the games I ever wanted and more while still having expandability. It's a nice mix.

As was said before, to each his own. I choose both.

One more thing, here are some reason's why a mac is better than windows box:


- OSX is built on top of FreeBSD, which is a type of UNIX. Unix was invented before you pricks were even a sperm trying to get outa your dad's nutsack. UNIX is straightforward, powerful, and flexible. Unix is the core of FreeBSD, Linux, OSX, and several others. The stability of Unix (Linux) is unmatched by any Microsoft OS. The majority of websites on the internet are served by a Linux apache box..... just to show how stable it really is. Mac OSX does not crash or BSOD the same way a windows box will. OSX does not "install" applications to a "registry", like windows, but rather runs "images" of the applications. Microsoft is playing catch up by deploying something you may have seen called ".NET framework". No matter how you slice it, OSX is superior to ANY windows OS.

- New features.... the concept of a graphical operation system that uses "windows" was FIRST implimented on macintosh boxes. THen microsoft came along and stole the idea. Microsoft, in fact, has yet to develop a new feature in an OS.. lol. Windows Vista is more like OSX than XP... but OSX has been out for YEARS. Widgets.... MS fanboys said they were stupid, well, vista has them now.

- Every updated OS that gets released is actually faster than the previous one. Imagine that... a programming methodology that makes the OS more efficient instead of just adding sh*t to slow it down. You can run the latest version of OSX on a 600mhz box with 256mb of ram.... try doing that with XP SP2 and see how well an app will run.



Of course, there are things that are deficits, such as: price, expandability, and the smaller software library that hinder the mac user. However, since you are a narrow minded pinhead, you of course exagerate these things and downplay the advantages.


All in all, the same argument could be said about Linux, Unix, Palm, Pocket PC, Symbian, and the hundreds of other OS's out there... if you don't like it or it doesn't suit your needs, then f*ck off and stop complaining.
