Linux has the best eye candy ever made, and it's free... If more companies would make software for it... it would Kill Apple and MS..
And you know what the big companies are starting to make more software for it... Like Maya 3D by Autodesk $5,000 US and used by Pixar is now made for Linux... Because movie companies are moving over to Linux... one by one .. :)
I don't see why so many people like Macs. I know that they look awesome and stuff, but the price for a Mac is way wrong. Apple overcharges, I mean the Air goes for like 3000 dollars, but has less features than laptops that cost a forth of the Air's price. You guys know it's true. Vista was a mess up, we know that, but it's not too late, Microsoft still has a chance, and I truly believe that they will bounce back with Windows 7. Give Microsoft a chance, they can still beat Apple if they try hard.
I have personally never owned an Apple computer or anything close, simply because they are so heavily overpriced that I've never been able to own one... Which leads back to me having NO CHOICE but to own a Windows system... To make things even worse, I need a laptop for work, and we all know what it's like trying to find fuckin' drivers for laptops...
One thing I do know though is that WINDOWS IS HORRIBLE and if I could get a OS X system for a good price, which I now CAN, I definitely would.
If they somehow manage to win the case (a local company against a multi billion dollar international? Yea, right.) then all hell will break loose. Dell would be the first to ditch Windows for OSX, followed by Sony. You heard it first from me!
A Mac is more powerful than Windows. There are five programs I use on a mac. A bazillion I use on a PC. The five programs on the mac work fine, but again, ONLY FIVE PROGRAMS. Plus, have you tried networking with a mac??? Every damn time you want to pull from a PC server (or linux for that matter), it blows! Plus, as soon as mac's take over majority market, people will start hating it for the same reason people hate IE. Apple pie LMAO!
I think now Microsoft is desperately trying retain there exiting users with Windows 7. There is some good improvements on OS beta. Especially performance. May be this will help MS to reduced the no of switchers.
In the Psyster case as Psyster won it. I think it will help Apple in increasing market share of the OS. especially the low budget PC market which Apple was not really interested. Mac user based will continue to buy Apple h/w.
fuck psystar. they are ripping off of the OSx86 community, not giving credit, and turning Apple against osx86. in case u dont noe, osx86 makes it possible to run OSX on a regular pc. Apple doesnt really care about it but now that fucking Psyshit is selling our work- making it a mac clone, apple is probably gonna let the hammer come down on osx86 - just to get rid of psystar. its bullshit
I saw a new Mojave commercial where these idiots didn't even know they were on Vista, and these people are supposed to tell us what is good and what isn't? And those are definitely controlled experiments. Microsoft is failing. And I can't wait for it to be Linux, Mac, and some new guy.
Compare an all in one desktop to another. The base model hp all in one is actually more expensive than an imac. Give up. You're lame and retarded. You're making this too easy.
The base model HP touchscreen is 100.00 more than an imac. If I'm fucking retarded for being able to point out a fact, then what does that make you? Because you present no facts at all, only stupid opinions; and you try to refute facts that are not refutable. Good God, man, just make your last video on Youtube committing suicide already. You fucking suck at life.
are you talking to me? also i wasnt talking about the touch screen i was talking about the media center all in one at best buy in comparison to the best buy Macintoshes i use retail stores because that where most people buy these computers on HPs website its cheaper than the imac but in stores its different
I did make a reply to you, but I don't see it. None of my crude remarks have been to you. I like your vids. I think your objective and honest. My comment towards you was about Kreative.
I have OSX just for the sake of having it.(being a geek) Vista/Xp for compatablilty/gaming, and I use Linux for all the odd bits such as torrents and stuff I'm afraid to get viruses from.
if you were a gamer you'd use vista or buy a console. besides linuux can play all PC games through wine and OSX has a fair amount of games theres no excuse to use winblows it isnt the 90s anymore kid
If apple improved front row and made it okay to install on non- apple computers then I would most likely run it full time if they just made it okay to have it on PCees I would still probely run it but front row compared to windows media center is junk other than that mac os x is AWESOME. I have ran os x 86 but it never worked well. my GPU was not reconized as what it was, my duelcore cpu was reconized as a single core and I had to have my install disc in on boot. this is my 5 cents. bye bye
Psystar would not win, they are installing a hacked version of OS X. They think is legal because they are sending a retailed copy with the computer, by they way if your computer crash and you had to reinstall you would have to hack it.
I use Vista, Linux and Mac OS X. My father runs Ultimate(vista) it has been running almost a year without crashing. I can't say that for my macbook or my mythbox.
I use all three OSes regularly, if it were only OSX or Vista, I'd choose OSX. Vista is way too demanding and Microsoft have really put the cart before the horse on this one. OSX's unix heritage gives it a nice edge in realiability and security. In OSX vs XP, I'd choose XP as it's well established, stable and well supported. While the server side of Linux is excellent, I don't like using it for desktop, way too many toolkits, GUIs and window managers all competing to make it a bit of a mish-mash.
Okay, I'll rephrase that; I use all three OSes *mentioned* (and I have over 10 years ISP sysadmin experience, and I find your comment a little pedantic - unless it was done humorously, in which case I'll let you off without a flaming :) )
id chose windows. games are what i use my computer for. Sure, macs have games, but windows just has so much more. games are the only reason that i run windows.
Id stay with Vista easily, since i installed Vista i love it, the reason people hate it is becuase MS sold Vista saying the recomended specs are lower then what they actually are so people got slow machines and blamed vista. If Microsoft made Vista Ready as Higher specs we would see more people loving it, also vista needs to be 64bit only as u need 4GB ram to personnaly feel the advantage.
apps on OSX thrive on the hardware the software tells it exactly what kind of hardware to use for instance if it detects your on an imac and you want to connect to the web wirelessly you must use airport if not your screwed
1.) Vista isn't as bad as everyone makes it out to be. I find it to be more steamlined, and intuitive than Windows XP. Unfortinatly when Microsoft released it, they forgot to tell the OEM companies to sell their computers that have vista with at least the minimum requirements for vista.
2.) People bitch about how much their computers suck because people get viruses, a lot. Vista tackles that with the UAC and windows bit defender, and does a decent job with it.
Ubuntu + Wine has as much compatibility as Vista and more and its free and 8.04 is way more user friendly almost as user friendly as Vista. so who needs that $400 OS for something you can have for free?
Wine isn't compatible with alot of things. And with the things it ARE compatible with, sometimes they run really shitty or GTK fucks up the program's useability. I used ubuntu for a very long time. You don't wanna start.
which version? homebasic= fail homepreium = fail if you have ultimate its accpetable. but the other two? ubuntu is better ioff the live cd then though piles of shit
Yes I use Ultimate. The only thing different about Home premium is that it doesn't come with BitLocker and some other minor security features. Plus Microsoft releases small extras for Ultimate users every so often. I just downloaded 2 Ultimate-Exclusive sound schemes a week ago.
Quit fucking flooding you are missing the damn point of this video if you want to do macc vs pc go to a mac vs pc video this is a news related disscussion GTFO
What is that supposed to mean? My statement was in response to a user that said "OS X is nothing but a GUI and the internals are all UNIX" which was a very stupid thing to say. When the OS is running and you open a Terminal windows, it's being emulated. It's not exactly the same as Verbose mode although it can give you the impression that it is.
I've been a PC user for a long time, but if Apple sold OS X for other PCs, I'd buy a copy in a heartbeat. But as long as Apple tries to keep OS X restricted to their own computers, non-Apple owners will be forced to stick with Windows for a while longer. I don't think most people will want to buy a whole new computer just to switch to a different OS.
Personnally I think apple should approch Psystar. There's a market out there for a cheep mac, that has a decent number ports, and will fit comfortably on a desk.
Same specs desktops cost a lot more than the Mac Pro. I just gave you the Dell T5400 as an example. Psystar no longer exists. Their HQ is on sale for $4.6 million dollars.
I used a PC until about 8 months ago. At first, when I got a Mac, the UI was kinda confusing but after about a week I got the hang of it and it became easier to use than Windows.
When you use a Mac, you have to forget about how you used Windows and start all over because they're different.
Then don't fucking buy it. I'm not forcing you to do it. If you want to run SHITTY Windows, then use that. I don't give a shit if you can't afford it.
He's the one that keeps replying to my comments like an idiot. I already told him to use shitty Windows if he wants but he decided to keep talking shit. What can I say?
your kiddin bro, "Apple doesn't want to become a monopolistic company, and if their OS is open they will do" are you kidding!! Apple already is a monopolistic company, think about it, you have to buy their hardware to use their software, you have to use iTunes to use your ipod which means anyone who buys an ipod has to use itunes, c'mon bro.
Hey Samuel, This OSX being run on PC hardware is really nothing new (Hackintosh), several people have done it, just that a company is capitalizing on it. I'm against them doing it because they violated the OpenSource agreement for the Darwin OS (OSX for PC). Apple does frown on the idea of using OSX on a PC, but won't take legal action against you if you install it on your own PC and used a legal copy.
Psystar will be non existent with in a few weeks, Apple will shut them down, and trust me Apple will make an example of this company by totally destroying them and there owners, just to show people you cant fuck with the MAC......
great topic! Personally I switched from Microsoft to apple a few months ago. I used vista on some demo machines and i could find no real advantages.... no functional additions. Microsoft should continue to develop XP rather than keep starting from scratch... I think one of the main reasons apple make their own hardware is so they can shape the complete user experience and ensure that absolutely everything will work perfectly. Miscellaneous hardware can cause unwanted problems.
First off, good topic. I think Apple's growth will soon plateau if they don't come out with a mid-range mac & lower there prices a bit. I think the attraction to the psystar pc is it's price & the flexibility of the configuration. This is one of the reasons windows is so popular in the beginning & is one of its advantages over Apple's closed system. So as long as Apple's has its higher prices & closes system it will remain small in market share terms & will allow MS to keep making mistakes.
This is not the reason why Windows is popular. PCs comes with Windows. It's unavoidable if you are not in to custom building. MS insisted sw license models. It began with MS-DOS and later Windows. MS doesnt have to do with hardware where Apple does.
but you must realize if apple pushed OSX like mcrosoft does windows they would die one of the benefits of having a mac is how much they are worth. heres an example my Mac is a year old i bought at $986 its still worth $962 i bought a Vista laptop at $410 itts worth $56 now
failure, its actually being adopted alot more then when released, i work in a computer shop and alot more people are buying it now, especially with SP1. I don't see your problem with Vista? what "MAINSTREAM" software hasn't worked with it? nad there shouldn't be any instabilities unless your hardware is shit!
I personally don't see any problems with this. As someone who has paid the "Apple Tax" one too many times, I would love to be able to put together a PC to my liking and run the OS instead of paying near double for the hardware that apple has put together for me (and depending on the type you get, most are designed to be replaced rather than upgraded). I'm sure that if Microsoft said that Windows would only run on MS Approved hardware, Mac fans would go nuts crying "Monopoly!!" at them. (cont'd)
Part of that reason is still because Apple's OS can only be run on Apple hardware. Like you mentioned in the video - Dell would love to sell an OSX PC, but Apple just won't let them. You can't have it both ways (highest marketshare and yourself being the only manufacturer). Imagine how many people would be running OSX if they could on their existing PC's. Linux definitely isn't for everyone, really just leaving Windows as the only other choice in the PC OS world.
Are you including all of the business and schools that use Windows Products? How about the research labs? There really isn't that much use for OSX in these institutions.
Apple sells fairly well in the consumer market though.
hey, so what your saying is when apple grows to a more healthy number in sales and the more people that use them they would allow OS X to be installed on dells, sony's and other brands of computers?
right that suprises me a bit but does make sense.. i thought apple would just start making more them selves to fit the needs of more people. but apple would still sell laptops and desktops im guessing, just apple wouldnt be the only brand you could get OS X on?
Must be the most stupidest comment i've heard on YouTube for a while... "Apple don't want to become big". They (Apple) are a business, they want people to switch from Windows to Apple so their profits/revenues increase. Your a joke unfortunately, seriously - some people. lol
I am a PC lover, but hate Vista, I would use OS X, but I think the real question is how windows 7 comes out, Minwin is small that Unix, depends on how windows 7 is if it is really good then apple will likely loose marketshare. If it is bad then good bye MS.
hey i mite get a mac mini too but do u think imac is better cuz thats where im stuck i mean imac has everything there for you or mac mini since they are cheaper.
as a windows user i would pick os x as vista has been a bit of a disaster, but i don't think oems would be good for apple as i think it would turn them into another microsoft, but i do think apple should release a mid-range mac pro style mac,i think would do more for apple than any any oem could. at least in my opinion
No I would not. The reason is because I do not like Mac software that much.

Oh yeah, great comeback
Timalay 3 years ago
comeback for what? You don't even have a decent argument. STFU.
MacOSXrulez 3 years ago
Coz you made a childish statement.
Timalay 3 years ago
What childish statement? *sigh*
That you don't know how to write? That's not a childish statement, and neither is calling you a cheap ass.
MacOSXrulez 3 years ago
Just go away, and come back when you've grown a pube.
Timalay 3 years ago
Nice comeback. Thanks for showing further your stupidity.
Grow up and shut up already.
MacOSXrulez 3 years ago
No why should I, you started on me buddy.

Started on what? You're the one that replied to my comment with nonsense. Fuck off troll.

I'm not rich and neither a cheap ass. You don't need to go to one extreme or the other.

But there is not dening that Mac Pros are expensive.
Timalay 3 years ago
They are expensive but not overpriced.
A Dell T5400 Workstation costs a lot more ($4,125) and you get worse specs.
MacOSXrulez 3 years ago
It's still not as cheep as some of the of the same spec desktops. That's why I think that Pystar should work with apple.
Timalay 3 years ago
Same specs desktops cost a lot more than the Mac Pro. I just gave you the Dell T5400 as an example. Psystar no longer exists. Their HQ is on sale for $4.6 million dollars.

I've got nowt against Apple. I've tried them and just can't get on with the UI.
Timalay 3 years ago
I used a PC until about 8 months ago. At first, when I got a Mac, the UI was kinda confusing but after about a week I got the hang of it and it became easier to use than Windows.
When you use a Mac, you have to forget about how you used Windows and start all over because they're different.
MacOSXrulez 3 years ago
Nah sorry I just don't get on with OSX. I don't want to be converted, End of.
Timalay 3 years ago
I don't want to convert you... if you want to use outdated Windows, then be my guest.
MacOSXrulez 3 years ago
It's not just me that uses this computer though.
Timalay 3 years ago
Same thing happened here. My mom had to learn how to use a Mac.
MacOSXrulez 3 years ago
Sorry but I can't afford it. END OF
Timalay 3 years ago
Then don't fucking buy it. I'm not forcing you to do it. If you want to run SHITTY Windows, then use that. I don't give a shit if you can't afford it.
MacOSXrulez 3 years ago
Well it's your opinion about windows. I like it, but I DON'T LIKE PEOPLE FORCING THEIR VIEWS ON ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Timalay 3 years ago
I'm not forcing anything to you, you idiot!
Like I said, if you want to use shitty windows, use it.
MacOSXrulez 3 years ago
But I don't think it's shitty, and I like try out new OS. Atm i'm trying out Linux.
Timalay 3 years ago
Good for you. Linux>Windows.
Even if you think Windows is shitty, it is and always has been. It uses an outdated File system and a bloated and old kernel.
MacOSXrulez 3 years ago
I happen too like Windows over OSX, I'm sorry but that's my opinion. But forgot opinions are banned on the internet.
Timalay 3 years ago
Ok. I don't care about the opinion of computer noobs like yourself. Use Windows if you want. Like I said, nobody is forcing you to use OS X.
MacOSXrulez 3 years ago
Good because I don't want too use it
Timalay 3 years ago
alright boys you done fighting? seriously this is the most childish thing ive seen XD
SamueltehG33k 3 years ago
He's the one that keeps replying to my comments like an idiot. I already told him to use shitty Windows if he wants but he decided to keep talking shit. What can I say?

your kiddin bro, "Apple doesn't want to become a monopolistic company, and if their OS is open they will do" are you kidding!! Apple already is a monopolistic company, think about it, you have to buy their hardware to use their software, you have to use iTunes to use your ipod which means anyone who buys an ipod has to use itunes, c'mon bro.

Mac fans... Activate... go command Q on Psystar.
Hey Samuel, This OSX being run on PC hardware is really nothing new (Hackintosh), several people have done it, just that a company is capitalizing on it. I'm against them doing it because they violated the OpenSource agreement for the Darwin OS (OSX for PC). Apple does frown on the idea of using OSX on a PC, but won't take legal action against you if you install it on your own PC and used a legal copy.
blacksteel25 3 years ago
yes but being sold is
besides im becoming more of a linuux guy gut i like macs
SamueltehG33k 3 years ago
Psystar will be non existent with in a few weeks, Apple will shut them down, and trust me Apple will make an example of this company by totally destroying them and there owners, just to show people you cant fuck with the MAC......

it might be a hoax check my update
SamueltehG33k 3 years ago
The Hackintosh guys have been f#*$ing the mac since they switch to intel..Apple has not destroyed them...

seems like a hoax more and more are switching to that conclusion
SamueltehG33k 3 years ago
great topic! Personally I switched from Microsoft to apple a few months ago. I used vista on some demo machines and i could find no real advantages.... no functional additions. Microsoft should continue to develop XP rather than keep starting from scratch... I think one of the main reasons apple make their own hardware is so they can shape the complete user experience and ensure that absolutely everything will work perfectly. Miscellaneous hardware can cause unwanted problems.
h4inf 3 years ago
First off, good topic. I think Apple's growth will soon plateau if they don't come out with a mid-range mac & lower there prices a bit. I think the attraction to the psystar pc is it's price & the flexibility of the configuration. This is one of the reasons windows is so popular in the beginning & is one of its advantages over Apple's closed system. So as long as Apple's has its higher prices & closes system it will remain small in market share terms & will allow MS to keep making mistakes.
D73MF 3 years ago
This is not the reason why Windows is popular. PCs comes with Windows. It's unavoidable if you are not in to custom building. MS insisted sw license models. It began with MS-DOS and later Windows. MS doesnt have to do with hardware where Apple does.
doebe 3 years ago
but you must realize if apple pushed OSX like mcrosoft does windows they would die one of the benefits of having a mac is how much they are worth. heres an example my Mac is a year old i bought at $986 its still worth $962 i bought a Vista laptop at $410 itts worth $56 now

Apple gets paid either way opening up is a great idea now with the failure of.....VISTA.
RickArter 3 years ago
failure, its actually being adopted alot more then when released, i work in a computer shop and alot more people are buying it now, especially with SP1. I don't see your problem with Vista? what "MAINSTREAM" software hasn't worked with it? nad there shouldn't be any instabilities unless your hardware is shit!
djlobb 3 years ago
I personally don't see any problems with this. As someone who has paid the "Apple Tax" one too many times, I would love to be able to put together a PC to my liking and run the OS instead of paying near double for the hardware that apple has put together for me (and depending on the type you get, most are designed to be replaced rather than upgraded). I'm sure that if Microsoft said that Windows would only run on MS Approved hardware, Mac fans would go nuts crying "Monopoly!!" at them. (cont'd)
sofdec22 3 years ago
microsoft is a monopoly come on
OS market share
13% Apple
85% Microsoft
2% other
sure apple has grown but microsoft still controls the market like an iron fist
SamueltehG33k 3 years ago
Part of that reason is still because Apple's OS can only be run on Apple hardware. Like you mentioned in the video - Dell would love to sell an OSX PC, but Apple just won't let them. You can't have it both ways (highest marketshare and yourself being the only manufacturer). Imagine how many people would be running OSX if they could on their existing PC's. Linux definitely isn't for everyone, really just leaving Windows as the only other choice in the PC OS world.
sofdec22 3 years ago
Let's think about what the market really means...
Are you including all of the business and schools that use Windows Products? How about the research labs? There really isn't that much use for OSX in these institutions.
Apple sells fairly well in the consumer market though.

hey, so what your saying is when apple grows to a more healthy number in sales and the more people that use them they would allow OS X to be installed on dells, sony's and other brands of computers?
123Jake110 3 years ago
sure is looking that way even dell has said this " if apple offered us OSX we would leave windows in a heart beat."
SamueltehG33k 3 years ago
right that suprises me a bit but does make sense.. i thought apple would just start making more them selves to fit the needs of more people. but apple would still sell laptops and desktops im guessing, just apple wouldnt be the only brand you could get OS X on?
123Jake110 3 years ago
apple is a little stubborn but it might be good its only on macs

Must be the most stupidest comment i've heard on YouTube for a while... "Apple don't want to become big". They (Apple) are a business, they want people to switch from Windows to Apple so their profits/revenues increase. Your a joke unfortunately, seriously - some people. lol

SamueltehG33k 3 years ago
I am a PC lover, but hate Vista, I would use OS X, but I think the real question is how windows 7 comes out, Minwin is small that Unix, depends on how windows 7 is if it is really good then apple will likely loose marketshare. If it is bad then good bye MS.

as a windows user i would pick os x as vista has been a bit of a disaster, but i don't think oems would be good for apple as i think it would turn them into another microsoft, but i do think apple should release a mid-range mac pro style mac,i think would do more for apple than any any oem could. at least in my opinion
