  • i guarantee you that the laptop she bought ran like a dog. Vista alone would make it seem like a Pentium III. Hope she upgraded to 7 or better yet, got a Mac.

  • MHz isn't really too important, look at the number of cores, they're won't be a major difference between a 2.5 ghz and 2 ghz processor. It is a Microsoft commercial so it's full of bullshit, in the same way that Mac commercials are...

  • @cockyjeremy your statements are retarded if you took the same exact specs and ran windows 7 on both the MacBook and other brand laptop the results would be the same your source is retarded and also if your running windows on a MacBook you can get the same spyware and viruses you really are stupid and think illogically but what else can I expect

  • oh mac are better

    not

  • lighter weight = more portability.  I highly doubt she was looking for just anything she can carry. Failure lol

  • I completely disagree with you and I know apple is fucking garbage but for some reason you don't piss me off like other mindless mac cultists (applesoldier) like to be. So I don't want to start an argument with you so I'll just let you have your opinion.

    Hmm you seem to be the first mac fan I've ever said that to...

  • did you hear the one about the Homosexuality mac user who posted high quality youtube videos?

    NEITHER DID I!

  • Holy fuck you're stupid, Please stop making videos you uninformed bastard. YES All laptops are portable but a 17" screen isn't portable at all. Please get off the internet, OS X is a piece of shit.

  • God, Apple fanboys just can't give up the fact that a mac sucks compared to Windows PC. We're sorry that you've had a terrible experience with fucking Windows NT 3.1 5 years ago and since then, you've hated Wndows, but I really doubt you have ever bought a 800$ windows PC. I guarantee a $800 Windows laptop can outperform any mac.

    Maybe if you actually bought a 800$ Windows 7 laptop, you can actually experience what it's like instead of living in the past.

    Also, stop downloading weird shit.

  • @austin1119 Outperform a Mac? lol. Sure thing. Is that why a Mac can run Windows faster than a PC with better specs? Fact. Look it up. Microsoft sucks, and PC manufacturers make shitty, cheap computers out of plastic.

  • @cockyjeremy

    That's funny.

    If you were to actually look up real websites, and not gizmodo faggotry that favors over a Mac, you would know that a Mac running Windows conflicts with hardware problems and doesn't run the hardware at 100%. I'm sorry that you're stuck with Windows NT 3.1 and Windows XP/Vista, but I really don't think you have ever tried Windows 7. Ooooh, Microsoft makes plastic laptops, that makes it so much more terrible than a mac! Ha, you're funny, your mac has heating problem

  • @cockyjeremy

    BECAUSE it's "aluminum" retarded casing. Oh, and guess what, who do you think makes Apple's hardware? None other than the shitty brand, Foxconn, which is cheap as hell. Apple only makes the case and the OS. If you were try Windows 7, it would be extremely blazing fast, but I see you're too ignorant to try anything other than a mac.

  • @austin1119 I used nothing but shitty PC's for 15 years. Longer than i've used Macs. PC's aren't faster than Macs, sorry. And nowhere close to as reliable. Have fun running your weekly defrays and updating your antivirus software. :)

  • @cockyjeremy

    Haha, like I have antivirus software. Why don't I have one? Because I'm not a fucking retard that installs random shit and downloads linkin park - crawling in my skin.mp3.exe off of limewire.

    Durrhurrr.

    Are you sure you just haven't used 1 PC for 15 years, then all of a sudden, you were like "I WANT A NEW COMPUTER, OMG THIS MAC IS SO MUCH FASTER THAN MY 15 YEAR OLD PC".

  • @austin1119 I had many PC's. They all sucked ass. They were doomed to suck before i ever turned them on. Why? They didn't have OS X/Linux. And OMG LOLZ.. go download an antivirus/malware software. Bet you have plenty of it. Guess what, while you're worrying over every link and if you should worry about it or not, i can download whatever the fuck i want with no worries. To the point of purposely downloading a virus with no negative impact.

  • @cockyjeremy

    LOL, worrying about every link? HA, I'm not retarded enough to have to worry about a link, when I see something suspiciously odd, I know it's something weird. So I don't download it, and no, I don't have any viruses and even if I do get viruses regularly, Microsoft has a nice little program called "Microsoft Security Essentials" that would do a great job protecting my computer. And it's not that hard to remove viruses, in fact, it's one of the easiest things I've ever done.

  • @austin1119 Funny. Apple has this thing called a rock solid OS, that doesn't require a "security essentials" program to keep me safe. Funny how that works.

  • @cockyjeremy

    And I didn't even need an antivirus to remove any viruses I've gotten when I was just fucking 14 years old. I could remove a virus in 5-10 minutes because

    1. I'm not DURRHURRTARDED

    2. I know what I'm doing.

    3. I can customize as much as I want, because it's Windows.

    Enjoying your inferior Unix command prompt that you probably have no idea how to use?

  • @austin1119 You act like i can't customize OS X.

  • @cockyjeremy

    Not as much as you can customize Windows.

  • @austin1119 You've obviously never used a Mac. I can pretty much customize whatever i want on OS X. Most of us just don't because.. well, it's nice as fuck the way it is.

  • @cockyjeremy

    Yeah, changing your background and rearranging your icons is great!

  • @austin1119 I suppose it is. What's that have to do with anything?

  • @cockyjeremy

    What, isn't that pretty much what you can do with OS X?

  • @austin1119 Not even close. But at least you're admitting you're ignorance about customizing OS X. You can change a lot. Customize the way Safari looks, Finder, Menubar, iTunes.. pretty much any app or part of the OS itself.

  • @cockyjeremy

    Oh really? Because I can do all that AND more.

    Windows can do everything a Mac can do, and it doesn't cost 5X more. The speed? Windows is much faster. The specs, you can get a lot more for the price of one Mac that beats it. The brand? Ooooh, Apple -Built with Foxconn parts-. Viruses? Sorry, I'm not RETURRDDURRED.

  • @austin1119 I never said that was all you could customize, first of all. Just examples. And no, a windows computer is not faster. Not even close. Like i said before, a Mac can run windows faster than a pc. Even one that has higher specs. This has been proven before. A website tested 30 computers with windows, all with similar specs. Which one ran windows fastest? The Mac. You're right.. you do get more with a pc. More clutter. Spamware out the ass. Boot up, boom, 500 pieces of spam software.

  • @austin1119 By the way, there is no such thing as "Foxconn parts". They simply take the parts Apple orders and assembles them. Also, Apple uses nothing but the highest quality parts. How many PC's are a unibody frame made of aluminum? I'd guess not many at all. Most are plastic junk. Apple computers aren't that expensive. In an iMac, the screen alone is almost $1000, so $2000 isn't bad at all. And don't even get started on customer service Apple vs PC vendors. Not even remotely close.

  • @cockyjeremy

    You're kidding, right? Quality parts? HAHAAAAA. They use the same parts as PCs do except it's changed a bit here and there so it can "accept" the limited Mac OS.

    Processor = Doesn't count, it's Intel.

    Motherboard = Foxconn

    HDD = Hitatchi DEATHSTAR -deskstar-, named Deathstar for it's complete failures it's had.

    SSD = OLD OLD OLDDD Toshiba/samsung/intel, FIRST GEN SSDs, not even the latest SSDs, these are the 50$ ones you can find with slow ass speeds.

    Ram = noidea really.

  • @cockyjeremy

    Oh wait, scratch that 200$ Ultraportable with Aluminum, that one is plastic, still thinner than the Macbook air and only at 200$ though.

    BUT, this is the one Asus is making to be released this year, better specs, Aluminum, and guess what, costs under 1000$.

    watch?v=fBxT6IzcHV0

  • @cockyjeremy

    I'm on a streak today, let's see if you can comeback.

    apple customer service? HAHAHHAHA you realize apple computers are starting to get viruses and the apple geniuses have been instructed to ignore all help requests dealing with these viruses because it ruins the "macs dont get viruses" image. Woo, Apple customer care is the greatest!

    Also, if I broke a screen on a Windows laptop in warranty, I bet they would replace it, if I did it on a mac, oh , how much would that cost? 100$?

  • @austin1119

    OH, AND ANOTHER THING.

    Asus has an ultraportable, made with aluminum, more thinner than the Macbook Air, "better" design and guess how much it costs.

    200$, and it comes with Linux. You can install WIndows 7 on it if you want, but Linux > OS X.

  • @cockyjeremy

    The GPU, get this, ISN'T EVEN DEDICATED.

    The GPU *Their Radeon* is built into the motherboard, which is what causes the motherboard to heat up like a motherfucker which is that heating issue people complain about.

  • @cockyjeremy

    AND ONE MORE THING! I have never seen a company lie more than Apple has, honestly, I haven't.

  • (cont.)

    The whole point of this is that I think you are overreacting to an advertisement, and that you need to realize that every company, YES, EVEN APPLE, produces shit like this. So yeah. Go ahead and stop being a slave to Apple and fuck off.

    Thank you for your time.

  • @krabcheesewonton76 A slave to Apple? Oh yeah.. Apple just makes me buy their shit, right? It has nothing to do with the fact their shit functions how it should. Typical of Winblows idiots.

  • @cockyjeremy Did you even read my whole comment? If you were bashing Macs because they sucked (which is subjective), I would still call you an idiot. So Apple is allowed to talk crap about PCs in their commercials, but Microsoft isn't allowed to talk crap about Macs? That's fair. Setting aside your clear talent of coming up with semi-clever ways to turn a corporation's name into a sexual joke, I'm sorry for calling you a slave. I feel like "OCD fanboy" is a better description for you, good sir.

  • (cont.)

    He has taken an advertisement that has "Bullshit" written all over it, and picked it apart for us. But seriously, dude. You are making a big fuss over something that every major corporation in the world has done at least once: a TV ad. Don't get me wrong: I think that Apple makes great products. I think the same thing goes for Microsoft. However, they are both going to make ads that overrate their product and make it look like the best thing ever and try to trash out the competition.

  • (cont.)

    That's not a good way to get people to buy your product, now is it? Besides, its not like Apple hasn't advertised biased crap before either. The Mac vs. PC ads? Those were crap. Having used both a PC and a Mac extensively before, I could lay out pros and cons for both of the computers. Obviously I'm not going to do that, because that's not my point. My point here is that our friend cockyjeremy has taken things out of proportion.

  • First of all, I don't have any videos on my channel, so go ahead and judge me all you want. Secondly, people! Jesus. Fucking. Christ. These Laptop Hunter videos are something known as "advertising". Yeah, Microsoft is going to release advertisements like this that talk crap about how their computers are "amazing." Well obviously. I have yet to see a company that releases an advertisement that intentionally says, "Our product is a piece of shit."

  • These commercial are absolutely stupid - a typical clueless MSFT marketing defensive stupidity. Having said this, about two weeks ago I was given a MBP 15" as a gift and absolutely hate everything about. It should be so easy for MSFT to completely destroy the garbage that Apple puts out (FN+Delete for DELETE, CMD/FN/CTRL+4 to copy screen, limited driver support - Canon 4370 DN printer, etc, etc.), but MSFT remains clueless. I am going to get a Sony Z series - I had it before and it was great!

  • "Why would you pay, twice the price?" Because Macs are much better than PCs that's why!

  • How can you spend your time defending a brand, are you the owner of apple? Do you have stocks on it? I mean Laptops Hunters ads sucks, and I really love apple products but I'm not a fanboy, with all due respect, why are you doing this video? If people wants to believe the shit of Laptop Hunters... well let them believe it. I really don't understand why the applefanboys react like this...

    Greetings

  • @rpmillenium So uhh.. you're basically saying you agree with me, but you don't make videos, so i shouldn't either. That's some logic.

  • *Continued*

    I started dating a guy with a Mac, and I thought he was a dork for it- that was, until I used it... and BOOM, my life became simpler. Everything... just worked. Nothing was slow, I could have multiple things open at once and everyday things such as file sharing, internet and word processing was just awesome.

    Everyone who is bashing Macs, stop looking at the specs and just try the freaking thing as it is! You'll be pleasantly surprised.

  • *Continued*

    I am a 100% satisfied customer with my Mac. I was a music major for five years and our department had nothing but Macs. I hated them. Absolutely hated them. Why? Because I was ignorant and did not want to try and use them. I thought for the longest time they were incapable of right-click when in fact they are, and other stupid things I was just to blind to see otherwise.

  • *Continued*

    I have had my MacBook for over a year now and my life has been so simple since! It doesn't take forever for my computer to boot up, it rarely freezes and I am able to do everything on this computer that I ever intended on doing. In fact, just bought an iMac about a month ago, which is awesome as well. Not big into computer gaming- it seems like that's the biggest flaw people give a Mac... weird, because last time I checked, most people bought consoles for gaming?

  • Jeremy,

    I'm so sorry you've dealt with such jerks. I posted a while ago about how I was so happy with my switch from a Dell to a MacBook. I thought about this video and thought I'd visit, and truthfully, it's upsetting that there are so many stubborn people stuck on PC.

    I thought I would add I am not a techie. I don't know the in-depth specs of my Mac and I didn't know the specs of my PC. All I know is I bought the basic form of both, the RAM and the Hard drive size.

  • i would like to say that for 1600 you can get a macbook pro with 4 gigs of ddr3, a 2.53ghz prcessor and a 250 gig hard drive. even though the it has 250 less hard drive space, the macbook makes up for it by having bluetooth, a solid aluminum body, a multi_touch trackpad (that actually works unlike the ones in some windows computers) and all of the macs come with ilife. so the mac is deff the better buy

  • "people who know nothing about computers"?

    who said everyone's supposed to know everything about computers?

    quality is defined as customers matched expectation and these commercials are showing that PCs are being able to do that.

    well I got lured by all those apple commercials and brand image and got a mac

    It sucks, definitely slower than my other laptop, heavier, lower battery life, and not to mention the compatibility

    well It looks good on my desk LOL

  • I'm thinking you didn't really buy a Mac, because if you did, it probably wouldn't run slower, and I don't see that happening with the battery life. That, or you had one very uncommonly awesome Windows computer.

  • the point of these commercials i think were to lure in the people who know nothing about computers by using words like fast a processor and a big screen. all what the less technically gifted people hear is big and fast so they buy it argue with me if you want but i'm just saying my opinion

  • Well, yeah. Only people that know nothing about computers buy Windows machines anyway. lol. The commercials are just so stupid. Its funny. Like the girl that had a $1000 budget, yet they drive to Best Buy in an Ashton Martin. Haha. I bet shes strapped for cash!

  • @tman15555

    @cockjeremy

    Like Apple does?

    Apple lies WAY more than microsoft, if you haven't noticed. Unless you're a complete moron that is...

  • And I wont get into the fact that your intolerant hatred of Vista isn't based on fact or experience but just an irrational prejudice. I have vista on my netbook and it runs fine, no complaints. And I bet all that 'research' you did on the XPS was totally randomly selected and sampled from all those "uh.. reviews from uh... tech websites that uh... reviewed this uh... laptop".

    "Do programs fast? Who wrote that shit?" - No one wrote it. Its unscripted. Asshole.

  • Because youd know why i hate Vista, right? Yeah, didnt think so. Unscripted? Hhahah. Youre a complete idiot if you think that. Every single word they say is scripted. Watch the first one, the original before they re-edited it. She walks in the Mac store and then as she walks back out, the guy that was walking past when she went in is STILL walking past. Completely scripted. 100% Moron.

  • Oh yeah, thats some really infallible proof you've offered their. Of course, why didn't I realise, that is incontrovertible, its on the list of things that proves and add is scripted. Oh and that's funny, I could swear I wrote 2 comments? Didn't want to address any of my other points? Oo yeah, that's integrity for you. Why don't you stop making these fucking stupid bias video's. They're totally subjective and only indulge your immature, uninformed fanboy disposition. Honestly its so sad.

  • #1, i didnt delete shit. #2, if youre so stupid that you cant see these ads are extremely scripted, as well as totally wrong and misleading, you arent worth the time of arguing with. You actually think Microsoft gave them money and just said, Tell us what you really think, buy the Mac if you want.. we dont mind just say whatever feels right! You are a complete and utter moron. Go waste someone elses time. Idiot.

  • "life without balls"

  • CockyJeremy, I agree! What is Microsoft trying to do? I love the general assumption the girl makes with It seems like you are paying a lot for the brand.

  • Exactly. What youre paying for is a product that Fing works. And amazing customer service for the few Macs that do have problems. I had an Apple rep help me, and dealt with AT&T for me for 2 hours over my MMS. Try getting that with Dell or HP or some shit. NOT happening. The guy personally called AT&T.. first lady didnt help at all, so he called again until they fixed it.

  • You say you can get an old G5 and leopard runs fine. Well thats true.

    Apple discontinued the power mac G5 August 7 2006. Snow leopard is Intel only. Only Apple would completely obsolete a $3000 machine almost exactly 3 years after they sold it. WOOOO go Apple, thanks for turning my machine into a paper weight. Great customer service.

  • How is a G5 obsolete if it runs Leopard? Leopard is perfectly fine.

  • Macs are shit, they freeze far more than PCs but Apple is not stupid enough to let that be know to the public, what happens? we see this annoying little icon going in circles then what? we need to exterminate And Macs are only for people who only look at pictures and edits videos LOL which not a very large need in the industrial worlds

  • You're a total idiot. Freeze more than PC's? Riiiiiight. You're one of those, "i can't afford it, so it sucks" kids, huh? Get a clue. Windows sucks cock. Guess what your shitty Windows commercials are made on? Macs. Wonder why.

  • No, I have LINUX. Ever heard of that?

  • Why does it matter to you? You bought your Mac, you're happy with your Mac.. Get over it?

  • What exactly do you want me to get over?

  • maybe what Macs can do, maybe make a video showing how macs are better. Maybe tell people why Macs are better not just bashing at PCs we can all do that, but dont worry, the weaker the dog the louder it barks aka you. On and thanks to you buddy, you dont really have 1500 for a Mac, so what you do? Go get a credit card! thanks a lot for this debt!

  • You're completely worthless, just go away.

  • 1. Not all laptops are portable: my 17" gaming laptop wasnt portable and i never took it anywhere, weighed too much.

    2. what is Do programs fast: have you talked to teh general public about computers before? cause this is how they talk.

    3. I dont know where you got 2.53Ghz from, but i know a couple people with that laptop and it was ~$800. 2.0-2.3Ghz, 4GB ~320GB.

    Externals arent very portable.

    As far as power to run vista, any dual core and 2GB is plenty to run it. it avg. 3.5hrs batt.

  • If you bought a laptop that's NOT portable, you bought the wrong shit. 2, I've never heard anyone say "do" programs fast.. never. 3, i got it straight from the manufacturers web site. As far as battery.. you get 3.5 hours.. plugged in.

  • "If you bought a laptop that's NOT portable, you bought the wrong shit."

    you may remember hearing this somewhere:

    "Its a laptop. They're all portable."

    "do programs fast" is wrong terminology but how often do average people use correct computer terminology. These ads are geared towards average people with little computer knowledge, like the Im a Mac adds were.

    and the laptop is a dell studio xps 13, i bought one for <1k. @ best buy on sale 4 the sister. it gets ~4 hours on the battery.

  • They ARE all portable. I've never heard anyone say "do" programs fast..never. If you pay anything for a computer with Windows on it, you're getting overcharged. And sorry, i don't believe anything over 2.5 hours. I've read too many things about that laptop from tech sites that tested it.

  • so wait im confused...are all laptops portable or not?

    I know 2 people with that laptop, who both got it for under 1k, and it deff gets at least 4 hours.

    And im pretty sure I didnt get ripped off on my windows laptop, $650. 2.1Ghz C2d/4GB/300GB. does more than i need. compare that to the $1k macbook and it really isnt a comparison. as far as price goes pc has the edge.

  • Yes, they're all portable. If you got a laptop that isn't portable, you bought a desktop. If you pay anything for a Windows machine you're getting ripped off. Sure, when it comes to price the PC gets the edge. The dollar menu at Wendys cheaper than going to Logans, but it certainly isn't better. The PC Vs Mac argument is basically Cost Vs Quality. People can pick crap if they want, but i'll pick a quality computer with a nice design and amazing software over cheap EVERY single time.

  • Not all laptops are meant to be portable in the fact that you can take them anywhere with you. Most gaming laptops are meant for home use as a desktop replacement to save space (the same way an iMac is an All-In-One that uses laptop parts) or for taking to LAN parties.

  • Thank you Jeremy! I run six XP PC's at my business and I am replacing every one of them with a mac as soon as I can afford to. I have a 5 year old G5 tower at home and it out performs all of the XP's.

    The PC's constantly hang up, and freak out. I spend hours every defragging, delousing, and upgrading drivers and programs. Constant network problems.

    I go any where with my mac laptop, my wifi is up and running in seconds. My brothers PC gaming laptop takes alot longer, No Comparison, Mac is king.

  • I should know you have no perspective on the issue whatsoever... after all, what else would I expect who has BRANDED himself for life with the fuckin' Apple logo?! I used to like Apple, I used to hate Dell. I even owned an ipod and was planning on getting a Mac Mini. What happened? Apple pissed me off. I hope they do the same thing to you and you find yourself scratching like crazy trying to get that thing off your leg only to realize it's stuck there for life.

  • Why overclock, add RAM, install that awesome new video card, add hard drive space, etc... ?

    Simple. It's not because I have to, it's because I can.

  • You need to. To make up for your shitty, oversized, bogged down Windows OS.

  • Wow wow, when you say Windows OS, do you mean all of them? Windows Vista, yeah it was slow at first, but it got updates, so now it runs pretty good, even on slower pc's, and I've never gotten a BSOD with Vista yet, most of the time people get BSOD's from hardware failures, not from the OS, actually I'm pretty tired of people (most mac owners) saying that Vista sucks, yeah it sucked at release, but Microsoft fixed all the errors with SP1, it seems like you mac fans ignore the truth

  • Macs are over priced pieces of tin.

  • Actually.. no. You get what you pay for. If you want cheap, expect/receive crap. You'd know all about that, as a Windows fan. It's ok though. You choose to be uneducated. That's your choice. Enjoy your plastic junkbox.

  • honestly I've dealt with enough people like you to know that there is no point in me even wasting my breath. You clearly have no idea what computer hardware is all about, since you've never built or worked on a computer.

    Yeah, I'll stick with my 8gb, 4.0Ghz desktop, running an nvidia GTX260 video card. Oh! and not to mention the fact that I can get 1tb drives for my pc for under $100.

  • I've built plenty of computers. You totally overestimate the Hardware Vs OS part of the equation. The OS is much more important than specs. And i'll take my Core 2 Duo 2.93GHz iMac with 4, soon to be 8GB of DDR3 over any Windows Machine, ANY day. Hard drive storage is pointless to argue. You can buy external HDD's and huge flash drives for cheap as shit for either system.

  • If you built machines then you would know, that the speeds of external usb/firewire storage, that your stuck with on the macs, cannot compete with the speed of internal sata, and not to mention that you can add esata for external on a pc.

  • Also you seem to be forgetting about the application, vs hardware. Since it's where the applications is where hardware really counts not the os. For example how the macs are severely lacking in proper GPU's for 3d modeling. Last I checked the best card offered standard on the macs is a GT130. Which is just about the lowest end dedicated graphics card you can get with a new computer.

  • So say your running autodesk maya, it's not going to care what OS your running, but it does care about your GPU. It's going to run slow if you have a slow gpu, regardless of what OS your running. Your overestimating OSX.

  • Ugg, I had to split that up into three comments to actually fit that all, but whatever.

  • You can upgrade your graphics card in a Mac, and Snow Leopard is going to increase performance dramatically.

  • Obviously external storage isn't as fast.. but you can use it for rarely used things and buy an internal SSD on your Mac.

  • You're off base.

    I OWN the Dell Studio XPS 13, so I can say honestly that you're incorrect on several things.

    The Dell has MUCH more powerful graphics, and the memory is NOT shared like it is on the Mac. The 500 GB hard drive is built in. I don't need something dangling off my laptop.

    Oh yeah, and I honestly did get mine for around $750!

  • And you still have Winblows... FAIL.

  • Can you overclock a Mac? Can a Mac game? Can you do SLI? Crossfire? Even get a decent graphics board?

    I didn't think so!

    EPIC MEGAFAIL!

    Just so you know, I might use Windows, but it's been perfectly reliable and it works for me, so there. I'd rather use what works for me than be a pretentious Ap-Crap using bastard like you anyday.

  • Can you overclock a Mac? I'm sure you can, but unlike Windows computers, i don't need to overclock my Mac. You can get upgraded graphics cards in Macs, and Snow Leopard is going to increase that dramatically.. gaming? Yes, not that i give a shit about gaming. But once Onlive is released, which is soon, gaming is going to be a 100% moot point. You'll be able to game on any computer or tv, with any graphics with zero lag. PC gaming is overrated as hell anyway, though.

  • macs are shit and YOU KNOW it

    With Macs, is what you get.

    at 1000 dollars, you can very well make a pc three times better than that shitty macs. Pcs are winning, Youre just a sore loser! Btw, I am using Linux so have a nice try finding errors for it. Macs are just a pathetic excuse to intro people to linux.

  • I give up on you idiots. Better specs don't necessarily mean faster speeds. Linux is worthless. There isn't much of anything for it. Windows might suck, but at least it has a lot of programs. Linux is stable, yes. Linux is basically if Windows and OS X had a retarded baby.

  • @SirEncyTheWray Does Microsoft properly support Java? Is it built with security in mind? Does the OS take less than 15 gigabytes? Can you fully uninstall IE? Can you prevent attackers from controlling your PC through ActiveX? Can Microsoft support any standard without completely breaking it first?

    Didn't think so.

  • mac its for professional use mostly.....

    try playing most games on a mac.... without having to use another weird program...

    and windows its more for normal people haha

    mac doesnt have right click omgad Dx

  • Nice one, Goodwill shopper.

  • i favourited this because this guy is talkin bullshit and ill get around to make a video response...

  • You do that. Funny that these commercials have such financially strapped people that they can only afford $1700 for a computer.. while they drive their Ashton Martin to Best Buy to go pick it up. Details, details, details.. Microsoft is always missing those pesky little fuckers.

  • why does everybody think everyone wants a mac? i have one (not my main computer, thank god) and theres nothing special about it.

  • Because anyone with common sense that isn't cheap DOES want/have one.

  • Hey!!! This guy is board of Apple?

    If not... he's too crazy about mac.

  • "Pure bullshit" - my thought was EXACT when I saw this so-called advertisement.

  • now the macbook (wich is now pro) cost also less than what you said and it as better overall performance! I Love my mac and i'll never switch back!

  • ya, Vista is garbage! 5:03 is completely true! I wish everyone knew that!

  • you should make another, with the new lower prices and better batteries and faster processors on the MacBook Pro and MacBook! Great Vid!

  • You ROCK!

  • microsoft cant show like 60% of the commercials anymore because there false

  • Yup.. oh well. Morons. lol.

  • lol It's funny how these people have an Aston Martin and only have $1700 for a computer

  • LOLOL.

  • Couldn't agree more!

  • battery life more or less comes down to your to what kind of hard drive you have and its speed. I changed the hdd in my HP to a 250GB SSD. It more than doubled my battery life. I can spend half a day in class and the library and never have to worry about charging.

  • Just be happy with you computer and what brand you choose. macs arent better then pcs and pcs arent better then macs. Its called OPINION!!! get it through your heads ( That was ment for people who always say one is better then the other) saying something is better then the other is like saying blue is better then red or chocolate is better then vanilla ice cream. Be happy with your computer and stop saying that one brand is better then the other.

  • lol. Are you the Martin Luther King of computers? Sorry, but not all computers are built equally. OS X is better than Windows in every way. The ONLY thing Windows has over OS X is gaming.. and that comes to an end in November when Onlive launches and you can game on ANY computer/tv with no lag at all (depending on your connection) OS X is much more stable, much more secure, has better apps and needs much less maintenance.

  • Well like I said, your opinion. I have used a mac before (lots of times ) and I personally don't like it. O like vista much better and can't wait for win 7. Listen I am not trying to insult you I am just saying that what you are saying is an opinion. Not everyone likes os x and not everyone likes windows

  • How are facts about security and stability opinions?

  • That may be true about mac os x being more secure but I don't download unkown files or go on websites that give viruses. But still I like windows better then mac osx, And msot people who get viruses are people who download loads of pron from unkown websites

  • LOL. You're kidding, right? I guarantee you, if you browse ANY sites, you've got Malware and Adware on your PC. I don't care what anti-virus you use.. it's there. Guess who doesn't have any of that? Me and my Mac that is "the same" as Windows.. ;x

  • Well your guarntee was wrong because I never has walware or adware before by going on ANY site(s). I use norton 360 2009 and it works great. I havent got a single virus or malware or spyware etc ever in my computer. If I download a file that has a virus firefox scans it first and if it misses anything then norton 360 can prevent it from going in my computeer and it deletes it

  • LOL. You use Norton? The worst of the worst. Ok.. i'll let you in on a little secret. You HAVE malware and adware.. your anti-virus just sucks too much to notice that. lol.

  • I bet if I said I had something like avg or something like that you would say its the worst. If I have malware or add ware then how come the computer isnt slower? and how come I don't get any pop ups?

  • You do know that Macs are much easier to hack and manipulate than PCs with Windows XP or Vista, right? It's simply because there is no market that it isn't so mainstream. Because Windows users outnumber OS X users 9 or so to 1, it is more common to see malware on PCs.

  • And no, only an ignorant fool like you thinks "if you browse ANY sites, you've got Malware and Adware". You don't have to put down others to justify your waste of money. Anyone with common sense can avoid viruses. Simply speaking, PCs aren't for you.

  • Exactly.  It's easy to tell that Macs are geared toward morons and people who can't use a computer for crap.

    And in regards to the creator, if you read Gizmodo, a very, very reputable tech blog, you'd see that these ads are actually hurting Apple's sales, to the point where they even called MS and asked them to stop showing the commercials.

  • I'm not sure how correct your information is. It sounds like it may have gotten the old media spin. The numbers tell the truth. Apple just reported having the best non-holiday quarter in it's history while Microsoft's 2009 fiscal year has seen it's first decline of profit in it's history.

  • These ads are hurting sales, are you kidding? Apple Claims 91% of $1,000+ PC Market Revenue in June, Apple Reports $1.23 Billion Profit for Q3 2009, Apple also posted revenue of $8.34 billion. Apple seems to be doing fine.

  • Hurting sales.. buhaha. Exactly! That's why they had their biggest non-holiday quarter in history, right? That's why they had 91% of PC sales over $1000, right? That's why Microsoft had it's worst quarter in history at the same time.. right? Please.

  • Bullshit. Go try several anti-virus programs.. i guarantee each one fights shit your anti-virus missed.

  • Nope. You see, only dumbasses like you would get viruses on a PC, thus why you're better off with a Mac.

  • You use Winblows and I'm the dumb ass? lol. Sure thing, captain cheap fuck. Go buy a quality Mac and then you'll see how stupid you are for defending such a shitty OS and company.

  • I personally don't care about Windows or Mac, in fact, Linux is more secure than both (and it's freeP). What bothers me is elitist morons like you who think they're the shit because they can pay an extra $1000 for shit software.

  • mac its for nerd who likes to edit shit

    no right click....try using windows programs on a mac without another program LOL

    windows its more finger friendly :O

    and yeah vista is garbage

    GOGO WINDOWS 7 i might wait a little longer i have windows xp with webroot :) with a skin of windows 7 and my computer cost me like 800 just bought more memory and the best video card i could find max 1000

    i love my computer

    macs are weirdddddddddd

  • What are you talking about? You can right-click on a Mac.. and you don't have to install anything to put Windows on a Mac.. Boot Camp is all you need, and it comes on all Macs. Macs are much more stable and secure.. and regardlessof specs, faster. Did you know a Mac can run Windows faster than a Windows machine? :)

  • Ummm... You can buy external hard drives for PCs too...

  • Ummm.. no shit.

  • Then you have a totally null point on hard drive space.

  • No. I was saying.. if the lack of size on the MacBook hard drive matters.. there's a cheap way to make up for it. The point is exactly what i meant it to be.

  • Well if your carrying around a 1TB external drive, there goes your portability.

  • Considering most people that carry laptops use bags of some sort to carry them in, it really makes no difference at all.

  • i love how he rated the video one star haha

  • LOL. I never even realized that was on there. hahaha. If it weren't for the cute chic, I wished i could rate it a zero. :)

  • Between the irritatingly smug Mac vs PC commercials and the naive laptop hunters I'd say both campaigns are full of shit.

    I hope at least one of their marketing departments comes up with something better.

  • Well, if one side made an ad that's truthful, and the other side made an ad that's full of lies and slander, people would lead towards the one that's dishonest, wouldn't they?

  • You sound like you're implying something, but I'm not sure it has to do with my point.

    In any case... people believe what they want to believe. Sometimes it's true, sometimes not.

  • The Apple ads are almost all 100% true. They show how ridiculous Windows is.. the Microsoft ads on the other hand, are full of shit. They say "This Mac is way too expensive for this budget" yet they ignore the fact that there are cheaper MacBooks that do the same exact thing. Oh well. People are slowly switching over to Macs, and they'll never switch back. It's just a matter of time.

  • If you believe that the Apple ads hold a single shred of truth, I am sorry to say, you are delusional.

    Macs aren't more secure, they're simply targeted less due to a smaller market share. They're not more stable either, as I've heard plenty of complaints of spinning beach balls of death and kernel panics.

    And, while some of the choices in Microsoft's ads might be a bit off, I can take every single MacBook offered, and at the same price, find a better laptop running Windows Vista.

  • I was going to respond back until the "Macs aren't more secure" part. I'll just L O L and leave it at that..

  • Mac OS X was exploited in around 10 seconds at Pwn2Own 2009 through an exploit in Safari. 10 seconds. Where is your God now?

  • You do realize they already know exactly what they're going to do when they get to that event, right? It's not like they said, "Hack this Mac" and magically find an exploit in 10 seconds. Jesus Christ...

  • Does that change the fact that it happened, and that the Mac was exploited just as easily as a Windows machine? No OS is invulnerable to exploits, and it's unwise to think such.

  • I really hope you're kidding. If you have all of the time in the world to plan to do something and test it, you're going to be able to do it quickly. That in NO way means Macs are anywhere NEAR as likely to get hacked or get a virus. Don't give me that market share shit, either. There are WAY more Macs now than in the OS 9 times, but OS X gets far less viruses than OS 9 did.. why, because OS X is much more secure. I didn't say you CAN'T get hacked on a Mac, just way, way less likely.

  • And Windows viruses aren't planned and tested before they are sent to users? What I'm saying is that it's JUST AS EASY to exploit a Mac.

    The market share "shit" makes total sense. If I was a hacker, I would try to hack 90% of computer users, or 10%?

    Think what you will though, it's not like I'll ever get the chance to prove you wrong. There's no way in hell OS X would ever become as widely used as Windows. And if Macs somehow sold more than any other PCs, I assure you, you'd wish they didn't.

  • - "or 10%?"

    + "not 10%."

    Reworded halfway through.

  • Ok.. let me ask this. If you were a hacker.. would you write viruses for a system that was VERY easy to write viruses for.. or write viruses for a system that were extremely difficult to write? There's a reason why hundreds, and sometimes thousands of new Windows viruses are written DAILY as opposed to very few, total, for Macs.. and it isn't market share. Think about it. If you were a hacker.. the Mac is your key to fame.. yet hardly ANY viruses for OS X. Think about that...

  • Fame? Hackers aren't after fame, they're after botnets and personal information such as social security and credit card numbers. Think about what? A flawed argument that doesn't make any sense? We've already established OS X can be exploited, so I fail to see how doing so again leads to fame.

  • SO TRUE HAHAHAHAHAHAH

  • wm 7 is coming :)

    they wont shit mac sucks no right click and no customization there is no menu! its all white omagad

  • that's really true I thought I would be able to use the mac for some light coding and writing but the keyboard sucks copy and paste, moving files and etc all a chore on the mac, so much for superior. Both mac osx and windows have gives and takes. What I do like about macs is final cut and other software like it, but apple rolled it all up into a studio package not going to buy a studio package when I only want 1 program from it. And that +the pricing pyramid is why I dislike the mac platform.

  • I can run Windows Vista fine on my old AMD Athlon 5600+ clocked at stock settings, so I don't see why you're trying to emphasize that OS X doesn't require as powerful a processor.

    As for the DDR3 memory, it shows little to no improvement over DDR2 due to poor latencies, and DDR2-800 is fine for anyone.

    Also, why not get an external harddrive for the Dell as well? That seems more fair to me, to use the same for both. lol

  • Do you even have a clue how much smoother OS X is than any Windows version? It runs much, much better on a slower CPU than Vista does on a much faster one. I had a PC with 4GB of RAM that didn't run half as smoothly as my Mac with 4GB of RAM.. when I'm running every application i have.. while exporting a 1GB movie.

  • The better question seems to be, do you have any actual idea about how Windows Vista runs, or are you just being a troll here? :\ Because it seems like the latter.

    News of Vista's resource hogging is greatly exaggerated. I had a Mac until I recently gave it to my sister, and I have a self-built Windows PC. Both run just fine, I'm not saying Macs are bad, but PCs running Windows aren't bad either.

    And what about my question, why not an external HDD for the Dell too?

  • I think you made a bad assumption. I was a 100% Windows guy for many, many years. I talked bad about Macs and Linux. Then i tried Linux and saw how much better it was than Windows. That made me realize how pathetic Windows really was.. so i started checking out Macs and realized that OS X is nearly perfect. It's so much better than Windows that i can't comprehend anyone that isn't ignorant to what Macs are using a Windows machine. And if you want an external for the Dell.. have at it.

  • I also thought Mac OS X was better than Windows when I got my MacBook Pro, then I realized it was just another unix-like OS and no better than any other, and went back to using Solaris and Ubuntu. Why pay more for less hardware support? I like my AMD processors.

    Mainly, I went back to using Windows, and I have to say it wasn't a mistake. Windows also has support for more hardware, and is a more targeted platform for software. I don't understand why you think it's pathetic, enlighten me please.

  • To clarify, as my statement is somewhat ambiguous, I didn't mean to imply that Windows is unix-like, as it certainly isn't, but that Mac OS X is no better than Windows than any other unix-like OS (Solaris, GNU/Linux, BSD) is.

  • I gt 4gb 800mhz ram when I bought my PC lappy new for $600 NZD ;O $386.309 USD. So what you said was complete bullsack, just stay away from branded pc's aight.

  • 800MHz? lol. Wow. I hope you bought this in 2000. lol. You bought 800MHz and actually paid almost $400 for it? lol. I can buy a faster old Mac for less than that.. like 1.2GHz and 2-4GB of RAM for like $250-350
