i hate windows, i got the new HP touchsmart, i hate it. The biggest mistake of my life that will follow me for at least five years is not have bought iMac.........
I have both a PC and a Mac. My PC is a powerful desktop model that's two years old with one game on it, and it runs like a crippled turtle. My little macbook has the CS4 suite, two browsers, and 5 different games I've put on it, and it runs just like it was out of the box, even with 4 or 5 programs running at once and listening to music at the same time.
Even the 14 year old "dinosaur" mac sitting in my kitchen still runs pretty good, no viruses or anything, and has at least 150 different games while the 5 year old PC my dad has is so overloaded with viruses that it even crashed the Norton virus protection program we had on it. Oh by the way, and Norton was originally designed to protect mac computers, not PCs. If that doesn't prove something, I don't know what will.
The hardware is pretty the same - except for BIOS/UEFI (x86-PC) vs EFI (x86-Mac) - its only a software limitation that forbids you to install Mac OS X on a common PC, equivalent (but way cheaper).
Wow someone that knows what they are talking about!
I was trying to argue the fact that Macs are just BSD and MACH underneath (both of which were not developed by the illiterate retards at Apple and are available for FREE to anyone).
I had a a heck of a time trying to argue that Mac OS X has BSD underneath to Apple's so called "engineers" in their graphics and colorsync departments...not surprising they didnt understand - crApple's employees are mostly Film Studies majors or dropouts...
Bootcamp is cute, but you can't play games on a mac with it either. I am afraid you are stuck with the puzzle thingie either way.
Bootcamp is not hardware accelerated, which all real games require...except the apple puzzle thingie of course.
Either way I like annoying the heck out of retarded people who paid $3000 for a useless mac; All you have to do is run PearPC on your Windows XP or Vista machine. :-)
Its people like M1cR0S0fT4Ev3r that really make me laugh because they have obviously never used a mac and are simply annoyed with their pc because its crashed on them, or blue screened as they have tried to post a comment. Yes macs are more expensive and the softwear is more specialist, but you can now run Windows in a window on a mac, if you really cant find the right tool, so as for them having less stuff its bs, and the fact he had to use a ton of abusive language, just proves his immaturity.
i love macs! they don't suck. every person who doesn't like macs have just never tried them. they rock!!!! i'm not saying pcs are bad, macs are just way better. anyone who reads this has to try a mac!!
name one thing that microsoft hasn't screwed up? compare the mac to ANY microsoft computer...the mac is seemingly flawless where ALL of microsofts' products are so susceptible that nothing can be done online without some infection rising up...
macs are made so any retard can use them. If you know what your doing with Microsoft then its a way better computer. Mac allways locks up. And to tell you the truth in the 3 years that iv had my xp iv never seen the blue screen of deth on it.Pc's it just ammounts to what you know.
I didn't say that I infected my computer... Microsoft is just so unreliable. Sure Mac has a game deficiency,but so? Mac's are more stable,more reliable,and more user friendly.
so things that are easy are for idiots eh? that must mean things that are hard are only for geniuses,well I'm sorry to break it to you,but your logic is very screwed up. Why must things be more difficult for them to be superior? Why take the harder way when the easier one would get the same answer/output and save time or money?
Bill Gates should sue Mac then take over them after bank ruptcy and completely demolished it from the face of the earth with a bunch of pro hackers to come up with a destroyer virus for mac. That was a sarcastic joke sorry, but I still hate mac very much.
I agree. I used to be the guy dissing on macs, I thought if you wanted to have a really good argument i should get one then i would know what to bitch about. havent turned my pc on since.
For your information, Macs do not suck for gaming. The PC (that term is very general and just means "personal computer", not necessarily a Windows machine) is only considered better for gaming because the computer game industry sees a bigger market in Windows games.
How bout the running environment of the ipod, the only mp3 that crashes at least once a month. If you ever go to a apple store its at least a hour wait to get the damn thing fixed and everyone in line is almost gaurenteed that they have been there before to get it fixed.
the mp3 that crashes every month hahahaha what a joke is that why they have the greatest market share and boast reliability figures that are the greatest per unit produced!!!
What you say is true it is the best selling mp3. But what i say is also true it crashes all the fucking time so they have to send you new ones.Any company can boast shit stats. Like geek squad, trained professionals my ass. I beleive were 1 2 1. WHat about the macs dont get viruses. Since there is only one virus for a mac the latest that i have read. Take a look at a virus writers perspective. Would you write something that will attack a computer that is more
common for everyone to have, schools, libraries most familys "the greatest sold operating system" or what would you write something that atacked few macs that are out there. When and if macs get more popular more will come about.
not as easy to write for unix based systems (linux,freebsd,osx)is the main reason they arent abundant.true,it isn't 100% but its definitely leagues above windows in security(service pack 3 is on the way!)
The point is that Apple is continuously lying about how great their product is. Well, I'm here to naysay their lies. OS X is crap. And I sure hope video on the rest of the Crapple line isn't as bad as my Mac Mini is. Macintosh machines aren't the end-all, be-all that Apple claims they are.
no-but they are the best machines inside and out you can buy,name one that's better and why it is better.explain why osx is crap.i havent had a bit of a problem with mine
the only upgrades are just like from win98 to me to 2000 to xp and all of those had to be paid for as well.thats one down.we have used the two-button mouse for years,now.that's two gone.the user interface is much better than the windoze p.o.s. plus-no viruses,adware,spyware,malware and the os is way more efficient,based on unix as are most of the internets' servers.
1. Costing upgrades are a lot more frequent when it comes to MacOS. And you've shown how little you know about Windows as well: ME and Win 2k are designed for different environments.
2. If that's the case, how come every Mac I see still uses a one-button mouse. BTW, most Windows mice have 2 buttons + a wheel which also acts as a button
1)true-mac has upgraded more often while windows just sits and waits and delays.and what's up with vista being released with a 400 dollar price tag.i was merely stating the versions of the os(windows)that i had 'upgraded' thru.2)apparently you are looking at some really old macs because i use a g4 with a microsoft two button optical mouse that has the scrolling wheel function and it all works in the macintosh
3. I disagree with the first point. I'd rather not have a menu permenantly jutting out of the top of the screen. On the second point, there is no malware on MacOS because no-one can be aresed to do it. Also, I've never downloaded a single virus even though I've used Windows for several years. Why? Because I use a little thing called "common sense".
well,i have to admit,i have never tried to move the menu away from the top(it's this way on my xp-as well)and i use exclusively the dock at the bottom of the screen to access my apps.i daily get spyware on my xp,but none on the mac
see-that's my point-no NEED to purge them in mac!and osx is way more EFFICIENT than clunky windows.and no need for those apps to get rid of/prevent all that crap
are you really that blind?the mac os is based on unix which runs most of the servers on the internet!thankfully,they are not run on windows or we'd all be waiting ten hours to watch one video on youtube.explain what happened when you used osx and it was less efficient than windows
Just in case you didn't get the last statement, I'm calling you a hypocrite. All your argument of "OMG WINDOWZ IS SLOW DURRR!" is based on is stereotypes. BTW, MacOS doesn't use a pure Unix kernel, according to Wikipedia. The kernel isn't the end all and be all of performance either.
i am CURRENTLY using both platforms:windows xp AND macintosh osx and the xp,running with actually better hardware is inherantly,slower.true osx does not incorporate a pure unix kernel but its close enough and better than the windows kernel.and since i am a windows user since 98 and mac since 04,i am not using steroetypes but personal experiance and what is reported in mags like pc world,cite:http://www*pcworld*com/article/id,120763-page,3/article*html
they pick the best os and it's not windows but it is mac osx and you still fail to relay what your personal experience is with osx.i am thinking that YOU are the hypocrite,spouting off on macintosh osx when you haven't even used it!!
do you know that you are an idiot?asshole!microsoft did NOT buy apple!how do these rumours get started?oh i know-you get your info from the national enquirer
If macs weren't so damn expensive, I'd own one. I'm sorry but I don't don't have a grand or more to plunk down for a laptop. Cute commercials though. Love Justin Long.
It's kind of sad that you have to buy a Mac used to get one. That's the point I was trying to make all along. Macs are too expensive. I didn't say anything bad about the computers themselves, just the prices. And yes, paying that much for a used computer is too much as far as I'm concerned.
well-i'd rather plunk down a few more dollars and have 0 viruses,0 spyware,0adware and 0 programs to eliminate all that crap.and the os is way more efficient than the xp that i also run
I didn't say anything about the computer or its programs! I just said it's too expensive! If Apple dropped their prices, more people would buy them. And then maybe if more people owned them, more software and games would be made for Macs that aren't now. Face it, only ten percent of computers sold are Macs. So obviously people who buy computers are more motivated by price and convenience than which operating system is better.
this is true,but i paid more for my xp tower than i did for my g4.and apple is actually 6 percent of the marketshare.and if i were to pick beteen the two as to which one to own i'd pick the mac every time.and you can get one fairly reasonable,as i have shown.
yeah-we all know windows rules with all it's viruses plus they have adware and you mac people don't get the fun of having spyware so windows is the king at getting all these so please just shut up.oh and i forgot-windows knows how to run slower than mac osx and we all know slower (like windows fanboys) is better
Firstly, First thing I have to do when I install windows, is get drivers and anti-spy/adware protection. Don't make me bring up the Media Player. DVD playback requires third party software as well. I musta had like FIVE media players AT LEAST for windows.
OSX, I've NEVER had to download extra stuff. It comes with everything I need and more, dude.
I can see why you're so insecure as to make up fibs. But I can see right through you, dude.
Bottom line for me is that shareware and freeware is first made for PC. Then, if the developers are generous, or if they care, they'll make them for macs. Who uses Windows media player when VLC player plays every format. And who's afraid of big bad viruses when AVG offers free antivirus software. If you are smart at your computer, you use PC.
You sir don't know shit about Macs. Because Windows developers aren't developing on the Mac platform, there are a number of specialist mac developers and the overall quality of the software tends to be a lot better because there's less competition but users are far far more demanding.
couldnt have said it better myself, MAC are work computers, bottom line, plus its much easier to upgrade a PC, with a MAC, your stuck with what you have right from the start.. sure its practical.. if ur a complete computer n00b

I see nothing in said article in regards to speed vs. Windows.

they pick the best os and it's not windows but it is mac osx and you still fail to relay what your personal experience is with osx.i am thinking that YOU are the hypocrite,spouting off on macintosh osx when you haven't even used it!!
well3howdy3doo 5 years ago
My personal experience with Mac OS X was mostly light use stuff for school work.
With better driver support, Linux would beat the shit out of MacOS with it's eyes shut.
FraserLow 5 years ago
but insufficient support in the applications is one of linux' inherant problems.http://www*youtube*com/watch?v=gdVMxhRJie8
but i thought we were discussing windows vs. macintosh
well3howdy3doo 5 years ago
and what was wrong with the 'light stuff for school work'?

If macs weren't so damn expensive, I'd own one. I'm sorry but I don't don't have a grand or more to plunk down for a laptop. Cute commercials though. Love Justin Long.

I'm a college student. I prefer staying in school over having the so-called coolest computer. So sue me for having priorities.
bunnylita 5 years ago
i bought my mac,a used g4,for 600 dollars.they have dropped to around 400 dollars now.if that's too much,then your school is way too expensive
well3howdy3doo 5 years ago
Yeah, it's called Duke. You may have heard of it.
bunnylita 5 years ago
yes i have heard of it but you didn't answer if 400 dollars is too expensive-and actually you can get a lower end one for 200
well3howdy3doo 5 years ago
It's kind of sad that you have to buy a Mac used to get one. That's the point I was trying to make all along. Macs are too expensive. I didn't say anything bad about the computers themselves, just the prices. And yes, paying that much for a used computer is too much as far as I'm concerned.
bunnylita 5 years ago
well-i'd rather plunk down a few more dollars and have 0 viruses,0 spyware,0adware and 0 programs to eliminate all that crap.and the os is way more efficient than the xp that i also run
well3howdy3doo 5 years ago
I didn't say anything about the computer or its programs! I just said it's too expensive! If Apple dropped their prices, more people would buy them. And then maybe if more people owned them, more software and games would be made for Macs that aren't now. Face it, only ten percent of computers sold are Macs. So obviously people who buy computers are more motivated by price and convenience than which operating system is better.
bunnylita 5 years ago
this is true,but i paid more for my xp tower than i did for my g4.and apple is actually 6 percent of the marketshare.and if i were to pick beteen the two as to which one to own i'd pick the mac every time.and you can get one fairly reasonable,as i have shown.

yeah-we all know windows rules with all it's viruses plus they have adware and you mac people don't get the fun of having spyware so windows is the king at getting all these so please just shut up.oh and i forgot-windows knows how to run slower than mac osx and we all know slower (like windows fanboys) is better

Dude, where did you hear that hoggwash?
Firstly, First thing I have to do when I install windows, is get drivers and anti-spy/adware protection. Don't make me bring up the Media Player. DVD playback requires third party software as well. I musta had like FIVE media players AT LEAST for windows.
OSX, I've NEVER had to download extra stuff. It comes with everything I need and more, dude.
I can see why you're so insecure as to make up fibs. But I can see right through you, dude.

Bottom line for me is that shareware and freeware is first made for PC. Then, if the developers are generous, or if they care, they'll make them for macs. Who uses Windows media player when VLC player plays every format. And who's afraid of big bad viruses when AVG offers free antivirus software. If you are smart at your computer, you use PC.

You sir don't know shit about Macs. Because Windows developers aren't developing on the Mac platform, there are a number of specialist mac developers and the overall quality of the software tends to be a lot better because there's less competition but users are far far more demanding.

A MAC is a type of PC technically. PC = personal computer. You mean IBM and IBM compatible.
