someone should make a commercial like this in 2012. "And you'll see why 2012 won't be like '2012'."

Really? Because I could swear that I was cussing up a storm at the fact that a Mac can't even output a simple .mov file into one container, but instead has to separate it into three useless files.

I find myself cursing the iMacs at my college, more than I have ever done so to my windows based PC.

Steve Jobs bought patents from Xerox and all but copied the UNIX structure. Steve Jobs did for computers, what Google did for the internet. They both only brought together, that which was already there.

The only thing Steve could ever claim as his own was the Dock, which he came up with while heading NEXT Computers.  That's it.

Actually, I like Windows more than OSX, it's easier to use, hardly as convoluted, and customizable to a "t"

you know, it's ironic that they would use 1984 to promote macintosh. big brother keeps the party under control and apple makes the most locked up computers and devices on the market

It's funny that they grew up to manufacture the telescreens.

The difference between Apple fans and Windows fans is that Apple fans like Apple more, Windows fans just hate windows less.

This video is the personification of irony.
