Switch from Mac to PC

See how a student describes her desire to switch from Mac to PC. Great piece, you will never stop laughing. I don't know who produced it, and where, but it's fantastic!

I use Mac AND PC.

Why? I like using computers. I also like taking them apart, putting them together and building them up. I also fix Macs and PCs. I am also just starting to get into Linux.

And, to those who cling to "I'm a Mac" or "I'm a PC" in an effort to hawk their preferences ... I prefer to use my tools rather than act like one.

My PC doesn't get viruses because I installed Anti-Virus software.

Morons.

See this would be a parody if it was Windows who made the "Switch from PC to Mac" commercial, while this is infact just stupid.

People use PC's all over the world and know how they work, while this is trying to tell otherwise.

PCs are not perfect and Macs are not perfect, but stop bringing stupidity like this! :/

I see it like this just buy what think is best and if you don't like it get the other one. I really don't uderstand MAC's and I don't care about them so I don't have one. if you do have MAC fine good for you, is it really that hard to except that people are different?!? besides there are andvantages to both apple and microsoft, you just can't deny that.

hmm, restarting a computer daily is a learning experience? even if that were true finding that to be a burden is just WOW... both my win7 and XP machines run for weeks without restarting..

and crashing? ugh... I have probably used a mac 1/50th as much time as I have a PC and in that time I had more crashes than all my PC time combined... then again, it was 2 years old and like all fruit, apples go bad.

@trasmethrash I generally agree, though I'd probably quibble over details. For instance, I still think it comes to users remembering out of date experiences and assuming that Windows hasn't improved and that Macs never had any problems. Take care.

[trasmethrash]

@TheAzureFish i think that many feel superior for these 3 reasons

1.- MACs are too expensive

2.- as PCs owns the 85 - 87% of the market (7-10% MAC, 4 -5%linux and 2% others), to try something new is always hard.

3.- many doesn's know the advantage of having "this OS". PC's are the king for whatever development (except openGL and python, that's linux territory) and gaming while MACs sucks there, but MACs are the king with music studios, graphic desingning and TV broadcasting... technology sucks

@trasmethrash Windows 7 is solid, dependable (I run it for weeks at a time). It blows away Macs for many uses (Photoshop screams).

Macs are also solid and no one needs to feel bad about having one. But to feel superior for having a Mac simply means one brought into the Cupertino reality distortion field.

[TheAzureFish]

@trasmethrash Again. Unless you're using Windows 7 now you're not talking about Windows OS. I started using Macs in 1984-1985. I owned one of the first Power PCs (what a steaming pile of crap). I remember when OS X launched and none of the apps I wanted to work ran. But it would be stupid for me to reference old out of date OSes and compare them to other current OSes.

Likewise, that you don't use Windows 7 is relevent to you. But let's not act like Windows 7 doesn't kick ass.

[trasmethrash]

@TheAzureFish it's useless to talk about this, is like to talk about religion so let's leave it for peace. We both have an OS (i have two) that works fine for our needs and that's what counts...... i still think that PC is a bad OS, no offense.

WINE by the way is a program designed to run windows programs without the need of emulate and it is available for linux and mac os, that's how i played.

[TheAzureFish]

@trasmethrash WTF are you talking about? Yes, if you use bloated crap like Norton you can expect trouble OR you could just use MS anti-virus protection. Windows 7 is solid and works I leave it running weeks at a time.

Do you really think anyone cares about your 4 year out of date info? What's next you going to give an original iPhone review?
