dang you got this one perfectly.

Though I did once get someone to switch after acting like them :D

I have twice as many PCs as I do macs, but there are 2 reasons I like macs:

1. When you use them they don't keep telling you things (windows xp does this lol.. but it can be configured to stop!)... except in our school's lab, wehere every time you log in you get the windows 2000 introduction thingy
2. When you go to a lab, you don't have to wait (though most labs still use OS 9).

I dunno what to say, mac os x IS unix based so I get all the fun when I'm working on programs and such :)

*shrug* I still have PCs tho, just for the fun of it.

Personnally I think the whole mac vs pc debate is for anyone who really has nothing better to do.

Macs don't suck. They're just different, and that scares people. I started on an Apple IIe (which I still use), moved to a performa 630, got a mac laptop (don't remember the model), and then got my first PC. Even though the PC was over "twice" as fast, in terms of Mhz, it was still about the same in practice as the laptop. I then built my own PC, which more-or-less blows everything else I've ever owned away.

Anyway, in the entire time I've owned all these, I've only had to re-install MacOS from scratch once, and that was after my mom brought home a virus from work on a floppy. On the otherhand, I have done a complete fdisk/format/install of windows at least four times that I can remember, and I've only been using PCs for about 1/3 as long! Even Linux, which I now use almost exclusively, has issues, especially with old hardware. With a Mac, I know that anytime I plug something in, it will work. That's the reason why I told my grandpa to get one of the new iMacs instead of a PC. They are far simpler, more reliable, and easier to get up-and-running. Besides, iPhoto, iDVD, and iMovie are almost worth the price by themselves!

I've had a pc for about three or four years and I've never had to do anything to it except replace the motherboard. It's never given me any problems. I think it depends on how you use it.

I just bought a 17" iMac. (on it now, actually).

/me likes.

aahhhhhh!!!!! no brandon, not you!!!

Why, Mr. Kelly, it's a very nice machine. I want a PowerBook G4 for collage or an iBook G4 is one comes out soon.

/me wants ^-^

Too bad apple did away with the G4 'cubes. Those were just plain cool... an incredibly powerful Mac in an 8" cube.

/me wants a cube too.

Why the cluck would I want a dell when I just (as of 15 minutes ago) finished assembling my new baby- an Athlon XP 2200+ with 512 megs of 400mhz DDR, MSI KT4-Ultra motherboard, 40, 80, and 6 gig hard drives, Sony 2.4x DVD-RW, MSI 48x12x48 CD-RW, GeForce 4 Ti4400 w/128mb DDR, Sound Blaster Audigy Platinum w/ Inspire 5.1 speakers?

What's wrong with being different?

Almost everybody here IS different o_O (that is, from the IN crowd!)

What's the "IN" crowd ;)

those are what they refer to as well, oh, forget it, you wouldn't understand...

lemme summarize it: we're all nerds.. right?! :D

I know, I'm just being a nerd ^.^
