Heh. I don't get it. Why does everyone seem to complain about Windows then when someone mentions an alternative, all you hear is "eww." I hear it just about every day in my school...

"Windows sucks"
"Yeah, so try something different"
"Like what?"
"Linux, mac, there are more..."
"What's lye-nicks? Mac's are dumb. *hits head repeatedly* I HATE WINDERS I HATE WINDERS"

So maybe I exaggerated a bit on the last part...but STILL!

So much hypocrisy...

I think it's impossible to persuade a Windows-hater away from Windows. I've shown them some awesome linux/mac screenies...they say "coooool" but when pushed to switch, they say "no" Anymore, there isn't _that_ much of a learning curve to Linux...

I guess I can understand not switching to Apple...due to the expensive hardware, but Linux is a fricking free alternative!
dang you got this one perfectly.

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

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.
