Mac VS PC

[Nubclear]

Hi Asher!

Anyway, I haven't seen a good Mac vs. PC discussion in a long time. So I thought I would start one before leaving.

As a discussion starter: Prove to me that the latest PC is better than the latest Mac.

[Tuberski]

Mac is made by Apple.


ACK!

Why are you starting a religious war?

Because I need something to view after a "wonderful" trip to the hospital which I will be going to in about....5 minutes.

I 'believe' that Macs are inheritly superior to PCs because quite simply they are much more stable, user friendly, and compatible with software and hardware than their PC counterparts and because of long-term value.

For the sake of Apolyton, this thread should be closed.

Mac users are like Linux users. It's a cult following, just look at the sales of Mac clones. Going around saying I'm a Mac user or I'm Windows free gives them a good feeling inside.

Therefore I think this thread should go the way of Communism ( ) and let's move on to more pressing matters... like football!


Go Jets!

I agree here, this isn't the time to start a war,
make , not

just wait a few days...

Hm.

Macs used to be better, and still is in some ways. Mac's OS has a better design, the 1:1 aspect ratio is an excellent idea, not to mention things such as suitcases. However, there are also some idiocies, such as the one button mouse (no, we aren't that dumb).

Linux is a cult following? That just says something about what you know.

You know, I was thinking of the one button mouse too, but I didn't mention it because I wanted my post to be neutral.

Screw neutral, attack everybody. ::maniacal laughter::

Now don't get me wrong, I'm not bashing Linux, but I say it's a cult following for this reason:

Believe or not, the majority of linux users and programmers (like the ones at my college) DON'T want to see Linux go mainstream, like Red hat or Lindows. To them, it's a hobby, like toy models.

Another reason is that I laugh when I read these sig banners that read "Windows Free" or somthing to that effect, because believe it or not, Linux has become a shadow of Windows that it was suppose to replace. I predict that within a few years, Linux would be more Windows then Windows itself, but there will need to a be a single Linux standard in order for this to work, or else making programs will be a total pain.... not to mention shopping for them.

well the problem I see is when you buy a Mac... you have to pay for everything, meaning the software... where as with a PC you can get pirated stuff a lot easier... and kazza doesn't work on Macs...
I know.. I know... copyright bs.... but a fact none the less...
However I do acknowledge the Mac is overall better than the PC its just the money... sigh... if I had a million dollars....

[Jack_www]

well I like the Mac OS way better then windows, Windows crashes damn too many times, and I really hate that. If I were not into games so much I most likely would get a mac, but if you want to play computer games you need a pc to do that.

I love love love love Macintosh for the interface and the friendliness, so much so that I'm considering making my next computer a Macintosh (as I heard that new ones are very compatible with PCs), but none of my beloved games would work on it . . . (Of course there're Macintosh versions of SimCity and the like, but I'm not sure about other things.)
