o btw, crashes are usually insificiant memory problems or flat out user-error. you keep your rig like crap, it's going to crash

it's just when i use a mac, it tends to crash when saving files, or at really inopertune times. sure PCs crash too when i use them, but 99% of the time it happens when i push them too hard (too many apps, game settings too high, etc.)

5/5 Kick ass vid!
As for all you people that complain about viri on PCs I have this to say: IDIOTS...if you get a fucking virus there is about a 99% chance it is your own damn fault. I have been a PC owner for several several years (back to win 3.1 and before) and the only virus I have EVER gotten is when my wife was downloading N64 Roms.... All you have to do is run a hard firewall, soft firewall, and a good real time anti-virus and anti-spy. Oh yeah, and the hard part, DON'T DO STUPID SHIT. Don't go around opening shit that you don't know what it is, and looking for random porn on the 'net.
I run my own small PC tech company, ( I am the only employee :) and almost every job I get is a totaly screwed up system caused by things people do to their own PCs, more often than not, its someone who just bought a new PC and didn't install their security software, they think that just because it came with it, it should be working....

Macs fucking suck, the stupid one button mouse, the way they look, and the price is crazy, the pc I am typing this on right now cost me about $1500 (over a year ago, top of the line at the time) for the same system on a mac I would have paid almost $3000!!!
Most people (in my experience) that laude the mac and shout from the roof tops steve praises, are spoiled little brat college kids that had their parents buy them the lates mac, ipod, car, and their fucking tuition they don't know shit about the real fucking world.

In summation, Macs and most Mac-Nazis are fucking losers!

I very liked that video.

I'm a programmer and I used pcs for like 18 years now, I recently used a mac G5 with 2 dual cores with OS 10 or 11... Danm it's far from being friendly and not performant vs my pc at home. MACs are way behind my 1 year old PC. And people are wondering why MACS doesnt have much virus, trojans, spywares? Just use your head (if you like MACs it will be hard to use it, anyways) Windows OS & Pcs are about 85%++ of the market, followed by linux, and the last one, MACs, WHO would bother making viruses, trojans and suchs for 2-4% computers? People making viruses and such want to contaminate the majority, otherwise, it wouldnt make sence. Who would buy a 'stylish' 23'' mac screen for 2000$ us just because theres a ugly apple on it... while I can have one 27'' with same specs for 1000$ us... come on... PC's owns mac in all aspects... Dont like microsoft? Go with linux, way more better.

As for those who knock on Windows and their viruses, let me put it this way. You only get a virus in your PC if you're careless or stupid, and nobody cares about the Mac enough to write viruses for it, because, to put it simply...virus writers believe that owning a mac is suffering enough.

As such, 51% of the crashes happen due to human stupidity. Those that aren't are caused by inadequate system specs (Most prebuit PCs skimp on RAM, GFX and Audio cards) or incompatibilities between different parts. Something that can be avoided with some thinking.

When programs crash or locks up the system, Ctrl+Alt+Del allows you to CHOOSE the problematic program to terminate. For a Mac, force-quitting a program is a russian roulette affair, sometimes you terminate the right program, sometimes you terminate the wrong program which completely fucks up the system. Also, the memory assigned to a program is FIXED, not dynamic and aiutomatically adaptive like windows programs, but fixed. And that is fucking wasteful.

You see, PC's account for the fuckups that will inevitably happen and offers some primitive form of safeguards and support. At the very least, things like system restore, scandisk, windows update et al. Macs have NO such tools pre-installed, if you want those diagnostic and repair tools, you'll need a third party, but.....fuck....wait! What support? There is hardly any Mac software store that offers such tools. And even if there is, their shite is as pricey as a fucking XBox360 a copy.

Not to mention that tech support, if any are nothing but a bunch of arrogant, pretentious fuckballs who charge 3x more to repair a say...CD-ROM drive than replacing a PC CD-RW drive and does a shitty job of it. My late iMac's CD-ROM drive died like one month after it was repaired....and I paid those sons of bitches $199 USD for it! FUCK!

I fucking hate macs, I used them and the experience is worse than being forced to use a virus-ridden Windows ME PC.

I am pretty sure that if anyone of you uses a Mac for a month straight then a good majority of you will like it and realise how much better it is than a PC computer. I use both myself. A PC at home, which I use for gaming and such, and a Mac at work, which I use for web design, photo and video editing etc. They are the ultimate professional computers available and are way more stable than PCs are.
Also, you can now get the best of both worlds and have Windows XP on the new Intel Macs (legit) using the BootCamp beta which should be officially appearing standard with the next release of MacOS (if my memory serves me correctly).

I used both PC and MAC for professionnal graphic editing AND printing... The blasted 'almighty' G5 (mac) crashed several times had so much trouble and was pretty slow vs the PC I have at home. Not to mention that the G5 had 2 dual core CPU and 2GB of ram. In the old time macs were more performant. Of course they were compared to PCs since they were comming with SCSI interface instead of IDE (then again, u had to pay the price from the apple conspiracy of suckyness). Now that they see that MACs cant run shit, they are switching to Intel CPUs for compatibility and to be much more affordable than standard mac crap. Altho, it's pointless. Your on MAC os? Need to use ONE program that runs on windows XP? Got to reboot your gay mac, run windows, do your stuff for 5-10 min with the required program, reboot on mac os whatever, do your stuff. Just pointless.

Mac users are just narrow minded and doesnt want to see the truth. Thats what I see in the compagny I work and everywhere I see a noob mac users (all of them rofl)

Let me set some of you straight on macs.
First of all alot of the stuff this guys is referring to on the Mac OS is what took place during the Apple switch from OS 9 to OS X. The first release or so of Mac OS X was very buggy, so buggy in fact that almost nothing could get done. How do I know he's talking about OS X 1.0? He' using a Quicksilver Power PC Tower and the Bondi Blue original iMac. If I am correct he recently switched from OS9 to Os X. Meaning, the new Os is buggy and practically a beta version of OS X. He obviously has no clue how to use OS X, otherwise the Dock icons wouldn't be bouncing... you can turn those off.
As far as the Blue Apple nonsense he spews the reason they reserve the space for the menu bar is the same as Windows reserving the small space for the whole "start" menu button... it's really to big.
For all you who have the belief that macs are more expnsive that that of Pc's, you're not digging into the issue deep enough.
Compare a Dell or HP Desktop/laptop to that of a mac. But be sure to make sure the specs are the same, that the bundled software with both computers is the same. Now remember that All Mac's come bundled with iLife, standard. That means, Garageband, iMovie HD, iTunes, iPhoto, iWeb, iDVD, and not to mention the newer computers come built with iSight camera's (Great quality webcams.) Photobooth, Front Row and they all have remote controls... think Media Centre... but better.
And for all of you who still believe Macs are fischer-price toys, remember that our computers don't come in flamboyant colours anymore... While WnXP has such sexy colours as green, blue, silver, yellow and red to name a few.
Apple Computers come in sleek modern shades of grey, white and black. The Blue Apple is about the only colour you can find in the windows and such.
