That is pretty funny. But I still like macs better then PCs.
I think both are fine, its just a matter of how you need your workflow to function.

The only mac commercial that has really gotten on my nerves because of its fallacies is the one where the mac dude tells the PC guy he needs to break out of the business world and do entertainment.......last time i checked PC's carry the load for computer gaming. Whenever you buy a game for Mac you KNOW its good because you played it 5 years beforehand on a PC. :nod:

The Mac commercials are childish stabs at the PC, IMO.

The only reason Apple is still strong is because of the Ipod, and the only reason the Ipod is even any popular is because people are naieve.

Unfortunately in my work environment the only mac users are the VIP's so we have to deal with it. The best is when they wonder why they cannot run some of the apps we need to use. Plus getting them to talk with a Windows/Novell/Linux/Unix environment rocks! The last vid posted is awesome.

i've never met a mac i didnt hate. my pc runs any and all software i'll ever need. and i think it's been running for about 6 months without a restart. well, maybe 3. but every mac i used had to be restarted after any graphics intense software was used because it slowed it down. And yeah, i had to upgrade my pc to run smoother, but at least i could upgrade my pc to run smoother...

Yeah, i think Windows machines surpass that "must be restarted every so often" crap if they are built to the right specs.

My tower is a couple years old now and still outruns most new cookie cutter PCs on the market, kinda sad. It also really never needs to be reset unless i want to switch OS's. I run Server 2003, XP Pro, and 2000 Pro on the desktop, and XP Media Center, XP Pro, and Ubuntu on the laptop. :gaga:

Plus since OSX switched to support for x86 chips, if you torrent an install image of OSX you can use a program to create an HSF partition and run OSX on a PC machine :nod:

Im just saying, if you NEED it for some reason.

Not that any self respecting PC person would have OSX on their machine.

Macintosh Doesnt really suck anymore. Macintosh can run MacOS Versus any Linux based Operating System and Windows OS now. Macs are good for work with sound and video editting. But as far as user friendly.... they suck. Really depends on what your more comfortable with.

I'm not a Mac fan myself. But I find their ads pretty clever/funny.

The spoofs were great. I LOLed on the last one.

This is Apple's new ad. Taking it to the web.

We have tons at work. Problem is getting the Macs to cooperate with their dumbass network technology.

Appletalk is comarable to the biggest whore on the worst corner in town.
