You aren't getting it are you? Microsoft made their billions DUE TO the fact they dont build computers. They started out leasing Dos to IBM when they DIDNT EVEN OWN the software yet. Thats called smart. Or should they have made their own computers and stuck to a proprietary system and hope that some guy in Seattle that drinks coffee and smells his own farts would someday pick up the Microsoft proprietary torch and let the world know that even though they dont own even 20% of the marketshare its what the "cool" kids use...Last time I checked, Microsoft didn't make computers. Again, your math is flawed, one company making one computer that uses one OS, vs. a company that makes an OS used on computers made by thousands of companies.
You are actually as dumb as you seem, at least you have that going for you.
It must be rough being so insecure about yourself, that you get upset about what type of computer someone uses. But, I can't blame you, if I were you, I'd be pretty fucking insecure too, being the lying, thieving, scammer that you are.
Btw keep on with the accusations from a man that told you to fuck off. Seems like a great road to go down. You should know first hand the person that made the accusations is, or are you overlooking what you know first hand in order to make some jabs at me? Sounds like another character flaw is appearing beyond the Mac Fanboy thing.
btw more, find one other person on the planet that has accused me of scamming them. Thats what I though.

I could care less what I have really. As long as it does what I need it to do. I'm content with my PC.Comment

response time is an overrated spec. Gamers and shitty marketing tactics have made the posted response time for PC monitors drop like a rock. I'd believe the Dell and apple response times, brightness and other specs before I'd believe even Samsung's stats.
Even if the response times of the mac monitors aren't that great... when does response time matter THAT much... in games is really all. Ever play games on a mac? your desktop doesn't need 2ms...-- QUOTE ME IT MAKES ME FEEL SPECIAL --Comment

Sure but Apple monitors are
Response time (typical)
* 16 ms
Im pretty certain the human eye can detect the diff between 16 and 2.

here's what it comes down to people.
How much is your time worth?
Apple = 0 down time this year, 0 maintenance
PC = many many hours wasted loading programs to keep it working properly and reinstalling OS's, fucking with drivers, and countless other shit. And I am plenty experienced in both PC and mac.
sure my PC cost $1k less than my mac, but if I tack on what an hour of my time is worth to the cost of the PC, I could have bought a new car with the money I could have made in those hours over the last few years of it's life.
Of course I think you need both to get all the things you need done done.
I HOPE YOU PC PEOPLE STAY TO PC'S, cause yes, the bigger market share mac's get the sooner we'll get your hackers writing viruses. If they ever breach the 25% share mark, mac users are gonna get assfucked!Last edited by gleem; 05-20-2008, 08:01 PM.

This is a good story from that fortune article posted in the comments, a typical PC bullshit problem I end up in about once a week.:
I work all day on a PC doing cad work in Rhino and on a mac doing graphics work making the catalog to sell what i make in Rhino. To day (for example) i had to print a manual in pdf form from the pc. to do that i had to go to HP and load the drivers a295 meg download. The first time i accidentally downloaded the 64 bit version which crashed my pc and required 3 restarts to clear. by the time i was done and printing 3 hours had slipped by to load the same printer on my mac i plug it in and it recognizes it picks a driver and starts to print 5 minutes later im done.
i put a ?premium? on my time and there is no savings with a 600 dollar win-tel box that does not get quickly eaten up in wasted time and i dare any win-tel user to tell me I?m wrong and they never spent the better part of a day installing some stupid hardware or new software.macs make you more productive because they just work?the value of that?Priceless?

Less people own Ferrari than Toyota. Does that make Toyata better?Umm ya cause Mac sells a 300.00 computer for 1000.00 and you mac guys but it up like strawberry icecream on a hot summer day duh.. Mac market share is under 15% tops.
Now riddle me this. A company that has been in business since well before Microsoft was doesn't even have 20% of the market.
I will drive the Ferrari any day.

They are repeating the exact same mistake with the iPhone. Sure the SDK is open but it doesn't mean shit because you can't actually put it on your own phone without their permission and you can only sell through them and they get to say if you can sell it.As much as Macheads hate MS the one person most responsible for MS's "monopoly" is Steve Jobs.
Back in the 80s Steve thought his OS was better. maybe it was maybe not not important. The thing is he COULD have made his OS available to ALL computer companies like MS did. he though that since his OS was better, by keeping it exclusive to Apple he'd sell more Apple's because people though that more highly of his OS. You'd think after 25 years later he'd learned that this is not the case. Had he really been smart not only would his OS be a MUCH higher % of the market MS might not even be around or perhaps it may have led to MS not being so complacent and build a better product. If Jobs is REALLY concerned about consumers having the BEST products he wouldn't make them so proprietary.
As an aside IBM was also as stupid as Jobs as they hired Gates to write the OS for IBM computers. They thought everyone would buy IBMs no matter what because of the name and the OS didn't really matter so they let Gates have the rights to the OS to sell to whomever he wanted. They failed to realize if companies A, B and C computers had the same OS as an IBM and they were cheaper, people would start buying computers from companies A, B and C instead of IBM.Comment
