        I read that article and couldn't help but think, "man, those were the days..."

        Having an Apple changed everything. Plus they are pretty.

              My rule is if you want to sling an insult, make it good.

              That was good!

                      lol. I wish someone could be bothered targetting them again just to shut them up.. pity they want to make CNN and not apple.com.. I remember lecturing on a classroom of macs a few years ago when a bad worm was going around - it was like rapist night at the nunnery... at least pc users know how to put on a condom. my machine was auto updated hours ago.

                        What is "AV?"

                        I push the power button and it starts.

                        I plug something in and it tells me what is plugged in and ask me to choose what I would like to do.

                        It reminds me that I have a dentist appointment and if I choose to ignore it, I get a page in my phone

                        -----Nope, I don't run AV. I think some do though. But they aren't heavy.

                          What would be the point? Only 200 people's computers would crash. What's the fun in that?

                                  Maybe it's because Apple tries to stay ahead of the game. MS on the other hand likes to get a huge virus problem then send out a patch when it's too late.

                                    lol macolytes users are the worst herd followers there are, but are too vapid to realise "think different" is just clever pandering to their herd all the while they're being led by the nose so badly they can defend not having more than one mouse button for a decade. lol.

                                    I would almost get a mac except for the users.

                                      If they were ahead of the game they wouldn't have problems. Amcs are gods gift of computers so get over it. It's so fucking good they can't get over 3% market share in over 20 years of trying. Hmmmmmmmm.

                                                Some people like Jags and some like Ford Escorts.

                                                I figure you are the second.
