I can’t wait for Guitar Hero 2 on the Mac.
They got rid of the button and now there’s only a wheel!

Mac’s are fag. I’ve never tried it, but I just know, because I’m a retard

Some guy I know, which is at the same IQ level as me, said the mouse was horrible, and he didn’t manage to right click it. The reason was mainly because he managed to eat his own hand while he was masturbating his own father.

I LOVE WINDOWS FOR LIFE!

Owned and maintained a Windows box for 10 years. Only two virus hassles so far (because I know how to be appropriately paranoid regarding email attachments and hanging around at Russian porn sites etc etc). I use it to record, edit and produce music (Sony Acid, Reason, FruityLoops, Cubase) and have started using it to produce videos (Vegas, Premiere Pro, After Effects). So far so good.

Was convinced last year to spend a couple of grand on a Macbook. Spent another shitload of cash to get Logic Audio and Final Cut Pro… (this is because some mac devotee got the better of me and seduced me with bits of bullshit phrases like “industry standard” and the like.

Nevermind I probably would’ve just wasted the cash on cocaine and prostitutes…. or food. Moot point now….

I STILL use the Windows box for everything. The Macbook was IMO a pain in the arse to run and tweak; the software didn’t have any real advantages (nothing a bit of sticky tape and some creativity couldn’t fix) and I was astonished at how expensive all the various peripherals were.

In the end I installed an alarm clock program on the Mac and it sits beside my bed as the world’s most expensive alarm clock.

I always assumed that macs just used a separate internet than the rest of us, like what AOL used to provide. It never occurred to me that they were real computers so it only makes sense that they can’t get viruses.

A majority of the comments here lower the quality of this page as a whole. There is no point trying to be neutral about the whole Mac vs PC vs Linux issue by saying “they are good on different things” and simplify their pros and cons to such a level that it just isn’t true anymore. The picture of the stripped down guitar is a parody of how simple a Mac is to use. The picture is not supposed to be a valid argument why Macs are good or why Macs suck. I also find it really uninteresting whether a poster is using PC, Mac, Linux or a combination. It is like reviewing a movie featuring Denzel Washington, and at the end of the review state “I am white”. Who cares if you’re white, it doesn’t change whether your are right or wrong or worth listening to. I would also like to let you know that I wrote this rant with a pencil, then I scanned the page into a computer running Mac, Windows and Linux to make sure it would not sound biased. I also flipped coins to decide which browser to use for posting this. I’m also multiracial.

As far as I can tell the Mac vs PC argument goes like this:

Mac user:
“You know, you really should be running that software on a Mac instead of that PC.”

PC user:
“Oh really? Would it have extra features?”

Mac user:
“Er, well, no. Looks nicer though. I love Macs, me. Death to Microsoft!”

PC user:
“I wish YOU were dead.”

… Or like this:

PC user:
“Good God, why have you spent all that money on that iMac? You can’t even open it up and upgrade it and stuff.”

Mac user:
“Oh, I suppose I just wanted to… y’know… use it, really.”

PC user:
“Ha Ha look, it’s only got one mouse button… Oh, wait my tripple-overclocked-sli-atiforce graphics card has just melted. Sh#t!”

Mac user:
“You tw%t!”

It’s all a bit silly really, isn’t it?

As far as I can tell you’re all pretty disillusioned. Your OS or hardware doesn’t get you through the tasks you need to perform, your software applications do. I hate this bullsh*t, naive argument the Macs are better than PCs at photo / video / audio editing and production. Arguably the best applications in this field are produced by Avid, Digidesign, or Adobe and they support both Windows and OSX. You try telling a seasoned, prefessional Pro Tools HD3 user that they need to switch to the other platform because it’s simpler / more powerful / crashes less / has one mouse button / has fifty mouse buttons / etc. - they’ll tell you to “f*%K off, you tw#t”. Any software vendor worth its salt will produce applications for as many platforms as possible, with little or no difference in performance and absolutely no difference in functionality. For all the windows users who play the “there’s no games on the Mac” card, the main reason for this is because it’s not a trivial task to rewrite the graphics layer in a DirectX game - which a large majority are - to use OSX’s alternative, OpenGL. But again, you can hardly separate OpenGL and DirectX in performance and functionality.
