The Batman · Jan 23, 2011

I just grabbed my roommates sony labtop with windows 7, and tried rebooting it at the same time as my mac.

MAC WON

This is the only thing I have to complain about in your post. I tried using my friend's mac. It was baffling. Yes, everything's all nice and tidy and integrated, but it's FUCKING HARD TO FIGURE OUT. Windows doesn't look as pretty, but I'll be damned if it gets any easier than hitting the "START" button and picking a program.

Thats because you've been brainwashed by windows for years. Of course its hard to get used too, your completely familiar with Windows software (that was originally a rip of an older interface that Apple created.)

HERRO? CONSPIRACY?

If mac came with a little booklet on how to get started I think I'd be fine, but I guarantee you any half-wit could figure out Windows. Honestly. You hit start. But it is true that I can't really form an unbiased opinion about it myself.

Now why are macs better?

This is where I stopped reading and disregarded your argument.
Ubuntu > Windows > Mac.

It's just fact.
When I bought this computer, I deleted a lot of shit off of it and installed a free AVG antivirus pack and a free Zonealarm firewall.
I've not had a problem for 2 years.
Macs are simple, sure, but you don't even get what you pay for. Like my picture proved, you get more shit with less money than you'd spend on a mac, if you buy a pc.

2300. BONE STOCK.
2.53GHz Intel Core i5
4GB 1066MHz DDR3 SDRAM - 2X2GB

SuperDrive 8x (DVD±R DL/DVD±RW/CD-RW)
MacBook Pro 17-inch Hi-Resolution Glossy Widescreen Display

Now, I'll find a similarly priced Toshiba laptop.

There's too much stuff to even post here, just click the link.
It was hard to find honestly and still doesn't cost as much.

They own Apple stock. Not a 1/3 OF Apple.

But why is that even relevant? How does that effect the quality of software and the machines they run on? You just stated a pointless fact that doesn't effect the argument.

So no, you lose. Please try again (Insert 25 cents for 2 more lives)

Windows copys Mac, and Linux is similar to Mac OS, but without the compatible interface. I cant do half the crap I do on Mac OS with Ubunt. So no.

Unless you can find an editing software as good as FCP or vegas for ubuntu, then ubuntu is garbage to me. people just use it to be rebels, that's the way i see it.

Want to know what I like about Macs? How they leave them on in the Apple store. Me and like 3 friends set the internet to monsquaz or meatspin and just leave

What the hell does this mean? Haha, is it some type of virus setting or something? I know nothing about computers.

Rob. · Jan 23, 2011

Quality is an opinion, however I was using facts, WHILE KEEPING $300 bucks, you get more stuff on a toshiba than a crapple computer.

Thats the point of this thread? Its a good argument.

And rob, toshiba and macs are the same thing. They are both PC's, Personal Computers. Its not even an argument. Even if the thing is $300 less then a mac, the software that comes with it is still way better.

Thats why you don't understand, software is what makes the computer a beast. And ubuntu is no where near as good as Mac OS. Sorry, that's a FACT.

just like a mac user. have you done ANY research before making that (excuse me) idiotic statement. any comp nerd knows that you are now an idiot. atleast, in the OS sense.

youre obsolete. you have been for years. only reason your around is stupid fanboys with no good fucking reason.

do you design things? do you edit photos that are 8 mb in size or larger? do you create special effects? then yes, mac.

do you do most of that, run without a hitch, run simply, better, faster and on less. COST LESS, and have a better selection of help? then yes ubuntu

are you clueless and or dont give 2 craps about what you have and have no intention of trying to be a decent computer? then yes, windows.

do some research, then come back to me.

idiots at mac think the android OS is dead tech. dolts. ipad is NOT a mother flippen laptop, and the android OS rapes everything your stupid worthless iphone has ever come close to attempting.

i. rant.

Rob. · Jan 23, 2011

Brock The hell does that mean? Just wondering.

Toshiba has no affiliation with apple at all?

Airplanes, windows is alright for the majority of people, ubuntu is ... best for all, i admit, but im sure we can agree mac is worse of all 3?
