The new Mac ads

[The Geologist]

'eh..Macs are okay.  I prefer PC, but the department I work in uses a lot of Macs, so I kinda have to adjust and make due or else I'm stuck without a computer.  Luckily the programs I need to use are all running on a PC computer, at least for now.  But when I had to deal with friends Macs and what not I was a bit of a loss in terms of navigation and the like.  Not a huge leap, but a bit strange if you've never used one before.

You can't right click on Macs?

Nope, the mouse that macs use only have one click button.

You can always use a mouse that PC's use - with the two buttons and all - if you are uncomfortable with mice like the one above.

And that mouse is extremely old.  The ones people use now are clear and much bigger. >_<

Heheh, that's the mouse my incredibly cheap middle school used.

Advertising contract FTW.

I wouldn't mind the Macs, but both the advertising and the fanbase are snobby and arrogant. For example, the Mac ad on "entertainment". Yeah, as a PC user I can do fun stuff like spreadsheets and timesheets. And basically every video game in existence.

Yeah, pc can even play super nintendo games >_>

CAN A MAC DOO THET?

billay your sig is too tall, it shouldnt have any text, it is NINE times the size limit and it is animated.


not to mention it is really annoying.


Look at the work ad, they make pcs seem like work machines, WHO HAS ALL THE GAMES?? MAC? LINUX?
WRONG!

[Dascoo]

Linux is for work, Pc is for games, Mac is for gay.

[bja888]

Linux is for work, Pc is for games, Mac is for gay.

Minus the fact that almost no major software works on linux...

[jettlarue]

no major software??? firefox, openoffice, apache, mysql, php, the gimp, and a shitload of others...and guess what? There all free and constantly being worked on...there are thousands of games for linux, and large games like americas army and a couple other are making ports. Mac is a lot like linux since they both have unix base, but mac are a lot less reliable from my past experience.

[Toumaz]

...and large games like americas army and a couple other are making ports...

Games like Uplink, Darwinia, and probably Defcon.

Toumaz <3 Introversion Software.

[Atomic Hype]

lol @ HELL YES

[a-4-year-old]

Linux is for work, PC is for games, Mac is for gay.

PC is for procrastination at work.

First of all, clam down. Yes, I have said many times there are alternatives. You touched on less then 10% of the major software. I wouldn't even call that major software. Humm... thats odd, specifically remember changing that to say 90% in place of "no". People who fallow things blindly seem to always get hung up on details.

FUCK YES.  Even Macs have SNES emulators, beotch!
