Exactly. Regedit, msconfig, and services. The Holy Trinity of PCs.

It's not really a question of Hardware anymore, seeing as MAC now use Intel Core 2 procs just like PCs.

MACs and PCs are almost completely identical under the hoods now.

Proof? You can run OSX on a PC, and you can run XP on a Mac.

Nuff said.

It now just comes down to which OS you prefer. Windows or OSX.

As I've barely used a Mac since elementary school, I still think Macs are black and white.

And they ARE! Very Happy

If someone gave me a newer Mac for free with Garageband or some other sound/video editing software, I'd use it, but not under any other circumstances.
Also, I'd have to put the Mac in a separate room so my PC and laptops don't tear it apart via physical violence and torture.


RIP Hacker.

That's a common misconception. My Macs and PCs have been living in harmony for half a decade now.

I wish Apple would go back to their classic 80's-tastic logo:



The translucent apple they use now is really freaking gay. And that's saying something, since their previous logo was a rainbow.

apart from break-neck speeds when editing video/photo/music, The mac is essentially a computer for someone too fucking dumb to use an actual computer. they simplify the interface, deny access to key elements of the OS, are extremely un-customizable, and the gaming aspects of any mac system are highly sub-par, in terms of hardware and actual software availability.

Thats right. every time i see a mac, i see the same fucking blue desktop. Macs ARE just dumbed-down versions of windows. for all the retards in the world. You dont need to be a fucking computer genius to use a mouse with two buttons.

Chick: I was typing my paper and all of a sudden half my paper was gone.

Me: All of a sudden?

Chick: Yes.

Me: Like, a nanosecond happened... and half your paper was gone?

Chick: Yes.

Me: And you weren't pressing any of the keys?

Chick: Yes.

Me: When was the last time you saved your paper?

Chick: I hadn't saved it at all... I don't save until I'm finished.

Me: Right. >_> Well, did you try hitting Ctrl+Z or selecting Undo from the Edit menu?

Chick: No...

Me: Then you're officially retarded. By the power invested in me by logic and the ability to learn and read, I now pronounce you and your Mac to be happily retarded together. You may now shut your face.
