Your demeanor makes me want to kick you in the head, why is that?

[TOloseGT]

i wouldn't buy a mac, but i'd gladly use one just as i would a pc.

i like my hardware too much

People who argue over Xbox360 v PS3 and PC v Mac...... are the biggest no lifers who gives a shit about them, I can see why maybe Mac v PC could be valid because of people who work with computers and need them to be there best but other then that no shutup

[MrTwilliger]

Isn't it illegal to install OSX on a non-mac computer? If so, argument invalid. If not, who cares what other people spend their money on? More competition, especially between platforms, is a great thing for us consumers.

Yes OSX is illegal on any other system besides a MAC.

(There is a site that tells a person the reasons on why the Mac OS is better on Mac Based computers w/ the Pros & Cons)

OT: I already see some flaws to whoever made that picture.

(i.e. whoever made the picture calculated the CPU differences wrong)

Had a conversation about this during English class about company propaganda.
Apple was at the top of the list, and even a English teacher that knows jack shit about computers knows that Apple is overpricing their products

Another "contribution" of Gaige by posting an oversized pic with way too many words.

Do you REALLY think that people ACTUALLY read all those words?

I'm used to Windows so I stick to using PCs. Macs are a bit overpriced but that's also because of the quality and consumer trust that comes with it. Personally I would rather assemble a good PC instead of buying a Mac but I'd be lying if I said I never considered buying from Apple while in the middle of processing 800MB photos (per image).

[Azilius]

First day in my intro to engineering class I saw more macs than pc's. Decided it was time to stop giving a shit and let people waste their money if they want.

Spoiler!

ps
cpu argument is retarded on that pic "that's only a 400 MHz gain!!!"

-_-

I did

I agree though. I would consider getting a Mac IF

A.)It cost me nothing
B.)I was rich with a money tree growing out of my ass.

Did you just say that people shouldn't put any thought into what they buy and just go with whatever happens to be in front of them?

I was talking in the phone and reading, after finishing I don't know what I've read lol

[Gaigemasta]

Ahhhh *sits back on my computer chair and kicks my feet up on the table*

That'll do pig, that'll do

[non ego man]

I agree with everyone saying that this is a worthless post. The last place I go to get opinions on technology is the internet. We also need to keep this internet free of arguments and disagreements and shit like that. The internet is good for only 3 things: checking my bank account, getting pie recipes and porn. Everything else needs to go. And pronto. You guys rock. Keep it up.

[Mirosuke]

+1 this thread. Mac are fancy, sure they are but overpriced as ****.

if thats all the net is for, for you, GTFO, this isn't a porn site, or paypal, or even a recipe site, so WTF you doing here!

I made this thread for people to QQ over it (succeeded very well, and allow Mac vs. PC arguments spark, I gave my opinion, I was interested in others.) The internet is great for arguing, since we can almost say anything we choose, without real-life consequences (CWNBS[except for the true tards of the net) As long as people don't +1 their shit, flame, and actually contribute this can actually be a decent thread, I just started, now you guys are in control, you form how this thread will survive SO STOP BITCHING

Whoops! I forgot [sarcasm] tags.

Thought it was kinda obvious.

Or are you being sarcastic too?

Now I'm confused.

Gaige doesn't nearly have the amount of wit needed to pick up on the sarcasm let alone retort to it.

Many arguments there are rubbish.

1) The processors are 2 * Xeon, not i7 or anything like that. People should get their facts straight. If it's got two Xeons, it's a workstation, and that's what it's meant to be. And for someone who absolutely needs the fantastic I/O the Xeon has to offer, the extra money is DEFINITELY worth it.
2) It's ECC RAM. I bet 99,9% of people don't know what that is, or why '2 GB of ram don't cost $100'. Read up if you don't know.
3) The Video card arguments is stupid. Anyone getting a workstation, will buy NVidia Quadro, not GT whatever cards. Indeed, the video cards are weak for this kind of system. I would just buy the cheapest one, and then replace it with NVidia Quadro.
4) Have you ever seen an Apple display in real life? If you have to spend 8-10 hours in front of one every day, doing your work, you definitely want DVI, and the high quality picture it has to offer.

Bottom line is, they might not be the ideal thing to get for doing general purpose things like gaming, etc. However, they're very very good for someone who needs to do specific things with their computer, and needs comfort, power, and the largest pool of applications available. I don't own a Mac myself, but I plan on getting one as soon as possible.
