White man came across the sea
He brought us pain and misery
He killed our tribes, he killed our creed
He took our game for his own need

We fought him hard we fought him well
Out on the plains we gave him hell
But many came too much for cree
Oh will we ever be set free?

Riding through dustclouds and barren wastes
Galloping hard on the plains
Chasing the redskins back to their holes
Fighting them at their own game
Murder for freedom a stab in the back
Women and children and cowards attack

Run to the hills run for your lives
Run to the hills run for your lives

Soldier blue on the barren wastes
Hunting and killing their game
Raping the women and wasting the men
The only good indians are tame
Selling them whisky and taking their gold
Enslaving the young and destroying the old

What if you get a really wicked Mac, you could game easily, especially if it's one of those XP compatible ones.

Macs are pretty good compared to PCs... but damn, I have never seen anything like that picture...macs are pretty expensive, so I wouldn't expect to see so many of them in a room...

i don't thing they're playing games :roll:



Have you ever sat in a classroom like that?

95% of people flip through the powerpoint as the professor presents them, and play games/msn/facebook/movies/music in between.

I remember one of my business classes last term, very first row...guy all the way on the left was watching a movie with his headset on, the guy next to me was playing wow, I was posting on SRF, the row across from me had a guy on photoshop, and the guy next to him was sleeping.

Macs are expensive, but they give out big discounts and cool deals to all students with a valid student ID number. When I was buying my laptop mac had something like $300 off and a free ipod mini with any macbook for all students.

Hmm, I can only imagine what that class would be like...

Instructor wrote:Okay everyone, begin by opening up iWeb and creating a page that says "Think Different". It should be a size 1 header, centered in a table, that blinks and marquees. Then open up The Internet and upload your page to your Dot Mac account.

Unless that like a Editing class, or they got a major discount because of their school. They should have gone with PC. All Mac is, a Trendy type computer. People think they are awesome because of the look and the Commercials (Not saying Macs are bad). Windows and Linux are better OS's I my opinion.

ok. wo why are they worse then windows/linux? Cause they have very little virus problems, and run a stable OS? Or because every important program nowadays is compatible with mac? And for the rest there is an even better substitution.

Hmm..

Because you look like a tool when you walk around with one, you pay ridiculous premiums for your hardware, and you are arrogant enough to believe that anything that isn't on a Mac has a better Mac-exclusive alternative?

Virus problems with any platform are a non-issue unless you are a complete farking idiot.

Don't get me started about stability. Windows would be pretty stable too if Microsoft only had a small set of proprietary hardware to worry about, and even as it is with all of the millions of different configurations out there, they do a damn good job with stability.

Most people are complete idiots on pc's, so the 'non-issue' doesn't really apply.

And about the windows being stable, tell that to my vista installation hmmk? I lol at it irl every day. Granted, it has gotten a little better (am an early adopter) But it's still nowhere near XP which has gotten kinda ok (after 5000gig of updates).
