LOL article. I run WinXP under Parallels on Mac OSX. Great setup. I'm warming up to Mac OSX, but I doubt I'll ever fully switch.
My mac does video editing a lot better, though..I'll give it that!

Haha, I'd say that was worth the 4 months of nothing.

Yup, Mac users seem to think theyre high and mighty because theyre not using a Microsoft os. Funny thing is macs barely make up 5% of the pc industry so to say theyre in the minority is a vast understatement, i think even linux users have more numbers than mac users. biggrin:
Anyone ever watch the macworld keynote vids? Seems the main shit Steve Jobs babbles on about is "zomg we made this imac 2% thinner, who wants to blow me?". He really seems to think making a screen a percentage thinner thats barely visible to he human eye is some kind of big innovation. oOo:
Not really a bit of wonder they changed their name from apple computer to apple inc.

Wouldn't exactly call a company that worth billions "underground". Its just that idiots suck in all the shit Jobs spews like its the word of god. Macs used to be more stable than windows for one reason, they were a fixed platform, they all had the same type o cpu (different speeds obviously) all had the same motherboard, same ram same chipsets etc. If a company can't get a fixed platform like that to run stable then they may as well shut down and go back to licking windows for a living.
Pc's have literally thousand of different configs, from the high end motherboards to the little $30 jobs no-ones ever heard of. Apple always had it far easier with thier fixed platform approach. Not to mention that if MS hadn't invested $150,000,000 in apple back in 97 the company would most likely have sunk long ago.

neither would i but that's what their marketing scheme is at the moment; and that image has been attached to mac for awhile. that's why alot of mac users are so stuck up. they feel they are using a quality product that isn't the norm, it gives them something to talk about. being different has always been so cool.

about the Mac thing, if I had this desire to "switch" why would I trade one bunch of greedy bastards for another? If it was all about being anti-establishment then you would switch to Linux I would think. I actually like the Panther / Tiger OS, however I'm a hardware guy and until I can use the Mac OS on any piece of hardware I choose (within reason) I don't see the point in me "switching".
Also, on the better graphics thing Zone do you think its the software or the hardware? I've been supporting Mac's and PC for about 10 years now and I've always wondered about that statement... (not trying to pick a fight, seriously)

It's the software, I think. The Mac I have at work comes with iMovie HD built in to the OS. I just plugged in my MiniDV camera and it picked up on it. I didn't have to install any of the shitty software that came with the camera, like I do in Windows.
iMovie is Corky Thatcher-esque simplicity at its finest.
