I never liked mac’s when I had to first start using them. Then recently I had to use one at school because all the pc’s were in use. It took me 5 mins to figure out how to get on the internet. Then after I finally pull a page up the thing freezes on me. It was the only program I had running so it can’t be user error.

Sorry but in my world only thing a mac has over a pc is it looks pretty, but I’d rather have something stable than pretty looking displays.

My G5’s at work are as stable as it gets dude, don’t judge a mac based on one at a school thats probally beat to shite. Ha ha, speaking of, I’m in the middle of opening up a 4 gig pshop file, I have a rendering cooking, and I’m browsing the interweb, heh heh.

haha… i’m not going to argue with you because it doesn’t seem like its worth the time… but i assure you that macs (windows as well) is not as stable as it gets!!! i work on mainframes that have been up for years… including ‘patching’ and migrations to new hardware… depends what the computer is setup to do… and at any rate, i’ve yet to come across real world experience that even showed macs to be superior in any way… other than what makes you look like the most yuppie faggort in starbuck evAr… 🤣

computers are ghey anyway…

this makes no sense? are you benchmarking an application? a specific function? or just who has a bigger penis?

OSX as an OS is pretty bad ass. I am not a fan of MAC at all, but I give credit where credit is due.

The MAC cluster at my work is strictly badass! what they did for cluster could never be done in the windows world. They load the OS off of an ipod for christ sake! don’t be so windows prone or you will miss alot of cool shit in the computing world
