How intelligent
I'm actually sick of people that just hate macs because their friend said it was crap or something
At least teclis knows his stuff and has reasons why he hates it, what do you have? They can't do basic things, hah. The mac terminal can do just about everything. Compared to that, windows can't do shit
i wish i could rep you more. you explain things much better than i do haha.

if i wasnt a gamer and if i was extremely rich, then i'd use a mac.

but i am a gamer and i am not extremely rich, so i use a windows laptop =]

macs are awesome for their very sleek design and their over 9000hrs of battery and general awesomeness (despite me being unfamiliar with its layout, but hey, i can learn)

macs are awesome when considering laptops, haven't used the desktop yet.

but for desktops i'd definitely go with windows 7.

Ye Omie Jay's right ehehe
Although the whole right click thing is really a thing of the past, they got past it after they realised users would never get used to it

As a gamer, macs are annoying. I'd never get the desktop solely for that reason
For laptops, macs are amazing
There are ways to get past the whole gaming thing, simplest is to run windows with boot camp

I don't like macs because I prefer programming in Visual Studio than Xcode. Yup.

Strange isn't it. Mac has no problem with windows being installed on its computers, but it won't let OSX be installed on windows computers.

@ Gibbatron: Well, Apple designs and creates their OS and their own computers as well. Microsoft only makes their OS, then other companies make computers
I know where you're coming from though, heh

How about use all (of the main types) of them, like me:

DOS, Windows 98 (used to have 95, but upgraded), Windows 2000, Windows XP (SP1 and SP3), Windows Vista

Mac OS 6, Mac OS 7.5, Mac OS 8, Mac OS 10.3, Mac OS 10.4, Mac OS 10.5

Linux Mint 5, Linux Mint 7, OpenSuse 11, Puppy Linux 4, Wolvix Hunter 1.1.0, BackTrack 3.

and FreeDOS as well, all on separate computers.

See, they can exist together without the world exploding...

Edit: I forgot the Amiga and the Amstrad. Don't use them very often.
