Rah!

Re: Rah!

I have the same mindset for Windows 7 as I did for Vista. 'Unnecessary, expensive upgrade that is likely to go wrong a lot. Stick with XP'.
 
Re: Rah!

I haven't tried 7 yet but I have heard it is better than Vista and is much like a *Glomp* elite L33T OMFG Windows XP on crack... But I won't try it and judge it until it drops to a lower price.

I hate both of them after that mockery "Vista". It is mainly just what is easier to use and is the lesser of two evils.

And the Mac commercials are hilarious, and some even true.

I agree. The Mac commercials are very ingenious...but I still haven't bought a Mac... I don't think Windows is supreme in anyway, I just don't tolerate change well and can't be bothered trying to figure out how to use linux or any of the linux ops.

When google's new OPS comes out, I may consider upgrading to that, i'm a google whore...can't help it.
 
Re: Rah!

apple definitely has the better hardware i would say...
but the windows layout is SO much more user friendly.
PC all the way. 'cause anyone can use them, and the hardware is for the most part decent.
 
Re: Rah!

The only reason that Apples products are better built is because Microsoft PCs don't exist. If they did, we'd have the impression that Windows PCs were perfect. Instead, outside PC makers make the computers and Microsoft make the software.

The xBox 360 is well built. inb4rrod. The Red Ring of Death was just really unlucky on Microsofts part, it would have been impossible to detect it would happen in such a small amount of time.

Zunes are very well built, too. And the Microsoft keyboards etc.
 
Re: Rah!

I laugh at people who fiercely defend Mac/Windows respectively. Way to buy into the corporate propaganda. Don't you realize that 'conflicts' like these, such as the 360 vs PS3, are at the core just very clever ad campaigns?

Dance little puppets, dance!

Didn't it ever occur to you that people can simply just prefer one to the other?

Hush, will you?

Or that some can only afford one or the other? If it were up to me, I'd have a PS3, 360, and a Wii...husband wont dish out the gold...
 
Re: Rah!

The next notebook I get will be a Macbook Pro. I'm itching for my current Dell Inspiron to die just to give me an excuse to shell out for a MacBook. I'm not super thrilled about the insane MacBook Pro prices, but provided it does what I need, it's secure, and speedy then that's good enough for me.

One thing, however, that bugs me about Apple's marketing schemes is just how openly they tend to bash Windows. I mean - daaa-yum. I've checked out Apple's WWDC vids on YouTube and don't get me wrong, Mac OSX Tiger, Leopard and now Snow Leopard look awesome, but it seems that Apple's main marketing strategy is to just bash the hell out of Microsoft - Windows 7 looks amazing as well by the way - and I swear all the toffs in the audience applaud like crazy and totally eat up all the junk that the Apple representatives spout out.

I just find it uncomfortable to watch sometimes - it seems wholly unprofessional. But I'm not a billion-squillion-gajillion dollar company so I might as well keep it clamped.

Maybe Santa might bring me a nice Windows 7 gaming rig and a fancy Macbook Pro for website stuff.

Of course. But judging by the level of corporate...lets say 'loyalty', in this thread it is above "simply preferring". Just like in real life.

This conflict they created makes the users fiercely loyal of the brand. Its pure genius. Just ask your average 360 user what he thinks of the PS3.
 
Re: Rah!

If the Zune HD had things like an app store alternative and stuff, I would much rather have that. They look so cool.

And where does MS get away with charging so much for their OS's? I looked in my flyer and the new Mac OSX Snow Leopard was like 40 bucks! It was almost tempting to go buy that. Hell, I don't even know if it would work on a PC system. Probably not. :lol:

And one of the main reasons I have Windows is the game support over Mac. :lol:

zune does have it's own itunes sorts of store...its sort of complicated to use though.

Meh, good point. It ****es me off to the point of exploding.

OMG 360 IS WAY BETTER BECAUSE [one of three reasons below]

1. no games for ps3
2. expensive omg
3. no one online omg

Which all three have either been fixed or were bull**** in the first place.

And of course, PS3 fans

1. ps3 is more reliable
2. ps3 is more powerful

1 has more or less been fixed. 2 is pointless because what is the use of power if the PS3 doesn't even use all of it?

I say they're both more or less the same.
