^ very true.

Reliable hardware, HA! It's the SAME shit.

Maybe if Apple started buying AMD chips I'd start lookin to buy one, but even if they did have AMD chips their prices would probably be the same just so they can make more profits.

Windows sell OS not PC's so by showing it working on a Mac, they attract more public which is better for them.

yea lol, so what?

Why does the mac poofta yuppi crowd associate anything MS with PC?

So they are displaying vista on a mac, I guess its the correct thing to do, because its a direct gui rip of the osx or whatever.

Now that I think of it, MAC will also get a profit from that. Oh boy, more MAC for the world.

^^ werd..

hehehe

BTW, I am doing a lot of image and video editing (using all adobe ex-mac software) on my PC's and I can tell you straight up that the same apps are easier and more intuitive on the PC compared to the spastic one-button poofta mac mouse and system..

Far from offended, it's just a pathetic attitude is all, hence the rolling eyes.

No, it's pathetic because he's a grown ass man stereotyping people based on a brand of computer.
