As for the debate, it's just a computer.
On Windows.

Re: On Windows.
To everyone saying Windows sucks- here is your homework. Make a list of reasons that show Windows is worse than Macintosh and provide quantitative proof assuming that both the PC and the Mac have equivalent cost and are using the same generation of operating systems. If you can undeniably prove the superiority of the Macintosh over the Windows-operating Personal Computer, extend your problem to show why Windows sucks not only on a relative scale but also on an absolute scale.

Re: On Windows.
I understand, I was quoting my first experience with macs, not the current status. Similar to how in Windows many of the problems quoted have also been removed (or can be with a few clicks).Starrz wrote:WELLLL, I don't wanna start anything, but you CAN right click with Macs now, and for the old ones, you could... buy a mouse?
Re: On Windows.
Ah. I see what you mean. Yea, I had a MacBook a couple of years ago and it couldn't right-click, so I had tosave 20$ just to buy a new mouse.TheBigCheese wrote:I understand, I was quoting my first experience with macs, not the current status.

You know, generally you will never get an OS to run as fast on a virtual machine as an actual machine ...
Re: On Windows.
I run windows 7 on bootcamp.
It's really not so bad, compared to vista that is. I like it well enough to go into it and use Steam every once in a while. Nice to have for gaming. I like how mac looks though, and that's why I use it for most of what I do.
The only thing I don't like about windows 7 is that auto-restart update thing. God damn! I hate that thing so bad! I'll be playing team fortress or something, and right at a crucial moment... RESTART.
Why me?

Re: On Windows.
In Linux you only have to restart if there is a kernel update, and you simply restart when you choose. Kernel updates are somewhat rare, and for EVERY SINGLE OTHER UPDATE a restart isn't required. Once again, Linux proves superior.Renegayed_Turner wrote:I run windows 7 on bootcamp.

In an amazing find, I have discovered that Jeff of Wolfire supports the fact that PC's are cooler.
