Did you really pay to stick THIS?

[pulse__xx]

lol yes i know im stupid lmao

[Spartan Erik]

lol why pay thousands for overpriced junk when you can get a souped up dell for that much money?

the cost of getting a computer that is compatible with many softwares, can be souped up, and have antivirus and antispyware software installed is entirely cheaper than buying an apple

better yet, be 1337 and build a computer

People who think they are "safe" from viruses and spyware because they use a Mac really ain't that bright (no offence). The only true good secure OS is a closed source Unix. Mac OS(or tiger OSX whatever the hell their calling it) have just as many holes, if not more, as Windows. But windows has a mass userbase while making its user's more sesptible to virus attacks,spyware, adware, etc. It also means that when a security hole is found it's fixed fast. Where as Mac's holes because of a considerably lower user base will be left unfound but then when some person downloades something as simple as a audio codec. They get completly owned by some spyware/virus. The only reason that a Windows computer should fail from a virus or spyware is because the person using it dosen't know squat. Windows also has a lot of quick fixes that you can do yourself. For example some adware installed a program on my computer and every time I deleted or uninstalled it a few minutes later it would reinstall it's self. So what I did is I deleted folder in program files and then made an empty folder named the same. The spyware didn't bother my and I was able to make backups and reformat. So really you have to base virus/spyware sespetibility on who's using the computer not what OS your're running. If there were really no threat to macs you'd never need to update your OS along its x.whatever tree.

But still, macs are definately better than PCs.

Macs are built to get the job done.

Ofcourse you can mod your computer to your own ways, and buy top of the line parts, but that takes money + time. Guess what macs do. They already have it all.

Windows have annoying pop ups telling you some vulnerabilities, or some problem in the OS, which usually make the computer crash.

In Windows, you have to download antivirus programs and firewalls since in XP Home, firewalls are set off in default. Some people don't even know what firewalls are. Pathetic, but I'm sure you will find many people at your school who don't know what the hell a firewall is.

Macs, you get the job done, no crashing, no spyware, and shutting down in no time, when PCs you could get problems of computers crashing, ofcource getting spyware, and shutting down could take around 50 seconds for average computers.

So, paying that extra cash really kinda means something ya know.

And for an end to this post, simplicity really is best. They're real stylish too. Chicks dig em.

Linux = Better than Mac, because at least Linux can run more windows programs than Mac so you dont have to part from those ones you like. It also doesnt have like any viruses. And free, how can you beat that? and money, hmm, i think windows pcs and mac pcs cost almost the same (expecially when you look for a pc with the same items as a mac has). My thought.

To clear things up, Mac only has 200 viruses compared to the 100 000 - 200 000 on a pc.
