One might presume that if one is getting made fun of and picked on all the time by a bunch of computer geeks, based on one's choice of computer, then really all that means is they are being pestered for disagreeing with a bunch of geeks and can rest comfortably in the fact that they are not a computer geek like the computer geeks who are doing the making fun of and picking on.

and if you've ever sat behind the keyboard of a mac there's so much truth to it as well.

i guess MAC people don't find the ideosyncrasies of a MAC annoying. I know i sure as hell do.

Yeah everything on that video is true. I bought an iMac one weekend, it froze atleast 10 times the night I got it just doing simple things "too quickly" for it - so that Sunday I returned it. f'ing 15% restock charge

I had two classes with about 35-40 macs. During the course of the school year I think we had 10 freezes and that was because we were trying to do some large stuff.


I opened up every single program we had installed(about 30) on my friends computer when he would go to the bathroom and what not and it opened them all pretty fast. I'd like to see you try that on a pc.
