Mac or PC

bozo by bozoFounder · Aug 21, 2003 · 248 views

ok, i grew up using pc's with windows of all sorts, at my work all the use are macs. when i get home i find myself clicking in the top left corner to close the window or looking for the finder. but no matter what my habbits become i will always be a die-hard pc guy. how about you?

and a side note: to rub it in my dad bought me a shirt that says "Life is short. Use a Mac." sorry dad.... i don't think i'm ever going to wear it.

MACs are hands down better with graphics, music and the like. If you're going into any business with that type of stuff you will be using a MAC. However, they aren't good with the internet, word processing, or games.

tinser #9.1 tinserOG 2002

yeah, macs are great with graphics....but pc's rule in every other aspect...there is no comparison...pc all the way

My earliest experiences with computers on a day to day basis were macs, I had even memorized all the shortcuts, but then when I entered High School we used PC's. So I've gotten very comfortable with them. However my sister got me interested in the powerbook G4 and I think its a force to reckoned with. The keyboard the automatically lights according to the light in the room is a hard act to follow. Does anyone own a powerbook G4.

Well, after the worm ate my PC's hard drive, maybe I SHOULD look into a Mac . . . but ummmmmmmm . . . I think Mac users are computer elitists who have weird standards and are all around wackos . . . and moreso than ME even . . . I'm sticking with my PC all the way

I prefer MAyonnaise. it's so good sometimes. but like most things white with a hint of yellow... too much is gross.

ballyhoo #5.1 ballyhooOG 2001 offtopic

i have to agree. i personally like it slathered all over a triple cheeseburger with a side of dirty underwear salad. its a real treat.

ilikebirds #5.1.1 ilikebirdsOG 2002

oh you eat that stuff ? i only like to bathe in mayonnaise. it's great.
all things float.. not only my rubber ducky.. but my sheep too. he likes splashing around in mayonnaise. sometimes he's a real jerk and splashes mayonnaise in my face... and i yell " hey sheep.. you hurt my eyes " and it goes " baaaaaaa " and i say " aww i can't be mad at you long.. " and he goes " baaaaa " and then i hug him. and eat him.

i...just...never know what to say..

I also notice that video games are really better on pc. Infact i don't know mac's even have any? and if they do, the prolly aren't that good.

ok4now #3 ok4nowOG 2002

i'm flexible...doesn't bother me either way

fivezero #2 fivezeroOG 2003

i don't know what it is, but people who use macs are mega stuffy. i have a friend in NYC and she said she'd only ever date mac users, as if it's some kind of intellectual standard. mac users are ultra elite. creatively, i understand macs afford more options and are more efficient, y'know with film and music and such, but that's infinitely debatable. i, myself, love PCs. but when it comes time to get a new comp--i'm gonna take a close hard look at a mac. you never know.

bozo #2.1 bozoFounder

yeah, i agree totally. Macs are gears alot more toward 'creative' people. I work at a printing company, lots of designers and color creative experts and what not. And Mac knows that and thats why they output computers that are all different colors, some are clear, some have a totally round computer replacing desktop rectangles. But the power of a mac really is for dealing with music or images. I don't know how or what exactly makes it better for those things but the are much preferred in those fields.

macs confuse me so much! how do you right-click?? i just don't get it.

jesse has a mac though, and i LOVE his taskbar...it rotates, somehow...it makes me feel sick but i love it...

bozo #1.1 bozoFounder

No right clicking and whats with the 'apple" button. that does everything that control does on a pc... so on a mac what does control do ? ..... nothing

iwz #1.2 iwz

you can do that on windows... search for ObjectDock, YDock or MobyDock

skaorsk8 #1.2.1 skaorsk8OG 2002

waaaaaaaaaaait...whaaaaaaaaat?? explain. it's a program??

iwz #1.2.1.1 iwz

yep!
