and if technically Macs are PC’s as well, How come apple hasn’t realized this and is still using the incorrect Apple VS PC Comparison?

The ten reasons to switch to mac debunked

Apple accused of cheating on benchmarks

(or to dumb it down even more, not saying your dumb but a lot of people don’t speak great english)

Apple changed their computers so that they could run windows. Why did they do this? Because they FAIL as a company. After they did that, they STILL don’t get as much people buying Apple computers.

I don’t see why people like apple products so much.

With iPods, you can’t drag and drop music, which is terrible for offline p2p.

(i love borrowing someone’s music player and acquiring all their music without the fear of anti p2p companies emailing me, and without having to download all of it, but with itunes, it renames all the songs to a combination of 4 letters and numbers for the name of the file, so when you copy the contents of the ipod, you have to hope that the artist and title are there, and rename them)

Not with USB devices.

You just drag and drop, no renaming files.

Now you tell me which you prefer?

I can be biased now like Macintosh have been with their adverts on the internet and even on TV sometimes and say, PC’s are more supreme than Macs because yes, they do do office stuff, which thereby makes Macs completely useless for the modern workplace, and not only that, so what if Macs can do games just like PCs? PCs can switch between work and play!

See? It’s true…but it doesn’t show both sides of the argument fairly does it? I prefer PCs soley on the fact that I can game to an uncanny extent, and get a whole load of work done relativley quickly because, like a Mac, all Microsoft Office programs are compatable with each other.

I just thought it was a funny picture…but low and behold, the boasting Mac users complain! So I’m sticking with PCs until Mac stop being biased, and even after that I’d only get one if Macs could do the same things AND more of what a PC can do.
*Looks back at picture and laughs ass off…literaly!*

That being said, what separates the two is the hardware that is being used for them separately, which are not interchangable between the systems.

However currently they are making “Intel Macs” that ARE using interchangable parts, hence the drop in cost, and ease of production.

reboot wins.

The TRUE advantage that PCs have over Macs is that a user can build a PC at home from basic components, configure it to his own specifications, and put pretty much whatever OS he wants to on it (with the exception of OSX, that is). With Mac, you can order it configured how you want, but with major limitations.

Price:
the new Apple IMac, as shown on http://www.apple.com is $1,199.00.

Or you could buy this system http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=3272628&CatId=6
for $899.99. Yeah, you’ll still have to get a monitor, but you’ll still save money.

I totally agree with you about the holes and bloat (and let’s face it, Apple and MS steal from each other, and they both ripped of Xerox). I’m told by an ex-MS employee that it’s a corporate culture issue at MS, but I think it’s just a result of the main flaw with the PC: the makers of the OS don’t control the hardware, and there’s a lot of it out there. I’m a former Amiga user who came to the PC world kicking and screaming, so I can relate. I don’t have a problem with macs, I just can’t stand when people make false statements about either.

They had to put a card in that can support more than two high definition monitors of at least 30

Wrong! I have that card and it CAN handle two monitors, same size, same as the mac. Why would it lose this ability just because it’s on a PC? That makes no sense. It was developed primarily for the PC. That’s where the money is to be made.

I renew my call of Bullshit.

“Notes: Mac Pro uses four 512MB DIMMs for increased performance; Dell uses 2 1GB DIMMs. Dell is also available in “750W” configuration for $470 less; this system apparently doesn’t provide enough power to graphics cards to support more than two monitors. Mac Pro’s PCI slots can be configured in four combinations of speeds. Dell LCD display is “free” as part of a current promotion. Dell’s specs for the 690 note 4 DIMM slots for a maximum of 8GB RAM, but other documentation mentions available expansion to 16 DIMM slots for a total of 64GB RAM; Dell’s specs also conflict on hard drive and optical drive bays.”

They had to put a card in that can support more than two high definition monitors of at least 30″ like the “budget level”, as you called it, card in the Mac. And the Dell display, as noted in the notes, is ‘free’ with the computer so the Apple wasn’t configured with a monitor in order to keep it fair, ie. only list what the customer actually ordered.

Oh and Matt Damon! to yo, casemods! ^_^
