and it can emulate a 500MHz PII, whereas the most a PC can emulate is a Mac Quadra!! they can't even emulate a G3 |

"yeah right, shutting down your mac.........it just goes poof, it's gone" funny that, because I hardly ever need to shut down my mac because unlike PC's mac actually has a sleep function that actually works fast and doesn't crash all the time. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah the windows sleep function is stupidgay |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yep, exactly |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that's funny because LOGIC is something mac owner's DON'T have. GET IT????? |

in your avatar... how exactly does the 2nd dude die? |
||||||||
|

|
|
oh yeah, mac's are so shit is that why RISC architecture is about 100 times better than x86 architecture? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hey now, " X is 100times better than Y" arguments don't work :D |
||||||||

I saw a comparison, the new AMD 64 bit chip is faster than your hardcore "dual 1ghz G4" box. suck it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
sorry, but 1) that's bullshit 2) we have G5's now |
||||||||
|
|

i hear they're gonna port doom 2 over to mac increasing it's game count to 8. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

I always love how indignant mac-owbers get. yeah, Windows may be crap as hell, but it deed each us to laugh!! HA!! |
||||||||
|
|

each should read teach. windows sucked up the T. |

i think xp is a step in the right direction for microsoft though. all their other platforms were way too buggy. it's my favorite so far. i have such a hard time using computers without a right click. you don't know what you got till it's gone. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
microsoft stuff has always been a bit too mickey mouse i think. mac used to be too but in a nice way, +now theyve got unix they're fucking awesome. m$ users constantly bait macheads cos they're so envious i reckon :) |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
lol, yeah ok did you actually know that id Software are NATIVELY coding DOOM3 on Apple hardware and software? no, you didn't and for your information DOOM has bgeen available for Mac since 1995 but Windows XP is a step in the right direction.....just a shame they had to rip off Mac OS X in the process |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
9 years of Doom must get boring, though. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no, i'm a major doom fan!!!!!!!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
and you know, there are shit loads of games for Mac if you guys actually bothered to look |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
why should I have bothered? I don't have a mac. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well usually when someone chooses a side, they have substantial information about the opposition i built PC's since the age of 12, and used them up until i was 16, and i still play about with PC's, so it's not like i don't know my shit |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ha ha! that's naïve! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
remind me not to make jokes in your presence in the future since you lack the ability to recognize them. -.- |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
lol heheh |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
all computers suck. this technology is still in its toddler stage. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
lol, yeah you're totally right |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||

They both crash from time to time, PCs are just heaps cheaper. But I can't stand how Apple run their company, like releasing the an old laptop with a slightly bigger screen, etc. And too many of the Macs look wimpy, the G4 and those desktop machines look pretty good, but the iMac? Yuk! that ones for the girls. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Who cares what kind of computers people use? They both run the same programs and do the same shit and they are both good for different things. |
||||||||
|
|

I just can't wait for the dual 3ghz G5's. They should be insane. Debating whether to get a G5 now or wait. I hate waiting though. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Well anyway, it's funny. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
The extent of my tiny knowledge of macs is a wired magazine article I recently read called "the world according to woz" or something, about the guy who made the apple II. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes im quite off mac. it's expensive |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i'm waiting for the G5 imacs, that will be my next computer |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
they aren't as expensive as you might think, an ibook is under £800 and i managed to get an imac for just £900. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
They are expensive & slow! Why bother!? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I heard a survey was done and something like 97% of Mac owners admit to wetting the bed well into adulthood. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
quite funny, not really true i think |
||||||||
|
|

Sletvold! MACCEN SHUCH WEDERNT BERGEN. |

slow? are you judging this on the speed of games? Macs are designed for actually doing work on. My new mac has NEVER crashed and is plenty fast enough for my graphics work. Mac is the standard for most art related work for a reason. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
games on a mac... Hell no! :-) I've worked the last 9 years on a daily basis on a mac (G3's, G4's) and now a G5. (I'm a graphic desinger). This G5 is only a little bit (and I mean A LITTLE BIT!) faster then my comp at home, and that's a PIII, 1Ghz! :-) (some stuff, like opening big files, is even faster on my pc!) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I second that motion. My mac is fast and stable. I work the bitch to death with graphics all day adn not one crash since OS X. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i'm sorry, but that's bullshit a G5 1GHz is the equivalent of at least a 1.5GHz P4 x86 chip. The only reason why things might be slow on the G5 is if you've got hardly any RAM installed. Absolute minimum memory I'd put in ANY machine (Mac or PC) is 256MB RAM. Mac's do require a bit more though, but that is down to the OpenGL based rendered GUI. oh yeah, I forgot to mention that... Mac OS X - GL rendered Graphical User Interface....ON THE FLY. Anti-aliasing, Transparencies etc. What does Windows do? Oh, the menus fade in and out...and even then it doesn't do that all the time Anyways, i digress.... |

I can have Adobe Photoshop 7 open, Reason 2.5, Safari, GeekTool, FruitMenu, Shapeshifter, Silk, XSounds, WindowShadeX, and all whilst burning a CD in Toast Titanium |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
My Dual 2.0GHz G5 with 1 gig of Ram worked great but once I installed Panther it really boosted the performance. And yes it's fast, I can have Photoshop saving a document, Illustrator open, burn a cd and surf on safari all at once. Sometimes with more apps open in the background. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i envy you dual 2gig G5's i wouldn't use G5 yet though, because i use Virtual PC quite a bit..... i'm waiting for the G5 Powerbooks! they're gonna be the bomb! I bought panther quite soon after it came out, and it boosted my iBook quite considerably. |

From person experience, PC does everything Mac does, only better. From what loads of people say, it's the other way around. But I hate Macs from experience, so I won't use them. Go me. |

I just bought a 2.0 g5 today =) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
nice! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
lol sorry but PC's don't have GL rendered GUI in REAL TIME RISC processors are better than x86, ask anyone who knows proper technicalities of CPU's |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Well I have a dual because my work got it for me. Also a graphics designer. I hope to get one for home to make music on. I currently have a g3 at home and it is just not enough anymore. |
