    Where is it being displayed (and if you point to my post, protip: read the last sentence)?

    In any event, use what you think works best for you but don't be afraid to try things. Saying 'lol mac' is about as mature as saying 'lol 360, PS3 4 lyfe!11'. Console wars are stupid, OS platform wars are stupid, but both help to drive innovation (or really just help the best ideas get stolen and used by everyone). Just don't be too stupid to ignore the other side; give them a fair try once and a while.

    I'll get a MacBook Pro once I get out of the military for my video-editing and production needs, but I still prefer PC for gaming.

    This. Macs are great machines. Some people that are so used to Windows just say that because that's all they know and are extremely reluctant to change. I used to be one of the 'lol mac' guys, then I grew the fuck up. There's flaws in both, stfu.

    macs are PCs


    macs are extremely overpriced


    also planned obsolescence
    The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth becomes the greatest enemy of the State.

    Can you smell the arrogance in the room?

    I own multiple of both! A Lenovo Thinkpad, MacBook Pro, iMac and a custom built PC are all within my arsenal.

    I primarily game on my custom-built (the wife tends to use the Thinkpad to play with me). The MacBook Pro and iMac are my work computers -- I'm a programmer and trying to do my work on a PC is unreasonable.

    Seriously, I limit the use of my PCs strictly to gaming. Nothing else works like it should on any Windows OS. Make the wrong turn, click the wrong button and you've lost a DLL, screwed up your registry or have a trojan.

    Working on a unix-based system makes my code compilation times fractions of what they would be compiling on Windows. Not to mention, if I really needed Windows for anything specific I could easily dual-boot any of my machines with a VM since my Macs are Intel-based.

    --

    The people who hate Macs have never had a need for one, it's that simple. The people who hate Windows are too prideful and won't give up defending Apple.

    Sure, I have an iPhone -- but that's because I don't want to hassle with my phone, overclock it or install a custom ROM. Doesn't stop me from owning an Android tablet though, does it?

    This thread has turned bad -- even for the Flame Bucket.

    If that's the case, then my first wife was a pterodactyl.

    5 days can be considered a necro. And your wifes' aging has nothing to do with the aging of threads.
