lol so some techies out there have still the guts to tell me a mac is the shit when they have almost the same hardware inside than a PC at a higher price tag.... not cool enough to be a mac person my ass... not retarded enough to invest money in something that is overpriced just to have a nice little aluminum box with an apple stamp on the back... now i'm just talking hardware... but about the OS... oh yeah mac OS X is a stable bitch.... but you have about as much access to it than you have on a Vtech game for kids.... come on people get real OS X is made for people that do not know how to use a PC... you turn it on and off and that's it customisation personalisation is close to innexistant... the only reason MS is getting those blue screen is 90% due to a miss handleing from the user... and also by the simple fact that this OS has to be able to run on about any kind of hardware combination possible and imaginable... which is not the case for OS X... it's easy to make something stable when your overall standard configs can be counted on 2 hands...
anyway beside those 2 if you are a geek and not gaming the best bargain is still a PC and a linux distro...
and for the mainstream give me a break to go on internet check your mails chat on IMs go on facebook google and youtube.... you certainly don't need any product from apple that justify the price... you are still better off with a 600 bucks PC... apple is just a trend for urban metrosexual retards that think it's cool to have one...

Wow, what a load of bitter hatred! But I'm still waiting for the price of a PC that's truly comparable to a standard 15" MacBook Pro. And what the heck are you on about access to the OS? Have you ever even used OS X?

And yes, it is easier to make a stable OS when you have a closed platform, and that's exactly the point with Macs. And FYI, Windows doesn't run on "about any kind of hardware combination possible and imaginable". I'm not saying OS X does, either, but desktop Windows runs on Intel/AMD processors only. If you want to talk about an OS that's truly running on just about any hardware, then it's Linux, pure and simple.

I just don't get it why it is so hard to accept that people are not buying Macs just for the hardware, they are buying a whole lot more. For me, and I'm not alone in this, the whole package is well and truly worth the price. You know, there's more to the world than hardware specs.

 

That's why I run a Windows/Linux machine. When it comes down to it, Macs are stuck between Linux and Windows. Theyhave just about all disadvantages of all, and none of the big benefits of either.
