I can refer you to several Apple stores. Since you have a PC, I'm suprised you didn't already have several contacts for PC repair stores. I mean, don't those things break down atleast once a week?

Yes, because Apple hard drives are made from the cells of dead babies...so they NEVER fail!

Why do all mac users have this uncontrollable urge to bash PCs? Is it some kind of size issues that make you act this way or what..
I got a PC, with the same WIN XP installation for about 3 years, still running perfect, I never have to reboot or anything so shut the f*ck up already you lousy maggots.

I don't mean to fan the flames, but all of my friends that have macs fall in this description.

But it basically boils down to personal opinion.

Exactly, I work for Creative Labs, and that is why I said it also...

Well, since I am typing this on a Mac while my Laptop is being repaired/upgraded

I'll try to give both sides of the story:

Mac: Nicer to work on, way better design (I am not talking just about the OS but also about the look of procesor casing and monitor) Safari looks much better then Explorer and is IMO more confortable to surf on then Firefox.

PC: compatible with everything, software and hardware are much cheaper then their Mac equivalents, if you know computrs (wich I don't

) you can tune up your Windows to look as good as MacOS. And, finally, THE MOUSES HAVE MORE THEN ONE BUTTON!!!!!!!! THe only thing I hate/despise/wan't-to-choke-someone-over about Mac is the bloody idiotic worshiping of the one button mouse and use of Command key for the Right-clicking. You don't know what suffering is until you make a 100000+ score in Jeezball using damn Command key instead of a healthy mouse.

My mouse has three buttons and a scroll wheel and I'm using a mac.

I have finally lived long enough to hear a Mac user speak the truth.!! The one button thing!. Most Mac users are so enamored of their Mac's that they will not acknowledge what many Mac users will say is a flaw.

I have never understood why the large majority of Mac users have to bash PC's! To each his own! Isn't that what makes the free countries of the world great? You can get what you want, I can get what I want and we can all live and interact together online, and don't even have to know what other platform the other person is using.

I use PC's, but, I'm fairly capable and can fix most problems I come up against. One day, after I pay of my kids weddings and get the truck of my dreams, I plan on getting a Mac just to try it out. If I like it, I might get some more, but I know I will not feel the urge to make every one change with me.

The reason people with macs enjoy bashing PC owners is because once you actually buy a mac and get aquainted with it you love it and you find out how much easier it is and how much more you could do. They would then turn and make fun of people that don't use macs because they werent smart enough to get one and defend PC's night and day but doesnt realize that they were once there also.

Moral of the story get a mac.

I do actually work for microsoft.

Mac owners try and twist their personalties around their computers like creepers. Which is ridiculous because a mac, like a pc, is a glorified calculator, nothing more. A turing machine in a pretty box. And the mac ads with that pair of WHORES plastered ALL over London are just horrible.
