Mac Users Are Pretentious Assholes



I'm sure you've seen these dumb commercials on TV recently. If not you can see them on the apple site. Basically it shows a hip youngster (symbolizing a Mac) talking about computers with some old square nerdy dude (symbolizing a PC). The Mac talks about how it runs better, is smaller and has no viruses. Now I'm no hacker, nor do I pretend to be, but if you made a big deal about not having viruses, I'm pretty sure that's going to be taken as a challenge. Now I can see a few years ago, Mac hard drive capacity was higher, and the operating system was a lot more stable compared to the PC and Windows. Nowadays, you can get as much memory in a PC as you can a Mac if you custom build it. I use a PC at home, and a Mac at work, and I can definitely say the Mac freezes a whole lot more than my PC with Windows XP. Mac also says that they can organize all your music, videos and pictures, however that can all be done through iTunes, which is a free download for PC and Mac.

Now I have no problem at all with Macs, I can't honestly say I prefer my PC to a Mac or vice versa. I just hate the stupid attitudes that Mac users have, where they think they're better than PC users. It's just a computer, get your head out of your ass. Most Mac users use their computers in the same way as a PC user, they just get to join an elite clique and pay more to do the exact same thing a PC does.

EDIT: The new Macs with the intel chips freeze up Adobe and Macromedia programs, which are extermely important to graphic design jobs. Graphic Designers are some of the most rabid Mac supporters, so it seems like a slap in the face that now they seem incompatible.
