I gave up my Mac 3 years ago for Windows.. 2 PCs, XP then Vista..

I really liked Vista at first.. After 5 months of using it, what a piece of shit!


Got a Mac today.. So much more user friendly. So much less bullshit.. Windows just makes you feel alienated from the cyberworld..

    Agreed. They are far superior in pretty much every way. Sorry, B.C.

    I pretended to like Windows for 3 years.. made myself think it was good if not better.. fuck that! Windows Vista is like Amy Winehouse... You know Microsoft is working on Windows Seven for 2010 already. They finally realized what a shit operating system they created.

    You believed it was actually better??? Evangelists make much more sense now all of a sudden. :D

    I use both on a daily basis and it's really about the same. Windows has its problems and so do MACs. They're just different problems.

    I agree. I love my mac! The only thing that annoys me is that not all websites are compatible with safari. Other than that, I adore it!

    I switched to a Mac a year and a half ago and I will never go back to a PC. However, I was very disappointed with Apple a last week with the switch over to mobile me. I was without email for 7 days and the only explanation they offered was that they were having trouble with a server...this after they told us it was just scheduled maintenance and would be up in no time. Other than that little hiccup I Love my Mac. Never again will I own a PC.

    I love mac's...been using them since before they were cool. Unfortunetly I had to buy a PC laptop for engine tuning my car and I hate this thing everyday but for now I am stuck.

    I bought a Macbook Air for my sister and that thing is insane !

    I just got a Macbook for college. It hasn't gotten enough "real world" (as in outside of me testing it in my room) use yet for me to make a definitive decision, but I agree that it is very user friendly. As a long-time Windows user though, sometimes I feel like it is "too" user friendly. Like they make it difficult to do things that "most people" won't do to make it easier for "most people" to do stuff that they will do. Know what I mean?

    with my previous laptop (powerbook) I had to use firefox for a few websites (ebay for example). Now, with my new macbook, everything works on safari.
    So, for those who have problems opening webiste through safari, try with firefox

    I've had some problems with the automatic updates, but there are some real design flaws in the MAC OS that hurt efficiency, in my opinion. When you're trying to open a file from an application on a PC, there is a lot of other things you can do functionally such as delete and rename files. You can't do that from the applications easily on a MAC.
