It's a bad musician that blames his instruments.


This.

Our accounting has a Mac and is running Parallelles so Windows and OSX can operate at the same time. I was so skeptical, but now I'm amazed . It. works. perfectly.

Agreed. Most PC's are just slapped together bits and pieces. I bought an Alienware to avoid this and so far have received "ok" service, but nothing compared to Apple.

And like you, the iMac that I am typing this on now is from 2009. It's FAST and works perfectly.


If its too expensive for you then don't buy it, sheese! Get an iMac for $1399 instead, or a Mac Mini for $599 and connect your own monitor. There are many options.


You know you sound like an old man when you talk like this, right? ;)

And sorry dude, but support is important. You and I don't buy computers just to play games, we rely 100% on them for our businesses. They *HAVE* to work. And if something goes wrong, we need Fast, instant, expert support. It's a necessity, period.


Ditto. But then again, iMovie is a simple tool made for people who want to edit home videos included with the OS for free. FCP is a professional system that's purchased separately. Night and day...


peace.

I'm using an LG 34UM95-P monitor that has both Displayport input for PC and Thunderbolt for a Mac Pro.

All I have to do is switch inputs to go between either machine. One very cool thing is that the monitor works as a USB switch so I have a keyboard connected to the monitor and it works on both machines.

Very cool! Thanks for letting me know. Are you happy with that monitor? Resolution is good, etc? And does your mac take advantage of its super-wide resolution?

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

or mac users :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

My computers were never in such a state that i had to resort to using service calls or whatever... Like you say, we work with computers, that means you can sort about everything out yourself. You know what you do on it right? So you know how to solve things you've done, right?

I have no idea what the hell you have to do to a computer to be needing some support guy on the phone like some clueless airhead. Like i said, support is for the elderly and brainless chicks.

For me it's a better setup than going for multiple screens. Certainly less clutter and better cable management. Having a large display area certainly makes it easier to be aware of things. And I usually have the last 1/5 of the screen for Spotify

The USB switch is fantastic. I have the same keyboard and speakers connected to the monitor and they are available to both machines. Then a MX Master mouse connected to both as well. It makes the environment change between OSX or Windows seamless.

No problems running it with Mac or PC: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dRSeCKnmCLo

All I know is that my new Retina display iMac is AWESOME!

Hahahahahha
I killed all of the laughing faces

In defense of apple computers, though, the hottest female in the whole country, who I have been inside of and fallen asleep with on many occasions, she does use apple computers

But they still suck
And I wonder what ever happened to her because
MOONHOWL

What a drama lama. No point to add anything as toomuch nonsense was already told.

Then why not remove all ports. Jack stick? WTF, use some bluetooth headphones.
And what about that charging port. Apple never heard about wireless charging.

There was zero reason not to include a USB 3.0 or at least more than one USB-C port in the Macbook. HP managed to make the Spectra even thinner and it at least includes 3 USB-C ports.

But oh no why make something more usefull, instead of letting the clown Jony Ive rule the company.

Apple customers are getting butt fucked, and still they make nothing but excuses to defend the company.

for the 599$ mac mini with no monitor I can get a 6core AMD with a 24" monitor and 2 hookers...or an 8 core with 24"monitor and no hookers...

now I understand if you like the look and feel of apple...but it has no advantage over my ubuntu/AMD setup...I do not even consider buying intel, simply because there is no difference in performance...windows is shit, no debate on this...but ubuntu is another story...

apple to me, is like buying a $599 carrot...

When you understand Steve Jobs, the guy still responsible for the how do you say.. "personality" of Mac products.. ", the way stuff is kind of makes more sense. As a person, he was a very interesting guy.. Good/Bad/Whatever, no matter what you think of him, he lived a very interesting life.

He really valued design, wanted each users experience to be under his control - so he could make it "as good as possible". He was a total control freak, that really shows through in the products. He considered himself like an artist, one who loved making money and obsessed over the marketing of his products - from the user experience which started with how you felt when you "opened the packaging". The commercials were a huge deal, so were product unveiling events. Heaps of ego and talk of how awesome their products are, and they make a tonne of cash (huge margin on their products).. But really at the core, you have open source operating system - tweaked considerably (mostly turning functionality off, lol), hardware designed to work specifically with that software config so they can get better performance with older tech (smart, but they use that advantage to use older tech instead of making it as fast as possible), a really nice case/pretty looking product (usually).. For what it is, I think you over-pay for what you get. Clearly the marketing side has worked very well for them.

Thanks !!!




Thanks again !!!

Why then is it always the PC users who are so pissed off all the time?

Pissed off? No no no no no mate :1orglaugh

We are not pissed off. We actually have a lot of fun, and some even curious about what's going on inside the heads of Apple fanatics.

See.. no anger, just a big laugh..

Yikes! Me thinks thou doth protest too much....!

It's ok. Anytime you are feeling blue, any Apple owner will be more than happy to give you a hug.

Mac Users
 

They are fat wanna be sluts...no one will fuck

I use a mac air, but really it's just for 1 essential reason - it's very light.
I'd take a laptop with windows if it was less than 3 pounds.
Hated it when I just got it, but learned to make do. Now using windows feels bit weird :)

It's so easy to build your own rig at a much cheaper price with the best you can buy in parts. I have built plenty of kickass work and gaming rigs over the years for less then half the price of an Apple computer.

Windows on my work/gaming rig and I use Debian on my servers.

Fuck steve jobs
He said people have a right to be free of having a choice of what they see or don't see
He was against the adult industry 100%
I had respect for the fact that he would discuss things with anyone even if you were no one but I don't like him, his proprietary nazi products or apple so fuck apple
Die apple die

Why is blackmonsters so angry all the time? :helpme

If you like building PC's, then PC's are for you. One of my first jobs was building PC's, and I had a business for about 10 years building PC's after that. 10 years, buying parts, building PC's, selling them, building more... and more... and more...

No more.

If I was going to build another PC today, it would be for some kind of wall-mounted piece of art. I'd love to get my hands on an original PC or XT motherboard and frame it.

I have a very old Dell T7400 with two X5450 quad core 3.0ghz processors over here that will outperform the FX-8150 or whatever they are .. The AMD octo core chips are a HUGE SCAM

If you think intel chips don't outperform AMD you've lost your MIND
I've used those 8 core AMD machines and they're horrible

I'd rather have a pinto plated in solid pure gold than buy a mac
I could not stand steve jobs
It reminded me of the queen of england
So many people have to have the MAC PRODUCT so many people have to know what some QUEEN IS DOING
It's all but disgusting

When it comes to all of the people who post good reasons for owning macs and they have good uses for them and the mac suits their needs, that's different, but 90% of your mac owners just buy it because "HEY LOOK I CAN AFFORD AN OVERPRICED EXPENSIVE TOP OF THE LINE DEVICE I DON'T HAVE MUCH CONTROL OVER"

Because you god damned mac users keep annoying us by talking about macs and by operating them at us :)

Absolutely agreed
You can put a machine together with top of the line name brand parts, or middle of the road, or garbage, whatever the fuck you want
That's what I hate the most about apple
Apple isn't about what the user wants
Not at all
That's also why I didn't like steve gobs
That is HIS doing

Because I like to buy domains and their prices are unfair.

:1orglaugh

That's the best post I have ever seen
Can't everyone do tasting or kiting on random unregged doms anymore?
Probably/Hopefully not, these days?

had a PC before, the Mac works way better
