I found a video on YouTube along the same lines. Punchline was "But who would want to f*** up a Mac more than it already is?"

I can't completely bash them though. Their OSX is based off Unix.

I love that..... I remember the principal in one of my old schools loved macs and got all macs, but the system admininstrater Demanded a Windows XP based Dell..... Productivity for the classes was at 30%... they had these neat based network laptops which usually had dead batteries too, great concept, but I bet it cost the district like 25k at least for the laptops (Had about 40 or more) and the macs themselves (The monitor/computer ones) I dont want to know..... I tried running a DVD on one and it only accepted CD-roms I was laughing and the teacher was clueless as to why I was cracking up. I also Crashed a mac at the loading screen 4 times in a day usually every day I had to get on one! Sadly they made a huge mistake in buying all macs, all the teachers were ticked, and my schools drama teacher, took him 2 days to burn the School play (First time round it crashed half way, and this job was going to take about 16 hours) Second time I think it worked. Just a little insite on the school macs we dealt with Grin

They should have bought dells at the very least! or like my other school, Compaqs/HPs! Cheers, Gunny (Sorry for ramblin)

Ahh yes Mr. Crestle.....a f***ing genious that man is.

Macs are great for editing. For video there is nothing better, and Tiger and Lepard have fixed most of the old Panthar bugs, but none the less.....they have their problems.

And my favorite thing ever.....Power PC Mac takes on average 5.67 minutes to boot, Windows x86 PC takes on average 1.1M to get from BIOS to desktop.

Maybe macs use hamsters? and they cant run very fast! Grin

While PCs use these huge Power supplys that are ready to start on a dime! Wait, I'm crazy! Grin
