"Mac users alwats convince me to get a Mac because you’ll never get a virus. LIES!!!! I use Windows and linux and I have never had a virus or any other malware on my any of my computers. And stop going on about how OSX is the most advanced system. Its not! Its worse than vista! I dont want to be treated like a retard!"

Wait, so you're proving that Macs get viruses by saying that you've never gotten viruses on Windows and Linux? Please enlighten me. I don't hate Windows. Heck, I used Windows all the time, but you know what I can't stand? PEOPLE LIKE YOU. People who act stupid, sound stupid, and make themselves look stupid.

"Oh, and.. why does Windows get more viruses than MACs? .. because no one uses a damn MAC! No one wants to waste their time writing a virus that only one person will get.. MACs have no games, are not compatible with anything, are lousy, and expensive as hell. And, the only way you can upgrade them is simply going out and buying another one!"

LOL. Have you had your head in the sand for the past... Iunno 7-10 years? You can play all the games Windows plays now by running Windows on your Mac. WAIT, WHAT? Mac users using Windows?! Yeah, we do and we don't give a shit - it works. They're not expensive if you ****ing take a look, but again, you are way too ignorant to comprehend anything.

Stupid people, saying stupid things, being stupid. It's quite funny actually. You haven't convinced me or anyone else of anything. You're "ranting" with no reason and no fact to back it up. Go do some research before you make your self look like an ignorant retard.

Oh and the virus was Windows fault, because it was obtained through a back door that hadn't yet been fixed by Microsoft.
---

Now looking at your post about Dell... You just seem stupid and ignorant about computers in general. Go online, do some research, and find a REAL computer. God, I didn't know there were stupid people like you.

thanks for this post! I fuc*n hate macs too! And I hate mac peoples! yeah, because they are a new race of people. most of the time gay.

ATTENTION ALL MAC HATERS.......CHECK THIS OUT http://www.albinoblacksheep.com/flash/apple WOOT MACS R GAY!!!!! IF YOU AGREE WITH THIS ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ JUST SPREAD ANTI-MACISM AROUND AND SPREAD THIS LINK AROUND............WOOOOO....p.s. To the mac users.......wth is with the spinny mouse when ever sumthing is loading........im sorry but i just dont like macs.....i mean no offence but i think macs are gay, thats just my opinion heres how inferior i think macs are in rank wiht other products--------WINDOWS #1, LINUX #2, ANYTHING OTHER THAN MAC #3, MAC #4, p.s. p.s. ZUNE OWNS IPOD ohhh and too all the mac users UGAY, lol jk jk just a little window humor

Wauw..

Your main point is that a mac supposedly does not support right clicking?

Macbooks: tap trackpad (that's the thing you move your fingers on to use the *pointy thing you click icons on your desktop with* ...) with 2 fingers at the same time, tada, right click.. Don't know if powerbooks support this though..

Macbooks/Powerbooks ALTERNATIVE (yeah! 2 in one baby!): attach a frickin mouse through your USB port (thats the rectangular looking *hole* on the side! Yeah thats the one)

iMac/Mac Pro/Any Mac: attach mouse (the newer Mighty Mouse models have pressure sensitivity to recognise right and left clicking, though I do prefer my razer mouse over an Apple made mouse (hey look at that, I'm a mac user and I prefer something else over an apple product!)

Another point why people use macs:

They like it better than computers with windows OS, you say that Mac *fanboys* (I hate that term) keep boasting about their Apple products while there's more Windows *fanboys* that keep putting Apple products down. Look, I don't give a rats behind what OS you use, have fun with it, be productive with it, whatever. If I prefer the workflow on a Mac over that of a win OS computer, let me and don't fling halfinformed crud on the internet in a badly spelled and gramatically incorrect rant.

English is not my mother tongue, yet if i post anything on the net I prefer it to be thought out and well spelled.

About the virusses:

You probably had to buy a virus scanner, a firewall, download some spy-ware checkers etc.
I didn't, does that mean I hate computers with windows on them or their users because they're a magnet to porn pop-ups and trojan's? No. Ok ok, you probably didn't buy them but surfed to the pirate bay and downloaded them for free and got some cracks in your cereal.

Apple is gay because they put the i in front of everything:

So I can call you gay because you can't spell? Or maybe I can call you gay because you rant about stuff you don't know anything about? Oh, I might want to call you gay because you use windows! Why would I? Why would you? Think about it. Besides, gay means happy, I'm quite sure the Apple CEO 's are quite happy

Why do they cost so much:

I don't know, I don't really care that much. I'm not rich, not by a long shot, but I prefer to pay for a machine that won't have to be upgraded/replaced with every new OS. My old desktop mac (6 years old now but did put in a gig ram) runs Tiger, I bought a MacBook Pro which runs leopard. The two systems don't have any issues with each other.

Do YOU have a 6 year old machine running Vista? Like.. the machine it was 6 years ago, do you even know anybody who has an unaltered (except the addition of ram)?



By posting this I mean to give you no cause for offense, just sense.

I'm under the impression that the Mac OS is based around UNIX, naturally this should make Macs more reliable and in theory - more secure than typical Windows based systems. Heck hackers are saying that even Linux is more secure than Vista now!

The vast majority of computer users would be able to quickly adapt to no having a right mouse button although I admit this would be tedious and annoying at first. The reason why you won't find many geeky games titles released for Mac would proberbly be because that's not really what it's designed for; a Mac is more at home in a design studio, art center etc.

The second quarter of 2007 brought reported Mac sales of 1,517,000 units over the 3 month period; now it is of course perfectly possible that Jbennet's views of the Mac are correct and the approx. 1.5 million customers (that's roughly 376 in the time it took you to write your junior essay) per quarter are all in fact wrong?

And although the average year-on-year increase in sales for the PC industry was around 11% for 2007, Mac was 36%. However the jury is still out on whether there was any basis for such a one sided knock against Mac without so much as a mention of Vista?

The only thing better than a rant with poor grammar and spelling with little basis is a biased one.

Dazza

I HATE MACS FOR EVER
they are so annoyin and the stuipd keyboard is broken ahhhhhhhh
macs have a mind of there own with they stuipd control bar that just stuipd
it makes ur eyes bleed with the brightness
WHAT THE POINT in a delte button if you have to drag into the trash bin
the screen to big for anyone if your elf you would be blown away
i swear i going blind because of it so therefor i typing it with my eyeballs burnt out
the mouse has a over powering red light and has only one clicker
it hard to copy and paste beaucse the peole who made this dumb pc are stuipd
there not very user friendly and yes there smell funny
i hope you know i going to die beacuse of this dumb MAC
the on and off bottom on the side so if u only have one finger this makes it very hard for one finger people to turn it on so there cant even to use one HOW CRUEL !!!!!!!!
it very hard to even find the bottom to switch off so i think we should all join to burn this dumb mac
GOODBYE X

i dont know.... i use a pc and i have had absolutly no problems.
also you can prevent viruses on a pc by not downloading every program that you see in popups and useing a half-decent anti-virus program like norten, zonealarm, or macafee.

P.S. i know my spelling sucks

I'm not going to say that I dislike apples. All I can say is that I would be out of a job if it werent for all the PC problems out there!

I have used, repaired, screamed at and been generally frustrated by Windows OS in it's various forms for around 20 years and had the same relationship with Microshite programmes like Word, Excel, Powerpoint and several versions of Media Player etc.

I became extremely good at understanding the nightmare that Windows is that I have had few problems at all with it since the release of XP professional edition.

So much so that I had and still have many requests for help from other Windows users.

It got to the point where I would tell a friend to buy his PC then absolutely not touch it, just leave it in the box and call me.
I would then go around to their place and begin the 4 to 6 hour process of completely wiping the hard disc and reinstalling Windows then update it with service packs.
Then I would install all the software that they would need to PROTECT their computer from all the malware viruses adware etc that is out on the Net.

I would explain that all this security would only help if they were to continually keep everything up to date, which with antivirus software can now be around 4 times a day.

I would show them how a lot of this could be set to be automated in the various antivirus programmes the firewall programmes the cleanup programmes the backup programmes the malware programmes the adware programmes . . . . . . . All of which take up hard drive space and eat into resources like memory and cpu usage.

I would point them in the direction of web sites where they could find information on how to keep their system up and running, I would show them how to escape from screen and programme freezes
All this info and mind numbing shit and they haven't even learnt of the pains and evils of email.


I bought a MacBook pro laptop in March this year. I turned it on and in less than 10 minutes I was working away and doing stuff without having to load any third party programmes. After 1 week I had loaded it with programmes, I had also loaded a complete copy of my windows PC on it and had the use of both systems running parallel.

One of several reasons I bought the MacBook was because of the use of the Intel chip which allowed me to run Win XP on it. I had thought that this would give me the best of both worlds because there were some windows programmes that I thought I would be lost without.

In less than a week I found programmes that were made for Mac that would either work as well or better than the Windows programmes I had grown accustomed to.

I removed the Windows XP system from my Mac as I now had no use whatsoever for it

Less than 3 months later I bought another MacBook Pro.

I have hurled demands at these machines that I can tell you a windows machine would not be able to withstand.

The average windows machine with high specs and maximum ram etc would crumble under the abuse I have thrown at the Macs, Video, Graphics, Music, Spreadsheets, databases, Games . . . . . . .

I have not had one single issue with either MacBook at worse I have had a medium size learning curve to contend with and have almost never any need to use a mouse anymore. At first things were strange and a little frustrating but that would be expected.

The Apple website is a mine of help and information and is set up in such a way that it is simple to navigate and find the information you are looking for.

There are a wealth of Mac user forums too where I have found friendly help and advise.

Apart from a few friends whom I would always help I no longer let on that I know anything about Windows, I am a free man I am not a prisoner to Microsoft NOR A SLAVE TO KEEPING THINGS UPDATED BECAUSE ANOTHER SECURITY ISSUE HAS BEEN FOUND OR ANOTHER BUG IN THE SOFTWARE From Microshite has raised it's ugly code.

As for the Apple ads they had no influence on my choices because until I registered my first Mac I had never had a reason to visit there web site, I saw both the USA and UK
version since and some of them I think are funny.

I couldn't give a Monkey's about the look of my computer as long as it works but it is nice to see something other than a Gray lump of plastic.

One marketing catchphrase from Apple I learned of was 'It just works' For the last 6 months this has been absolutely true for me. I load stuff on I plug stuff in, it all works.
I hardly ever have to reboot after loading a new piece of software and when I do have to, every thing is the way it was before the reboot. With Windows often after installing new software something crashes or disappears from the desktop.
Removing software from a Mac is a simple and painless process too.
Networking? just forget about it click . . . click . . type in passwords and your up and running. Connecting a Windows machine is easy too but if there is a problem I have found it's from the Windows machine.

I don't hate Windows users I don't hate non apple PCs.

What I could come to loathe is a Retard who can't use a computer without a mouse or an Idiot that can't use a spell checker (has computer, can't use it) Or an Imbecile who can't read an article about an issue with an iPod, where a virus was found, after it was connected to a Windows PC. Or a Cretin who cannot discern that Vista is little more than a not to subtle ripoff of the design elements of the Mac OS.

A computer is a machine that you can use to do things with.
What type of computer you use is your choice.

What it looks like and the system it uses to function are also a matter of choice.

Anyone who lets their choice be influenced strongly by advertising and less by research runs the risk of ending up with a 'Lemon' whatever system they go for.

I no longer need to use Windows or Microshite products.
I don't care what my computers look like as long as they work.
But there are people who use Windows and Microshite products, who do care what their computers look like.

If JBENNET were a computer it would be a very poor computer to say the very least.

Quite good, actually. :-) How about you?

Wow, it seems like you're trying to be clever. How's that working out for you?

So you're basically saying you hate Macs because

• No second mouse button
• Bad advertising campaign
• Snobby users
• No good games
• Product names begin with 'i'

The only point that you've made which is constructive is the lack of games (and it's worth noting that you can still run them by using Boot Camp to install Windows on your Mac). Your other points are extremely weak and perhaps biased. For one thing, you can go out and buy a 2 button mouse. Minor inconvenience. And should advertising campaigns, snobby users, and dumb product names really be a reason to hate Apple and/or their products?

So now you're saying that you hate me because I use a Mac. Well, that's encouraging.

OK, but what makes the first statement a lie?

I'd be interested to hear some examples of it. Just saying that an operating system treats you like a retard isn't enough to justify your reasoning behind saying that a particular OS is worse than another.

How does that make them gay?

Where's your proof?

That's one of the few constructive things you've said so far.

Your "blog entry" looks more like a big huge flame than anything else. If this were Digg, I'd bury you.

Oh, and please don't type in ALL CAPS or use so many exclamation marks in a row. It feels like we're being shouted at.

[edit] Going back and reading your previous entry on Dell, I'd have to say that entry and this one are quite alike.

Hell yea! I agree 100%! Damn apple is such a piece of crap.. Have you seen those apple-PC parody commercials? Haha they are hilarious! Microsoft doesn't make any commercials b/c they don't give a damn! The own the entire market!

And for the ipods, they suck! Apple has been sued numerous times b/c they scratch easily, get viruses, and just plain suck balls.

Apple is gay.. you can tell from the way they put a damn 'i' in front of everything.. it's so annoying!

Oh, and.. why does Windows get more viruses than MACs? .. because no one uses a damn MAC! No one wants to waste their time writing a virus that only one person will get.. MACs have no games, are not compatible with anything, are lousy, and expensive as hell. And, the only way you can upgrade them is simply going out and buying another one!

Death to APPLE!!!!!!!!!!!!

Very argumentative, bennet

From this blog all i can tell is that you hate macs?!

I will blog something in response later.......
