Windows 7 Not Afraid of Netbooks or Macs

[hakesterman]

No comparing Mac's to Pc's, Mac's win hands down. I have both and will never buy another Pc
again. Period.

[citation][nom]etichi[/nom]Is this Jellico's Hardware site... didn't think so. Go circle jerk on a copy of Win 7. jellico... you can't back up argument to my response so this is your response? I got you bitch.[/citation]
Did you give a response that actually requires some sort of argument? Seems that me that all you post is: Blather... blather... blather... Apple rewlz, blather... blather... blather... Microsoft sux! Blather... blather... blather... Americans are fat and stupid! Blather... blather... blather... you are all ignorant PC fanboys!

Oh, and then you claim some sort of victory. Out of curiosity, what did you win?

Look until apple lets others manufacture and sell there hardware components so i can build one at a reasonable price, they are second tier. Yah apple os work silky smooth because the have such a limited amount of hardware to run on. Lets see apple release a os that can run on any combination of hardware. Wont happen cause then you would see Apples short comings. Apple people are awfully proud of themselves and seem to like it that way.

[citation][nom]Yoder54[/nom]No, one was a first gen iMac, an aluminum MacBook, and a mid-209 17" MacBook Pro. Very different hardware...as stated above not key-gens, 800 numbers, etc...as stated above. With MS you have to jump through far too many hoops and installation is a major concern. Can you jump from 32-bit to 64-bit on the fly with Win7? Don't think so...it is easy enough with Snow Leopard. Besides, the Unix core has it all over the vestiges of DOS.Will it be possible to upgrade a 32-bit Win OS to 64-bit without reformatting? Nope. It is possible with SL.[/citation]

you installed Snow Leopard on a first generation PowerPC iMac?

Sorry - no you didn't. Snow Leopard is not compatible with PPC Macs; it is strictly Intel Only. The last OS for PPC was Leopard. Apple decides when it is time to cease backwards compatibility, and they tend to do 3-4 years (last PPC was being sold right about 3 years ago, less than 4, cause I still have an entire rotation waiting to go, and I'm on a 4 year rotation - btw, not RELEASED, that was almost 5. . .when they stopped selling them)

So, no, you didn't.

"I'm sure most of us have tried an iMac and just don't like it."

I would bet 100 dollars most of the ignorant posts come from people that have NOT used a Mac for an extended period of time. Poking around a computer in Best Buy does not count.

i tried macOSX and after a few days of playing around with it i thought it was horrible. i spent hours trying to get it to do everything my windows OS lets me do and i just quit after trying to configure everything. it was just as bad as Linux

If you want it to be just like Windows, just use Windows. No harm, no foul.

its not really windows i care about it that i grew so accustomed to some windows programs that i could not do without. id the same programs were on macosx then i maybe i could move over to it an example is there is no decent media player on macOSX that is even at the same level as Winamp.

I use the RTM of Windows 7 Enterprise on my Dell Mini 9, alongside OSX, and prefer them both for different things. I use Win7 for work as it's a necessity and I think it's worlds better than XP/Vista. I use OSX for casual web browsing and...well ok that's it, but I like it as well.

Oh yeah, and I wasn't dumb enough to pay twice what the hardware is worth for a real Mac Stupid Mac (not OSX) users......
