The funniest part of the flash clip was, When he tells you the easiest way to turn the MAC off.

But anyway, I know how it is to "try" to operate a MAC... sad.gif

Hahahahaha.

I guess that he's trying to tell you something when he says he made it on a Mac because the thing is all blurry.

Why do us mac users always get picked on. I don't think I can remember the last time my mac got a virus. blink.gif

But it was pretty funny.

I've used Mac's before and they're not that hard to operate. I failed to find anything funny on it, but I guess some people would find it funny.

Virus, no. I/O ERROR every time I load up my disk and try to move a file to the desktop? Yes.

This flash is also like 4 or 5 years old. So he's making fun of a lot of historical mac problems. And I know all of them. ALL. I used to use macs at school. The things were pieces of shit compared to the IBM computers across from them. They had all of the problem described in that flash, plus MORE.

He neglected to mention the error you get when your memory is low AND YOU TRY TO CLOSE DOWN A PROGRAM TO FREE UP SOME MEMORY! What error is that? Low memory error, cannot preform operation! Ok, fine ... restart it. NOT ENOUGH MEMORY FOR THAT EITHER!? WHAT!?! This is the point where I hit the power switch and find out that the Mac has frozen up, so I now find the inlet at the back of the mac and unplug it.

Seriously though macs a few years ago I can, without a doubt, call a piece of shit for a playtoy. But more modern macs? I haven't used one for over 5 years for a reason, I don't intend on switching now.

All Apple has to keep them alive is their Ipod, and it's apparent they are putting all their resources into that now.

Seriously Rexy, the company is barely surviving right now, the only reason they're still alive is because of the IPod.

But the Mac 10 is alot better, But there is still some minor flaws in the Mac 10.

So has anyone used Tiger yet?
I've been waiting for my school to get it so I can get it. It's sold out everywhere though...

I've used tiger. It has some cool programs, but it would of been better if it added new stuff to the idvd and imovie. Also I think the Ibooks kicks anyother lapton. The battiers is it only problem.

Actually the only thing keeping Apple alive (if you want to get technical) is Bill Gates' fear of a law suit for having a monopoly over the computer industry.

I'm an avid Mac supporter, and I have never gotten any issue whatsoever with my Mac. I've never had a crash, never had a virus, never had any error messages with memory issues. This Flash would have been funny if OS X didn't exit. Otherwise it makes the guy who made this look ignorant and stupid.

And really people, its just a computer. If you don't like Macs and feel we should know of your hatred of them, that makes you look really pathetic because you actually spend the time to think about and argue over a computer. I thinks Macs are a lot better than PCs in some things (like I direct movies for fun and Macs are the best computer when it comes to film editing), whereas PCs are etter when it comes to gaming. There are pros and cons to both sides, so don't act as if Macs blow and PCs are omnipotent.
