Which operating system do you use, Mac or Windows?
Well I perfer Windows a lot more, becuase the features all better and convenient. In school I use Mac bacuse my school tends to just like to order Apple computers. |

Awe, only 3? I could keep going on about it, so you could say something like, "for the tenth~ time".
But, only if you want. :] |

I'm comfortable with both Windows and Mac. But we're an apple family, so Maccccc all the wayyy. I'm on my iBook as I type this. *hugs laptop*
All of our computers are Macs, we only have one laptop that runs a Windows OS. |

I used windows until about a year ago. I used mac at school and instantly fell in love with it. All of the photo editing, video editing, the ease of use, i thought it was so much better than what i was using on windows. So i started to research the mac os and how simple the transition would be from windows to mac. Finally I decided to ask for a Powerbook for my birthday. I got it and I love it more than anything. I did have really high expectation that have since failed, but they are all simple things happen on windows daily when i use it. Sometimes an application my stop responding for a minute but it is quite rare. Macs are so much more user friendly windows in my opinion. If you're getting a new computer, i definitely recommend that you check out a mac. All of those ads you see on tv for them those are all so true. If you want a computer that doesn't have thousands of viruses, can do everything in one or two programs instead of 20, doesn't need to download software to recognize new hardware, and is pretty much the greatest ever look into mac. haha. Windows vista is even starting to have features that mac has had for the longest time now, so obviously they know what is good.
i use mac at home and windows at school. |

i am a three week mac convert and totally in LOVE! i'll never own a PC again. and it's true. vista took a ton of their new ideas from the mac OS. brilliant, huh? oh, and my macbook pro starts in 20 seconds and makes almost zero noise. that alone makes me a very happy person. and it doesn't get hot at all. hardly warm. as for the OS itself, all the things i hated about windows are non existent and almost everything i wished windows had, tiger has. and, of course, if you like both, you can always buy parallel and run them both. what's not to love?
oh, Safari pretty much stinks, though. i'll take firefox any day, but that's easy to download. |

the reason why the world runs on PCs is because early macs were pieces of shit.

you've obviously never gotten trouble for screaming "what the f**k is finder and why does it need my attention", spent 15 min looking for "shut down", or dealt with trying to find some option that's normally a right click option.

Spent fifteen minutes for looking for 'shut down'? First of all, Mac's don't 'shut down', they sleep. And, they don't even need to shut down, anyway. Rotfl. Oh, &FIFTH TIME!!1/11! |
