Shen: Nobody is arguing that PCs are better than macs because that's not the basis of the argument (although I'm sure I could make a good case for it). The point is that macs aren't better than PCs, and given that, you're best off using something that's compatible with everything else. Also macs suck,
Radix: I know nobody was stating that; people are being picky about Macs while not seeing how Windows machines potentially suck more: http://trustworthycomputing.com for example
and "you're best off using something that's compatible with everything else"
What if you don't need to be compatible with everything else, and just need the usual suite of applications (Browser, Office suite, calendar/organiser apps) that the Mac provides?
If you just need an office machine, use whatever you like. If you're using it for work than chances are the employer is going to buy th emachine anyway.
The point is that edwin claimed macs are better. Our point is that they aren't. As far as hardware goes, because anyone can make IBM-compatible parts the competition means you wind up with a wider range of components, including some far better than those produced by Apple (and naturally, quite a few that are worse, but if you're after a 'better' machine you're going to choose the best parts).

What the fuck are you talking about? We're not comparing Mac OS to Windows, we're comparing Macs ro PCs. You can put any OS you like on PC.
im half-sure that Nintendo work on Macs, and Halo was originally designed for Mac i believe.... before mr. microsoft stuck his oar in
and about hardware, every little crap shop makes and sells PC parts. because apple only make Macs and co they are of a very high quality. ive been through countless cheap TFT monitors just to find dead pixel heaven, even my ex-top of the line laptop has dead pixels. i have yet to see a mac with scratches or low-quality hardware built into them. you buy a mac, everything works perfectly with it.
so IE sucks because its so weak but Windows dosnt? although Windows is crap too? if windows is crap why not move to Linux?
i cant believe this arguing thing actually works... TOASTERS ARE BETTER THAN MICROWAVES! DOGS ARE BETTER THAN CATS!
Yeah, you can argue for anything. It's brilliant. You know, parrots would be much better as presidents, because at least you know where they stand on all their policies.
"and Halo was originally designed for Mac i believe"
Kind of way off there. Halo was intended to be a MMO(Massive Multi Online) FPS much like planetside, developed by Bungie for the PC, that was then going to be ported over to the Mac, but those plans were killed when M$ bought Bungie. Then they turned it into what it is today, your everyday average FPS with pretty graphics, and a friggin' huge hype machine. Greatest game ever my ass.
lol, i wuv windows. I hacked into my xbox with splinter cell and a game save and i was able to stick a free version of windows on it.Im currently trying to stick tgf on it too.
