"I've changed my mind"

Just a quick apology.

I've changed my mind about mac's. They're really not as bad as I thought, and well, they're actually the greatest invention I've ever had the privilege to touch.

Yes, it was wrong of me to be so judgemental without -ever- using a mac beforehand... so I apologise. I should never have been so close-minded and quick to judge.

I guess, you know.. I've just been so biased, basing my judgements on my own false misconceptions when in all honesty, Mac's are so useful, and hell, I think in some ways they're better than PC's. *coughs and splutters*

So yes, I'm sorry. They're actually -quite good-.

lol 0wn3d!

Indeed anything pre G5 is a waste of plastic!;)

**returns to swearing at his laptop - damn 3vi1 things!**

And for the record, Macs really are a waste of good plastic.

Great, that's the last time I leave anything logged on at someone else's house.

I'm just disappointed anyone would bother with this quite frankly.

But Macs were never designed to be Gaming machines.

Funny enough though, The processor in the next gen XBox will be based on the same IBM produced G5 processor.

Bad for gaming and good for everything else?

Ok, I wont tell you...

Actually...

I will...

Getting a 23" one!;)

Where did this come from?!

For your average user who doesn't play games but just surfs the web and types letters, people who buy Celerons from Dell in other words, would be better off with a Mac. They just don't have a cheap enough one really. Pity that.

OS X is the best operating system I've ever used. In fact if it wasn't for playing games and having a few development environments for the PC, along with overclocking I suppose, I would own a Mac. Next laptop will probably be a Powerbook at that.

Please tell me it's not one of the new aluminium screens ...

If it is I may have to kill you and steal it.

It would be so easy to gloat and say "I told you so", but instead I'd like to applaud Rob for having the balls to admit it - good man!

OS X really is in a different league to OS 9 - built completely new from the ground up and being improved on with each new update.
