True, Macs are way better, but the cost is just ---> <---

I AGREEEEEEEEE

I have a Mac, but I prefer Windows for programming.

sanddude · 2010-12-10 08:34:41

I was on the Mac side until Windows 7 came out.

Windows 7 is so good, I switched sides on OS's.

I can make a list:

1. Macs are less of a target for viruses.
2. Macs have better graphics.
3. Macs freeze less often, and when they do, they often recover quickly.
4. Apple provides better customer service.
5. Macs have Dashboard, iMovie, Photo Booth, and GarageBand. 'Nuff said.

6. Easy window switching
7. Cool symbol: 

Plus in my opinion most macs have better graphics than windows and are more fun to draw on big_smile

Y'know, digitally.

1. Yes
2. No, it is actually the opposite.
3. Depends on which Windows version you compare OSX to.
4. Sadly, yes.
5. Yes, but Windows has Desktop Widgets, Movie Maker, and Paint/Photo Viewer.

6. Macs can open dmg files.
7. Macs can also open exe files (many people think not)
5.5-Macs also have Exposé.
8-infinity-Macs have built in games, Terminal!!!!!! emacs FTW!

7. Really? How? I need to open exe files sometimes.
5.5. Well, Vista (and possibly Windows 7) have their own version too, so it's not much of an arguing point.

2. Well, Macs sure look better than Vista computers do.
4. Whataya mean by "sadly"?
5. Dashboard= Macs version of Widgets, only Dashboard doesn't just pop up and annoy you every time you start up (I used to have Vista, I know what I'm talking about).
iPhoto= Mac version of Photo Viewer
iMovie= Mac version of Movie Maker
Paint is probably the only thing that I miss from Windows, but I use GIMP and Corel Painter Essentials 4, so I'm okay without it.

gbear605 · 2010-12-11 09:12:12

YOU CAN RUN WINDOWS ON A MAC, NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUND

'Nuff said.

2. YOU COULDN'T BE ANY MORE WRONG.
4. I mean that I don't like that it is true.
5. Widgets doesn't annoy anyone! I don't even use Paint anymore. I use GIMP.

7. It's a secret... I might reveal it... It's really cool, I got so many things running on my mac and I don't have to use VM, but some of the exes don't work...

I hate macs. Theyre dirrerant and that bothers me.

kayybee · 2010-12-11 18:32:38

@I hate windows. They're dirrerant and that bothers me. I don't know what dirrerant is though...

ScratchReallyROCKS · 2010-12-11 18:38:13

Here's my main point: On Macs, it is much easier (not to mention faster) to find what you're looking for, and they just look a whole lot better.

Completely untrue. You've never heard of a Hackintosh?

Actually, it's just against the Mac OS X EULA, not the law.

Au contraire. You can open DMGs on Windows by getting 7-zip, opening the DMG file with it, and then opening the file with the extension "hfs" inside the DMG with 7-zip.

I used one for ~3 years. It was dine, but not customizable enough for me. Linux ftw.

kayybee · 2010-12-11 19:58:37

Ah! SSSS! Please delete it! Keep the secret between the knowledgeable people of the nonwindows!

urhungry · 2010-12-11 20:18:31

I use the thing that lets you run an exe in Linux. None of my games work though....
