What is the stupidest thing (feel free to include more than one )
that a mac fanboy has said?

 

[ssddx]

no worse than what pc or windows fanboys have said over the same time frame...

 

[sixsamuraisoldier]

i take you to be a mac fanboy?
but, sad but true

 

[ssddx]

no. i roll windows & android.

if mac was the market leader and had all of the program support and was more open then perhaps i would use it however that is not the case. i'm not going to play favoritism here: i use whatever works best be it software or hardware.

-

i do not like apples stranglehold over itunes, the fact that they use old parts and charge 50%+ more and how many of their products like the iphone are not upgradeable.

this is why i do not use apple. personally i am rather impressed with their designs, how easy to use their devices are and at the battery life on their portable devices.

my ipod classic can run for 8 hours a day for about a week. i've seen for myself how good an iphones battery is and it is definitely superior to my android. this may be because the iphone cannot multitask (which is a negative) however the battery life is still noticible.

i think apple has alot of potential but it has made many wrong choices along the way.

 

[sixsamuraisoldier]

tis true...
but windows 7 is DEFINITELY an improvement
o, and mac copied their source code from freeBSD

 

[ssddx]

windows 7 may be an improvement but windows 8 is a total failure.

you act as if apple is the only one to copy ideas. its quite prevelant.

i really dont see any reason to continue this thread.

 

[sixsamuraisoldier]

true though, microsoft copied apple and i wholeheartedly agree that windows 8 is a FAIL (i never said that windows 8 was good, only windows 7)

 

[sixsamuraisoldier]

im a naruto fan also

 

[ssddx]

threads like this can often turn sour rather quick if many people start chiming in and i dont want that to happen which is why i said i'm done with it.

if you're interested in naruto and anime you may be interested in a few things...

I find its not what Mac fanboys say, but what they don't say (namely any objective reason why they believe its better). A brother of a friend of mine is pretty heavily into Apple products, and emphatically believes them to be top notch hardware and software despite not knowing what any of the stuff inside it is.
Apple has a good Industrial Design on their products, great advertising and a penchant for predicting/creating market trends and looking like industry leaders in the process. Then add the poster child Steve Jobs to the mix and you have yourself one of the greatest companies of all time.

Personal feeling toward them, they simply cater to an audience that isnt me. I want flexibility with the devices I use, and dont like to be contained within a certain ecosystem like you are with Apple products. That means I have to work harder to get what I want, but what I get is a better result. If someone was looking for an easy and quick way to use and manage their technology, Apple has got them covered.

Also, who hasn't copied Unix? Its pretty legendary as far as OS' go, the Linux Kernel was basically just lifted straight from Unix (to my knowledge).

[ssddx]

if you say it one more time i think we could consider it trolling and have you reported.

there is no need to keep on pushing the matter.

 

[sixsamuraisoldier]
