Does anybody else hate those Mac and PC commercials? I'm not some huge defender of Windows, but, god, it's not that bad. But what really makes me angry about the commercials is that they say absolutely no facts in them! It's just like 'Vista is bad'. Anybody with me?

I despise Vists, so I just can't agree with you. It is a fact that Vista sucks.

That's true... I just wish, that Macs were as readily available through schools and stuff (well in New Jersey anyway) as PC's... I mean... The first computer I used was a mac back when I was like seven... But soon after, the school I went to got funding for computers, and all they got was PC's. It would be cool, if they showed us more about macs as well. I finally got to play around with a mac in my senior year, and liked it.... I'd like to get one of my own... My friend Tara found one in the trash, and I'm half tempted to buy it off her lol.

Does someone finding it in the TRASH make it sound like a good computer? Sure apples are ok... but ive only used them a few times. Where as ive been using Windows since it was 95 and i have had every version except Millenium and Vista. The thing about Windows is that everytime they upgrade they aim to make them more secuirty efficient.

Hey, My best friend's dad built a radio station, using only computers and things he found in the trash.. If you know what you're doing, computers from the trash aren't half bad.

Mac uses propaganda to advertise and it's bullshit. My school has a mac lab and a pc lab, pc's are way better in my opinion. The only reason apple is even selling any computers is because they made the ipod, without the ipod they would have lost the company.
