New MacBook Air (Read 782 times)


Imminent Catastrophe

     

    Except, that I in no way suggested the use of Windows. I would suggest Linux, since it is easier and faster than OS X. The only time I use a Mac is at work and that was because they gave me the computer.

    How did Windows get into this discussion? 

    Here's the thing. I've worked with Linux. What a PITA. Yes, it works, after hours and hours and hours of work. I'm not a techie and don't have the time or inclination to mess with that, especially if all I want to do is get on the web, work with some images (occasional Photoshop), and run a couple of Windows apps. Which is probably true of most consumers, who aren't going to write unix code just to listen to Miley Cyrus.

     

    Anyway, I was hoping this would not turn into a pro/con Apple thread.

      Yeah, but it is impossible for a pro apple thread not to turn into a pro/con apple thread.  Some kinda internet law or something.

        LOL @ pledging allegiance to any platform.

          Well, sir, with Apple, you can use any software platform.

            I like it. Still confused by why they put that tablet out not long ago.

              Wall St. isn't. The stock has skyrocketed since then.

                  There.  The Windows/Mac debate is now complete.

                    I will see your emacs and raise you a vi.
