Yes your 100% right, Macs are shit and iPhones are far technically behind everything that is pc based, theyre all just overpriced and totally rubbish
and Im thinking of trading in my Macbook Pro and iPhone 3Gs now you have said that actually as im fed up of having machines that can actually do a job
Id much rather have something cheaper that breaks all the time

Because Bill Gates has warped everyones minds and managed to get a massive market share of personal computers in the late 80's > 90's
Nomatter what anyone says I couldnt do my job on a pc and thats a fact, they stutter, freeze and throw a hissy fit when you want them to perform, everything is so fucking long winded on a pc, wheras on a mac you just plug things in and play rather than installing tons of shit
Oh and you dont get virus's

Like I said, no one gives a shit about making a virus for macs. They are irrelevant.
You're saying that Bill Gates did whatever he did...I would call that genius, as opposed to Jobs, who was a looser at that time. Also, you're implying that over 90% of the people on this planet are/were stupid. That's a mac snob statement to me. That's why everyone hates you.
Also, about "you just plug things in and play"...what exactly do you play? You have a selection of about 30 programs and games to choose from.
A PC behaves like the person who uses it. I know many people (including me) that use the same Win installation for years, without the need to reinstall or something. And I do many things on my PC, including hosting a website & stuff.
And I ask again...why do you people, with your flawless os, need a macfixit.com website? Just visit it, if you didn't already.

It is clear that the virus/worm propagation is bigger if you have more targets, dirtchamber has a very good point. It has nothing to do with how good the OS is, because EVERY OS has bugs/leaks etc. (you can read everything on the patches they give out every month).

one of the main reasons for hackers to create virusses is to prove it can be done. if mac is so snobbish about its safety than that should only give only more incentives to break it, right?

i would actually consider moving if the price was comparable. but it isnt. i can run 30 tracks of 24bit 48khz audio simultaneously with VSTs like nexus (a major fucking cpu hog) with not one glitch. why? cos i configured my system perfectly. its not that powerful, asus notebook, core duo 2 2.4g, 2gb ram + vista, lowest latency settings on my edirol fa-101. and i paid fuck all for it. the equivalent priced mac i would have to settle for a 13 inch fucking screen, and theres no way id be able to do the same.
so yes, ofcourse if your willing to throw a few thousand quid at a setup ull get that performance, but for everyday people its irrelevant. maybe one day ill be able to afford to experiment with different platforms. for 99% of the population its not a good option. dont give me that stability shit, if liams laptops can crash yours can crash doing your work just as well.

Nope because Windows is a flawed OS and is easy to hack into, even children hackers can write hacks on Windows
As for 30 programs and games.. who the fuck buys a computer for games? Im on about production and using a computer for work, not for geeking off to, I use my Mac as a graphic designer and its a fact, yes fact that a pc cannot do the job i want it to
Theres no argument, Pcs
