July 29, 200917 yr I'm about to be given one of these with a new job, but am I as well telling them I want a regular PC laptop instead? I've little to arse all experience with a mac, though the shiny gayness of it does appeal on some strange level.

I reckon you should get it just to look like you're down with the kids!
July 29, 200917 yr Author get one it'll save you wearing the 'i am gay' badge Touche! I don't need the badge, my handlebar moustache and leather hotpants are enough.
July 29, 200917 yr Are you crazy? Honestly Macs shit all over PC's. You can't pick up virus's for a start....
July 29, 200917 yr Are you crazy? Honestly Macs shit all over PC's. You can't pick up virus's for a start.... Can you elaborate on that? Or did you hear it from a bloke in the pub.
July 29, 200917 yr Author Can you elaborate on that? Or did you hear it from a bloke in the pub. Thats my thoughts exactly, people keep telling how amazing Macs are but i'm yet to understand it. Granted Apple's marketing and the products look great, but is there much else to them?
July 29, 200917 yr Thats my thoughts exactly, people keep telling how amazing Macs are but i'm yet to understand it. Granted Apple's marketing and the products look great, but is there much else to them? I was commenting on the "can't pick up viruses bit". I was hoping for a technical explanation.
July 29, 200917 yr whatever, somebody needs to tell norton they're wasting their time http://shop.symantecstore.com/DRHM/servlet...s=1248864851487
July 31, 200917 yr Are you crazy? Honestly Macs shit all over PC's. You can't pick up virus's for a start.... Bit blunter than Carlos, but, "Wanna bet on it?" Don't believe what you hear/read.
August 4, 200917 yr I was wrong is saying they can't lifted from somewhere else all known viruses are written for the MS-DOS/Windows NT kernel. Not for the Mac OS X UNIX kernel. A mac can get a virus if one was made for it. But so far a mac DOESN'T get viruses and spyware simply because viruses and spyware don't work on a mac. I've got a macbook pro through work. Once you own a macbook you never go back. In my opinion anyway.
August 4, 200917 yr Once you own a macbook you never go back. In my opinion anyway. Would agree fully with that. I've never had the misfortune of working on a PC, so don't know what I'm missing/gaining. Can only comment on people who have switched to Mac - all have said they wouldn't go back.

August 4, 200917 yr Alternatively (and surely obviously) install windows on your macbook.......Clicky!!
August 12, 200917 yr or put a MAC OS on a windows box by using PearPC. From straiht to gay and back no problem.

Can only comment on people who have switched to Mac - all have said they wouldn't go back. Had it for a week and a half now, and I've got to say its a joy to use. No where near as difficult to make the change from pc to mac as i thought. Seem to be much more intuitive.

August 14, 200917 yr Fair comments, As a web designer, I've got virtual machine installed to combat ie6 and so on. I still think WW do a great job in keeping up though. For me though, PC's are a pain in the arse, where as Macbook's are like the pain in the arse you wish you had. If that makes sense, probably not, super whites 1 - 0 bruce's babe's. My prediction with k.davies getting an early first half header.
