How is the view from atop that very high horse?

Would it help if I said that white computers are more uptight and neurotic?

The term you're looking for, I believe, is 'overanalyzing.' My car is black, and if I say that I don't like that it leaks coolant all the time, I suppose that makes me a racist too, right? Shame on me, another ignorant white boy puttin' the black car down.

In any case, I really like my black MacBook. Especially with AS5 reapplied, because it's been consistently 5-10 degrees cooler at idle...

That's just rubbish - De**'s come in in black cases and they are nothing to shout about.

Well, nobody will wear pricey undergarments if you aren't already expecting someone to see them... :rolleyes:

Macworld tested the 2Ghz white MB against the 2Ghz Blackbook, and the Blackbook was slightly slower than the 2Ghz white MB:eek:

They couldn't figure out why, but later found out it was the HD of the Blackbook.

i like the comment at the end of the article that spreading peanut butter over your motherboard also keeps it running fast (or fat) :p

My black Macbook always goes to sleep on me. It wont work for more than a hour, at which time it gets very hot. ANd it has a serious whine to it.

Is there a firmware upgrade to make my black macbook act white?

:D I missed that.

It's only a matter of time until someone says "Everytime I leave my black macbook in the room alone, I come back and somethings missing"

This thread should probably be closed.

I think that it should as per the comments that have been made. :(

That is not the point that DMPDX was trying to make oldnavy1918. DMPDX was just referring to people making posts that he/she found to be racist. :o

Sharing a real reason why you like your new black MacBook is fine. :o :)
