"Go to Dell!"
Yeah, it's useless, but good for a laugh. But then I heard the comeback:
"Been there, didn't like the way your mom ran the place."

I'm not sure that I understand your complaint. Does it have something to do with the comments made at the Keynote yesterday?

Oh! No complaint, or even a real point.
Just thought I'd share it.
I'm waiting to use it on another Mac user (in jest) in the presence of a Dell user.
Everybody's too serious! We need to get silly sometimes!

I agree with you Shadowfax, a PC is not bad. It's what Microsoft and Bill Gates has done to the PC that I dislike. It's very annoying to use, always thinking that it knows what you want to do!. I love the intuivitveness of Mac!

You could always pay a company a large sum of money to purchase every xBox in the world. Microsoft loses well over 6 digits right there. http://www.thetechpub.com/phpBB2/images/smiles/icon_twisted.gif
Of course, you could also go back to Gatelaid's version of the iMac G4 and make a real challenge: Find something about Gateway's version of the iMac that looks nice... http://www.thetechpub.com/phpBB2/images/smiles/icon_twisted.gif http://www.thetechpub.com/phpBB2/images/smiles/new_snipersmilie.gif

I'll probably get flamed for this, but...:rolleyes:
I don't think peecees themselves are the enemy, personally. I started on an XT that my dad bought in 1986, and I had a lot of fun with DOS games back in the day. These days I use peecees for Linux only: Manrake & Debian are very nice ;)
M$ itself can drop dead. I think they are incapable of playing fair and competing honestly in the industry. Like some big kid on a basketball court who ties everyones shoe laces together and trips them, then brags about what a great player he is. :rolleyes:
I always say "Go to hell (http://www.microsoft.com)"

I always say "Go to hell (http://www.microsoft.com)" funny, you gave us that last bit already in your previous post, and most of us agreed with you and made the commentary that you have now posted again in your own words, worried about getting flamed. any reason?

That's just too easy. :p

Anyway's, it's Wintel Users (and lawyers) that are the enemy.
No need to send them to hell to punish them, they're already there.
Plus hell's probably decorated like a Gateway Country Store right now anyways. Hmmmm, sounds like a sadist's heaven. :rolleyes:

Realizing that you have a problem is half the battle. You are still a little young to have Alzheimers! Do you have a family history?
