I get E.Mails and popup ads like that, but just ignore them. It seems like they would be able to recognise a Mac! :confused:

You'd think Microsoft dominated the operating system market or something...:rolleyes:

Did you click 'OK'? I think the result would be funny too.

Consider yourself lucky you didn't get the blue advertisement of death. Luckily Safari has a pop-up blocker for that exact purpose. http://www.thetechpub.com/phpBB2/images/smiles/new_snipersmilie.gif

I dont get any pop-ups anymore (thanks you Safari) :D , but I have seen advertisements like this on websites. I wonder how many people click on it. :D

Wouldn't it just tell you that you don't have a PC. Or just give weird results. Just putting so much bate on the web hoping to get a catch! :p

losers! as KC said, learn to use the popup blocker, keep yourself a spam account for email on like Yahoo or something that you give to trashé sites that will sell it to ad companies. i get 0 spam in my personal mail account, came close when my dip**** friend gave my address to some place, but i threatened to kick his arse if he did it again and was able to unsubscribe from the ads... and i haven't seen a popup on my mac since i bought it, except the one or 2 times i have used IE. why would you do that to yourself?

anyways, this ad is marginally funny, i guess, but it's so common. i saw them all the time when i was on a PC, before i started using moz.
