My View On Macs

sammy1 · Oct 30, 2004, 02:32 PM

I know everyone is going to yell at me for this but here I am going to say it:

"If a young teenager can't play Counterstike on a Mac it is worthless in their eyes."

So, why would you want to buy one? I think macs are overpriced and you can use a windows computer instead for quite a bit cheaper. If you are safe about what you download, and you don't use IE, why would you pay so much for a mac? I know some people like it more for the iMovie and all that stuff, if thats what its called, but is it really worth the extra money? You can do mostly all that stuff on a windows computer...

oh god...I hope you know what you've started here...it's a complete waste of time & energy trying to convince someone with your apparent attitude why others choose a Mac, so why bother...though I'm sure others will, and I can't wait to read it all...

Style. Class. Simplicity. Ease of use. Power. Bang for buck. Pure awesomeness. Need I say more?

BTW, I wouldn't start these kinds of threads in the future, it's just not a good idea.

If it ain't spam, it's flamebait -- yay.

If you only want a PC for games then you are probably better off with an inexpensive Windows. Maybe someday you will see the light.
