Mac = bottled water
Windows = bottled water backwash
Linux = tap water

congrats, you bought into the hype!
The message is clear: Bottled water is "good" water, as opposed to that
nasty, unsafe stuff that comes out of the tap. But in most cases tap water
adheres to stricter purity standards than bottled water
now go back to your over priced PC with the nice white glossy finish. and ill go back to my overclocked PC thats half the price and has piano black finish.
I agree. And what's worse is that Microsoft actually paid some advertising company to produce these Ad's... Yeah, it's exactly like saying 'We make a flawed product that runs on cheap plasticky computers - buy a PC!'
yeah cheap chinese plasticy computers... Macs... (cheap for apple to manufacture and produce, but not for the consumer)
BTW PC's come in all shapes sizes and materials, you can get full aluminum chassis or even lexan cases, what about macs? cheap plastic.
my laptop comes in a light weigh carbon composite material (not woven carbon fiber but another type of carbon fiber)
This thread is hilarious. I think most of us agree that the car analogies are too ridiculous to continue being used, so there's got to be a more apt comparison between PCs and Macs that makes a lot more sense.
ive already proven in 2 diffrent threads that car analogies are totally off when it comes to computers becuase a Core2duo 2.66GHz is the exact same as another core2duo at 2.66GHz (they will both have the exact same MIPs and MFLOPS as another 2.66GHz)
however they do overclock diffrently but that doesnt count.
a Jag will not have the same V6 as a ford even if the BLOCK is the same, the timing components, valves, pistons, etc are all diffrent with a diffrent output in HP and torque.
Yeah but they all do the same bloody thing, get you from point A to B. You also pay for the Mercedes brand premium. Why do you think Mercedes charges more for their cars than Lexus, Infiniti, Acura, etc. Apple has a higher brand than all those PC companies, studies also show Apple has the highest satisfaction rates in the industry while the rates for the PC companies are dropping through the toilet because they can't match the experience Apple provides. Apple also differentiates themselves through their superior OS and software solutions. What software solutions does HP and Dell develop? When you add in all that I'm willing to pay a premium to buy from Apple because at the end of the day I care about how satisfied I'll be about my purchase and not how cheap the computer is.
im sorry a Hyundai Genesis Sedan 4.6L V8 will roast a C300 mercedes for CHEAPER, will have MORE options, LONGER warranty, MORE power (375HP Vs 228HP), more space inside (a genesis is in the same weight and size category as an E class) with the leather feeling exacaly the same.
apple would be closer to VW, looks nice, crappy horse power, over priced, maintainence is twice as much (oilchanges are like $120 CAD vs $30) cant handle worth crap, only a brand name to protect their "MEXICAN" made cars (apple = chinese made computers by Hon Hai)
i would take an Infinity over a VW any day.
Exactly...
So, Mac's are actually PC's.
It's not a Kia vs Merc issue.
PC's and Mac's are the same components, just with a different body kit.
That's the truth.
They just run a different OS.
the OS in regards to cars would only be location of your HVAC controls, headlight switch, radio look and feel.
both Windows, OSX and linux will allow you to
Check your email (drive to work)
chat on IM (talk to people on the phone via bluetooth)
watch youtube (watch movies on the nav screen)
turn on and off the computer (push button engine start/stop)
delete porn (haul dead bodies in the trunk)
the OS's do the same function but just diffrently
