What up with Sony?

 

[Hummer]

If it runs windows, it's a PC.

 

[SkyBell]

They're being Sony...

 

[Macmadant]

they wish they could have OSX on their PCs, but were i forced to buy a PC at gun point, it would be a vaio

If it runs windows, it's a PC.

I know 'and I'm a PC too' is in the ads, but a mac is not a PC in the acknowledged sense of the word. Otherwise I can't go around saying PCs suck. So there.

 

[Macmadant]

If it runs windows, it's a PC.

but what about those dirty, sick people who run windows on a mac, is it a PC or a Mac

i wonder what should we call a computer with Linux?

 

[dpaanlka]

but what about those dirty, sick people who run windows on a mac, is it a PC or a Mac

well whatever it is, it's not a third category

 

[clevin]

well, apple give user this option, and I believe there is big market there, and I wouldn't use those words.

 

[backsidetailsli]

seems like they dont want to be left out

 

[KingYaba]

Those Vaios look like Macbooks...

Always immitated, never duplicated (Drudge)

Another bit of rubbish from Sony. Keep it up! I get my entertainment from knowing they will never make a better minidisc player than the MZ-R91 or a better console than the PS1.

 

[Grakkle]

Dumb. But if I wanted a PC notebook I would get a Vaio - they are by far the best looking as far as PCs go.

They're just Wac.

Here's a giant picture of a VAIO in case anyone cares: SONY VAIO

I never could figure out why PC laptops always have those hooks on the screen bezel.

 

[apfhex]

is it a PC or a Mac

It's both. Maybe a Pac, or Mapc, or......

"I'm a VAIO" is stupid, but the girl they use is really cute... at least at 120 pixels tall.

 

[MACDRIVE]

Can somone please tell me why they put the trackpad on the left side?!?!

 

[tech4all]

That was stupid, unoriginal, and as far as I know a Vaio is a PC.

And what's up this?:

The non-pc pc

They must really want to confuse people.

 

[mad jew]

Must. Stop. Pinching. VAIO's. Arse.

Sony and Apple actually have a pretty good history of working together. The original Powerbook was a partial Sony creation and they manufactured a lot of parts for Macs over many years. As of late Sony's leadership has been increasingly arrogant. Just look at their comments on the PS3. Their newest one was that the PS3 was going to teach its users/consumers "discipline." They're just being childish in general right now.

Pardon, what? I've already decided NOT to buy a PS3. Definitely getting the new Wii. Shame, as I love the Final Fantasy games.

I squeezed VAOI's butt 7 times and the other two gents only got 1 squeeze a piece from me... although i was tempted to squeeze PC's butt twice..

For ergonomics while typing? I dunno. Maybe to avoid brushing it while typing...

Finally someone answers the question; only it wasn't an answer, but more spam comming out of the MJ spam factory.

More eronomic? My right hand just natually falls to the middle of this PowerBook with its trackpad in the center. I would not buy a laptop of any brand that had the frigging track pad on the left side.

I'm going to do a Google search about left side trackpads, and when I find the answer, I will proclaim myself as the smartest member of MacRumors bar none.

EDIT:

After Google search:

Apparently I'm not the only one that thinks the trackpad on the left side is screwy:

a slim design and five hip new colours to choose fro

Holy crap! They invented 5 NEW COLOURS?!

That alone should be reason enough to buy these computers, when was the last time a new colour was invented?!

Wow.
