He came up with this
Damn, I wish I could play games, I really do.
I didn’t buy my computer to pwn noobs at CS, I have a PC for that. I'm glad however you proved my point that PC users ONLY care about games. As 90% of your rant is about "Macs can't play games."
People don't spend $2000 on an apple computer so that they can play pointless fictional games. They purchase them to get work done.
The entire arguement was about how the kid could raise his fps for games. Hence completely nullifying most of your lame arguement.
But I will continue on and critisize the rest of your post.
Not only do we have boot camp, but also if that's not enough, you can use the virtualization parallels over boot camp if you wish. Which will play 100% of any windows game. And will run it better.
If you had read my entire post instead of skimming the first couple of sentences, you would've realised that no mac that bootcamp is compatible with can run games anywhere close to as well as a PC made for gaming. The fact that the only apples that are compatible with bootcamp have either integrated or low-end graphics cards renders your claim false.
Let's compare monitors for gaming. Our 30" > ANY windows based company monitor. They stretch their things out of proportion, so the windows, the tool bar everything is just stretched and blurry. On the ACD everything is 100% normal size and not out of proportion.
LOL. All monitors are compatible with one another. They all use either DVI or VGA connections. There is no difference between an Apple monitor and a "windows" monitor with similar specs, besides the jacked up price of an apple for the name.
The Mac is used to do PROFESSIONAL work. Perhaps you will learn that when you grow up. When you REALLY get into music and that type of industry, you will realize that you wish you had a Mac, not a machine to waste time playing games. I'm not saying games are always stupid. But I would NEVER by a computer that would play games, and not do pro work efficiently.
When I grow up? Haven't you said in some other threads you are 14? Last time I checked, 14 years old isn't grown up and is barely even teenaged. I'm sure you are by no means professional nor doing professional work so you are basically just making that statement based on media. Null arguement from your position tbh.
Anyways, a gaming rig is made for pure power. That same power that is advertised in "pro" computers for "pro" work. If you are that stupid to think that computer hardware is gaming/"pro" work/ casual, you completely have ruined any credibility you had. A computer with tons of power marketed for gaming can do "pro" work just as well as a similar computer marketed for "pro" work. They both have tons of processing and graphics processing power to be suitable for both situations.
Basically: A computer that is made for gaming can easily run "pro" software extremely well
I have $6 000 in pro apps from apple. (90GB worth) and it's only 6 programs. DVD Studio Pro 4, Motion 2, Soundtrack Pro, Final Cut Pro 5, Aperture & Logic Pro 7. I love them to death and I would like to see you run those on a PC.
I am not familiar with these programs because I don't care to edit media, but if they are compatible with PCs, then an equally powered PC run them just the same as your Mac. An equally priced PC will run it better since you get a lot more power for the money with a PC if you build it yourself.
So, because we can run anything windows can, Mac is better. A lot of professionals only buy Macs for that fact that all those programs are available for our OS. And then others buy them for there look, and others buy them because they are simple and the work.
My previous statements provide a suitable rebuttal to this. Pretty much an equal powered PC will run the program exactly the same as long as you are not a ****ing ******* and know how to keep your computer clean of crap.
The only true difference that causes such a difference in performance of PCs and Macs is that Macs are less prone to viruses due to the fact most viruses/spyware/adware are programmed to work with Windows and not OSX. Load up bootcamp and Windows, go on the internet unprotected, surf for porn, and you will find your beloved Mac is slow as the average idiot's unprotected PC.

Purely opinion, null. Also since it is very easily to modify the interface of Windows, then your distaste is matched with equal lasiness to change it.
I have had my computer for 4 years, it only has 512 MB ram at 700MHz and my dad has had his Acer for 1 year, with 2GB ram at 2.0 GHz. His computer has had to be repaired 3 times, it's slower then mine and has already crashed before. Mine has not ONCE had a problem. It's never frozen up on me, never had to bring it in and it still runs well WITH all of those programs above, along with Adobe Creative Suite 2, Dreamweaver, Fireworks, Flash, Office 2004, iLife '06, iWork '06.
So all in all, when you want to grow up, and be serious get a Mac.
kthx4itbai
Again, my previous statements provide a suitable rebuttal for this too. Also, I should mention that Acer is generally a poor company to being with. They cut corners when making components and when they build computers. Your dad ****ed up by buying the computer in the first place. He should've done his research and found that Acer makes terrible quality products.
