Used to think Macs were for dumb people who were afraid of a DOS prompt

[windowsblows]

Why non of you ever told me how incredible Macs are is just plain wrong. None of you ever told me that my life would change forever.

That I wouldn't have to spend my life waiting for my machine to boot.
That Unix is under the hood!!!
That I wouldn't have to run Anti Virus programs which hog all my resources.
That I could use RapidWeaver.
That I wouldn't have to reboot every other day.
That I would be more productive than ever.
That Macs SCREAM!!!!
That I could type at night and see my LIT keys.
That I wouldn't have to deal with registry files.
That I could... and the list is enormous.

Why none of you tied me to a tree and made me listen is flat out wrong. Didn't you're mothers ever teach you how to share? Bastards



P.S. For 20+ years I've steered as many as I could away from Macs. I used to say that "Macs were for dumb people who were afraid of a DOS prompt". What an Idiot I was... and for my sins, I'm sorry.

Thanks?

 

[Slowstick]

huh? We have always said that.

 

[Hellhammer]

You didn't ask

That's because we suck. Just wait until you find out about all the other stuff we haven't been telling you.

 

[gilkisson]

Say it with me:

"Hello, I'm a Mac..."

 

[GoCubsGo]

Yes you heard me right!

Did you also steer clear of spellcheck?

Oookaaaay.

So we Mac users suck, and thank you.

I was too busy rebooting to ask In all seriousness. I'm amazed that Apple hasn't taken over the PC market. I'm on 182 days without rebooting. Just the other day I realized that I still had Photoshop running with in another "Space" along with a browser with 12 tabs. My Macbook Pro just doesn't slow down!!!

Next to my Segway, I've never been so impressed. And yes, I've been told how incredible Macs were but was too stupid to listen.

We tried to tell you, but we've only been able to connect to the Exchange server for a few days now.

We tried to tell you,

You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink.

 

[Chundles]

You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink.

It's different with beer.

 

[zap2]

Yea, those who think like that most likely just haven't seen all the fact. OS X can be a powerful OS(terminal is highly scary if you don't know what you're doing...which I don't always)

 

[odej98]

Lmao

 

[thejadedmonkey]

Um... the only things you can't do with a PC are

That I wouldn't have to run Anti Virus programs which hog all my resources.
That I could use RapidWeaver.

Can we throw him back?

Well Played...

To the OP, yeah, we've all been there.

 

[jmann]

Welcome out of the darkness.

Well, not all of us...

 

[MWPULSE]

Say it with me:

"Hello, I'm a Mac..."

"--Mac has issued a salutation. Cancel or Allow?"

(Gawd, I love that one. It's my all-time fave Mac vs. PC ad. Sorry, couldn't resist.)

 

[gilkisson]

"--Mac has issued a salutation. Cancel or Allow?"

(Gawd, I love that one. It's my all-time fave Mac vs. PC ad. Sorry, couldn't resist.)

Oh yeah. I love the ending of that one even more:

"You are coming to a sad realization. Cancel or Allow?"

That ad sold a lot of Macs to a lot of irritated VistaVictims, I would suspect. heh.

Haven't you noted that the Apple has a bite?
You knew it was there, now you have given the bite.
