yup 17 days i top you.
Have you ever licked Steve Job's balloon knot? Until then, you ain't topping 17days.
Lmao. This should be an interesting thread. XD
If there has ever been a thread more suitable for this: :pop:, I haven't seen it.
Carry on.
Soon, the skies grew dark...
Balloon? WTF? That's not a color or style. Is that some Apple jargon or something?Quote:

Someone's challenging 17days for supremacy? Hang on, I'll get the popcorn!
You've not reached that critical point of "always talking about how Apple is the greatest" pain in the ass.Quote:

God those clamshell iBooks were shit, I'm so glad I forked out the extra dosh for the Lombard PowerBook back then.
Know what's better than the Iphone - a can on a string. More reliable too.

I owned a Mac before it was cool [/thread]
I feel like this should go down in a rap battle or something. Nevertheless, I don't see how 3 ancient ibooks can overcome the power of MY IPHONE MY IPHONE MY IPHONE
(or my Macbook Pro)
You know what's better than you? a lump of shit with a flag that says "The Jackal".Quote:

Yes it's Apple's fault.Quote:

Having the bonjour service thrown in is another needless pain in the ass, and then there's how every time you update anything, they opt you in to install what you don't have already.
So again, yes IT IS apple's fault their software is shit. Releasing bad software does not incite or inspire anybody to shift to buying their hardware, that's counterintuitive to their brand. Most people hate iTunes, but they tolerate it for their iPods.
More importantly and to the point though; You're honestly looking to refute a 'Maddox' article? Really?! :lol:
I have no idea what Maddox is...don't really care either.Quote:

Windows is by far not inferior, theirs literally thousands of things you can do on a PC you cannot on a Mac
There's barely any difference between the two. Windows has the developers & Microsoft has historically allowed free market competition push hardware development while reducing costs.Quote:

I would say Apple = Asus as far as how attractive and well built their machines are. Windows 7 & OSX bear little difference outside of available software & developers.
Believing that Apple 'Just works', and is 'Superior' for being 'Low level by design, to work with the hardware' is baseless fanboy rhetoric and a testament to fickle users effected by marketing.
HUH?!?
Dude we can get into all sorts in regards to programming, 3rd party support, hardware support, Networking support, gaming, Hosting, multimedia etc etc literally tons of things Windows can do that OSX won't or can't.
Due to the hostile enviroment of Apple with its closed of nature the development of that OS and its practicality in the real world is very limited compared to MS.
Feel free to clarify this statement with a list, I'm amused but how vague and open ended it is. Outside of seeing a few key infrastructures like MS .Net, I can't really fault Apple for anything in that respect. Your argument as I understand it is rooted on adoption and exploitation of platforms, rather than an actual indifference to progress on Apple's side of it.Quote:

lol okay a list;
Cannot search while indexing, Cannot exclude items from search index, Cannot calculate current/all size, Need I mention "Cut", cannot delete individual items from Bin, Folder merging easily, Resizing of window cannot be done on all border, Last program fails to close, No Stereo mixer, Creating text files from right click, Complete lack of DirectX support, Critial protection of user files or "hidden", Networking is completely crippled, Verification of Terminal restart command glitch, Ownership of various file sharing, limited network wake from sleep problems, albeit it doesnt work, Issues with moving files across various HDD, RAID ARRAY, Unmovable application bar, Nowhere near as much user GUI customization, Lack of proper navigation using just keyboard not including shortcuts, Dictation on Audio is not supported from the off, Use of CPU for graphics upto 32meg is loaded then if offloads onto GPU horrid, Windows cannot be moved by keyboard, worse font managment, No remote desktop, port access control, Host and Domain controls.
dude their is tons more, I got bored listing them. I grant some HAVE been resolved since my last encounter with a Mac but dude you have to admit it is limited comapred to PC.
I was going to get into the SNK developer tools and power networking which are things which the OSX has no handle on or even a decent subsitute for.
Linux is the best, end of.
:ok: I Agree w/ The Jackal :ok:
So aside from the GUI semantics, and the 'DirectX/Porprietary/Obvious' lack of support, you're saying their kernel's networking utilities are broken?Quote:

It's not really a point to make either way.
Judging by documentation, OSX is capable of mounting NFS shares, data exchange is simple, half the problems with permissions & file maintenance you describe can be piped into a simple to execute CLI commands natively using a Bourne shell.
I guess my point is, that windows can do everything too, differently and with more effort in some respects. For every problem in user-land you run into for OSX, you'll find the same in Windows.
Both are equal pieces of shit. Inert from deserving bashing or praise. It's a stalemate.
Linux/FreeBSD systems are the bleeding edge.
my god, I had totally forgotten about that site. *catches up*Quote:
