Gates doesn't have to worry as much about apple becasue Windows 7 has taken away apples ability to mock windows. Also, apple is tending to focusing on products that mircosoft is just starting to get into.
 
"funny how this article is abouit us commenting on apple. yet you turn around and yell at us like a prepubesent girl. and BTW i have a hexacore custom biult intel machine for just under $3500. and im a new york persecutior."

LOL, You'd think a N.Y. Prosecutor would have passed English 101.
 
[citation][nom]Fuck Windows[/nom]Fuck you faggots. I bet you wish you could afford one. Have fun playing with your shitty netbooks that you claim are more "practical." You microsoft douchebags are all the same. Just keep buttfucking each other and keep your ignorant comments to yourselves.[/citation]

Nice to see a classy Apple Zealot posting. You might want to un-bunch your panties.
 
[citation][nom]onekill[/nom]Lol, octo core mac pro with 16GB ram and 2 (yes 2) 285's SLIed, you people need to find out what a real computer is =)[/citation]

It was my understanding that OSX didn't support SLI. Things might have changed overnight and there is a Geforce 285 available for the Mac Pro and the Mac Pro does have 3 PCI-E 2.0 slots capable of running most if not all of today's 16x video cards, I just don't think you can run 2 285's sli in a Mac without Windows.

No, you'd just look more stupid to the rest of the world than you already do.
Now, if Steve Ballmer were President of the USA that would be...ugh...here comes an Americanism... "awesome". You'd still look stupid, but at least you'd have a seriously funny clown as Master of Ceremonies.

Correct. Neither does the MacPro motherboard. Still, SLi...really? Why? My MacPro with a 285 can play 99% of PC games maxed out without dropping below 35-40 fps Most average much higher. The only game it struggles with is Crysis, but then so do most generic PC's. Crysis is, IMHO, tosh, anyway.
 
It reminds me when the thin macbook came out (the air I think). Steve Wasniak made similar comments about it. He thought it looked pretty cool, but given the lack of processing power and storage, he couldn't really figure out why he'd use it.
 
I love how Bill always is cordial and respectful in talk about Apple where as Jobs is always condescending and pompous in his talk about... well, anything.

Sure.. but I can get a PC to perform just as well or better for under a grand. How much was that MacPro?

 
[citation][nom]Pyroflea[/nom]I've flown overseas before, took about 15 hours from Vancouver to Hong Kong. I'd like to see the iPad last 2/3 of that flight.[/citation]

And your point is...?

What a bunch of jealous windoze farts. Voting negative because some expresses they like the ipad....

If you can get a PC that is built like a brick shit-house, can run Mac OS X Snow Leopard legally, Windows 7 Ultimate 64Bit and Linux you have a point. If not...
 
[citation][nom]qwoz[/nom]Gates is just a classy dude. I can't remember hearing him ever bashing any competitor, unlike jobs. Proud to be a PC.[/citation]
I hate reading ignorant comments like this. Try crawling out of your shell or use google (or Bing if you're such a Microsoft loyalist) and see for yourself. I'll impart this bit of wisdom to you... "ALL COMPANIES ARE THE SAME AND THEY ALL BASH COMPETITION." Bill Gates isn't any different.

You missed the irony of qwoz's comment. It's precisely because he thinks Bill gates is a classy dude that he's pro Windows PC's. Now do you get it?

Wait a minute... because Apple does not allow me to run OS X on my machine, that's my fault? Oh it's capable of legally running it, the ONLY limitation is the company that produces OS X. Not the software, not the hardware... Linux and MS don't impose those limitations. Pat yourself on the back for that...
 
[citation][nom]back_by_demand[/nom]Since when did legal ever stop someone doing things on a PC.Once you level the playing field and say that PCs and Macs can both run OSX you only have the hardware for comparison and the exact same componants used cost 50% more on a Mac than the PC.Why is that something for Mac users to crow about?Why not be happy to use OSX, and install it on a PC, then use the money you saved to do something constructive.And before people say that Macs look better with all the white, aluminium and glass, well, you cant buy aluminium cases for PCs can you... ( / sarcasm)[/citation]

I run windows xp on my macbook. It runs quite well and better than most windows only laptops. And lets not forget the sexy smooth design of the macbook that blows all pc laptops away....
(bait bait...)
