Members Anderton Posted November 4, 2007 Members Share Posted November 4, 2007 Hmm...I use some kind of operating system and computer here. Let me see what kind it is... Okay, it has folders where you can stuff files, a desktop, some slots for cards, USB and Firewire ports, internal audio, ethernet, the ability to search for files, a built-in web browser, a built-in media player that lets you categorize/sort music and videos, a little accessory program for writing text, another for viewing pictures, and a way to revert back to a previous version of the system. So I guess it's OBVIOUS which computer I'm talking about!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Anderton Posted November 4, 2007 Members Share Posted November 4, 2007 Really? Geee. I wonder how many Windos users really "choose" Windows rather than having it shoved on them? I chose the software I wanted to use. Some runs only on Windows, some only on the Mac. So I had BOTH computers "shoved" on me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members alphajerk Posted November 4, 2007 Members Share Posted November 4, 2007 I did say "operating system and computer"... i meant an OS shouldnt have " the ability to search for files, a built-in web browser, a built-in media player that lets you categorize/sort music and videos, a little accessory program for writing text, another for viewing pictures, and a way to revert back to a previous version of the system." well maybe the last one, but i never trust that method unless its a one time thing with a bad driver install.

Members alphajerk Posted November 5, 2007 Members Share Posted November 5, 2007 :deadhorse: When they see the price of a Mac they often choose to go PC... except once you build a comparable PC, it costs the same as a mac really... its just more flexible and cheaper in the long run upgrading it.

Members WynnD Posted November 6, 2007 Members Share Posted November 6, 2007 OK, I'll just take the video and run it on my BeOS machine. No one ever writes a virus for that OS. (See BeOS jokes in the archive at Userfriendly.org.) Got a laptop and a desktop that are running BeOS. Not quite as stable as OS-X but much faster!!!!!!!!!! And the first OS to allow throwing an active, running program into another active, running program on the fly. (1995) OS-X was the second OS to allow that. (2002?) That's nearly 2 generations ahead of everyone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
