macintosh

A computer owned by 1 out of every 1000 computer users. Made to look "pretty" by design, but really has no functionality other than graphic & video editing equipment. Cannot run much of anything, especially no decent games or software.

"Before you give me any further computer instruction, please take note that I have a Macintosh, so in essence, I can probably do nothing you intend on telling me to do."

1. An expensive chunk of shiny metal and plastic.
2. An expensive paperweight

You paid $3000 for a Macintosh? I built a PC for $800 that can kick its ass and it STILL looks better.

Macintosh

Starting in 1984 with Apple's Macintosh 128k, the Macintosh computers from Apple are very successful. Many things were changed, however; the CPU was from Motorola's 680xx to IBM's PowerPC to the now current Intel. The Macintoshes use a proprietary OS called Mac OS, which cannot be installed onto a regular computer due to Apple restricting it.

Macintosh computers, in my opinion, are well made.

macintosh

Computers for people who do not understand computing.

An expensive brand of computers with proprietary hardware and software, which is incompatible with almost everything that is not made by Apple.

Apple's marketing relies heavily on claiming superiority over non Apple computers.

A macintosh is not the Ferrari of the computer world, it is the lamborghini.

Sure its pretty and stupidly expensive, but it can't perform at the track like a real performance car (computer).
