Macintosh

An operating system created by Apple, Inc. Has a very large fan base but an even larger hater group, mainly because it's basically the same as a Windows computer, except for it's "pretty" graphics, which frankly, isn't worth the extra hundreds of dollars.

Rick: Hey, what operating system do you use?

Gregory: Uh...uhm..oh yeah, a Macintosh!

Rick: Whats the point? Why not get a Windows for 300 dollars less?

Gregory: Because Mac is better!

Rick: They're exactly the same. Trust me, I have both. I wish I never bought the Mac.

Gregory: Well...it looks pretty!

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."

macintosh

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.
