"Holy shit! All my Unix code runs like a Navajo on Mac OS X."
"I stopped using Windows because I needed a dual Xeon processor just to keep things smooth while I ran four anti-virus/spyware packages in the background, where as, at the moment, I don't have to worry about that with Mac OS X".

Let's compare Mac and Windows:
Pro Windows:
-Mac can't play 90% of games on the market
-Mac can't download 80% of programs on the internet
-Windows tend to be more powerful and have better graphics capabilities.
-Mac's are far over priced
Pro Mac:
-Nice user interface?
-No viruses? (not downloading gay porn helps, Windows users)
What do people actually do on a Mac?
Usually they surf the internet on their horribly laggy default web browser "Safari" because they have nothing else that they can do on their Mac.
The only reason they post these definitions on here is because they're pissed off that they spent to much money on a Mac, and they're trying to justify it.
Believe me, I can dual boot XP and OS X Leopard on my PC, and it is far over rated and shitty.

"Hey man! I just bought a $2000 Mac with Mac OS X! Am I cool yet?"
"No. You're still a fucking faggot. And Mac's suck"
**Kills self**

An OS with a linux core and a shiny, colorful interface. It cannot run 98% of the games out there, the processors used to be horribly slow compared to any contemporary PC, and once you buy a Mac, Apple owns your soul since every accessory you buy must be from them or licensed by them, and they are very VERY aware of this. Now that Apple finally became unstupid and switched to the Intel platform, the processors are as fast (or exactly the same) as modern PCs, it can play PC games with Bootcamp and a Windows install, but the hardware still isnt caught all up, still uses cheap integrated sound cards.
Laptop with a geforce 8600M GT graphics card, Core 2 Duo processor, 4 gigs of ram, and a 15" screen: $2,000 from Dell, $4,000 from Apple. The difference? An Apple sticker.
Are Macs more stable? Yes! Why? Because any accessory is made, written, and tested by one company, APPLE! Just try to load drivers for a standard USB device not made specifically for an Mac. Kext loading sucks compared to windows driver loading! Windows has the BSOD, but Mac has the Kernel Panic! Just as annoying and nowhere near as helpful, no error messages, no notes, just "Power off now."
Apple just released a pack of 11 security patches last week, so no OS is virus or hack proof. The next time a Macaholic tells you Mac OS never gets viruses, tell him it will because of him, hes making it more popular, so virus writers will go after the bigger targets.
Whats Mac OS good for? Pretentious graphic designers and people who dont want to mess with drivers, deep system tweaking, and games. The computer newbs wont be scared off by a Mac, and they can do almost any task they can think of with included (or sold by Aplle) software.
What are PCs good for? Playing high-end games, causing driver headaches, and having high customization. The more experienced will get more out of it, but a brave newb could figure it out eventually.
Linux is for a completely different market (none since its free) and for a completely different type of computer user. Its customizable as legos, still cant play real games (emulation isnt the same,) and can go into nuclear meltdown if you rename the wrong file.

I have an Insperon 1520 Hackintosh (look it up). It tri-boots XP, Vista, and Mac OS X Leopard. Mac OS is shiny, very responsive, and extremely stable. Vista with a few days of work is also very very shiny, very responsive, and extremely stable if you know anything about computers and can google well. However, you dont have to sell your soul to Microsoft to buy a PC, and you can play all those games.

The greatest operating system out there, but only for cool people with Apple's computers like the very cool new iMac or the powerbook G4.
Some people think that Macs can't do anything crappy peecees can do, but the truth is that it can do things peecees can do 100% better, plus more. Those people are total dickwads.

1. That treehouse is a bit Mac OS X.
2. Calm down you bipolar bitch. You can be so Mac OS X sometimes.

Mac OS X (n.)-
The best operating system. Ever. OS X is the future of operating systems, it's clean, elegant, easy to use, and most importantly - useful. The only reason that people don't use OS X is because they are too busy using their horrible Windows XP computers. Macs can do much more than Windows could ever do. They have built-in PDF software, so you don't have to download Adobe Acrobat, there are no viruses for Mac. By the way, I forgot to mention that you'll never need AIM again, say hello to iChat, which can do much more than AIM. Microsoft Office works on OS X, better than on Windows. Updating your software is easy, just go to Software Update, conveniently located in many places. New Macs even have Photo Booth, which utilizes built-in iSight, the most advanced webcam in the world. You use an iPod, I presume. Well, it will always work better with OS X, it is made for Mac.

Person 1: I heard that he uses Windows. I bet that his computer just crashed.
Person 2: It did. I use a Mac, mine won't ever crash. I've had it for two years, I have never gotten a virus. Everything works perfectly on Mac OS X.
Person 1: Shit! My PC just crashed!
Person 2: That's what happens when you use XP.

People bash windows and say it's like a 300$ virus for a reason, simply because it's true. Learn how computer OS's work and you will see.
To the idiot no7orious who wrote "Mac worshippers who think that Mac OS X is "safer" than Windows need to get their shit straight - people who create spyware and viruses naturally want to infect as many people as possible... and what computer do most people use? PC's!!! They don't want to waste their time making viruses for computers that not many people use - they focus on the majority!"
You couldn't be further from the truth. It is YOU who needs to get your shit straight and learn how OS's works and see that even if viruses and spyware were created for macs, the user would have to implement it themselves by enter the root password. You fucking idiot.
Mac OS X is a fucking amazingly stable, and learn that the way Mac's work is superior to the stupid coding that windows use. Wow so some games won't work, big deal(they have windows emulators though). I can finally customize my PC to my needs without having some fucking error message pop up and crash my machine. I can browse the internet and install and use(though techincally I'm not installing the Application, since it's stand alone) without having to worry about spyware and viruses and stupid bullshit like that.
Real computer people know that Mac's are better and just more fun to use. Even programmers know it. Everything is easier to access if you just learn to use it. Graphics are handled way easier since its openGL and a mac is a so much more powerful than any PC is. People who bash Mac's are just stupid gamer junkies who fail to see who the OS works.
With my Mac OS X I no longer have to have stupid bullshit spyware protectors and virus guards installed and running in the backround sucking up my resources. I can let my wife and kids use it without having to worry about viruses and shit. The games I play also handle much better due to open GL and I can make graphics and flash videos so much easier. Though I do own Windows(for gaming), I would take a Mac anyday over Windozes. I know how both of the OS's work. I wish game designers would see the light and program the games for MACs
