mac doesnt get them because of apple's patented secret coding
you could have a virus on windows and you dont even know it

Customer Satisfaction =/= having no viruses.
And if you're going to blindly defend apple, get out of the Windows section.

To add to my retaliation; because Windows is default on alot of computers now-a-days, alot of unexperienced people are going to be using them, and downloading stupid shit because they are amateurs, thus getting Malware, Trojans, ect. I'm experienced with computers (somewhat) and I get a virus about every 3 months or so, and thats because I use alot of P2P sites. And even those are dealt with easily using anti-virus, which you should already have if you're using Windows.

that's a wall street statistic you're showing me. even if it was 5 percent, which it isnt, then it would be explained by the fact that mac is a high cost, high quality machine that most people cant afford or just arent informed or tech savvy enough to comprehend.
also nice job using some stupid meme to reinforce your pathetic argument.

i dont understand why you're laughing, since your pathetic OSes vista and 7 failed miserably compared to Snow Leopard, which is true 64 bit and has a much better gui and is unix-based (which was designed for mainframe computers), so that should give you an idea of mac's stability

Don't get me wrong though, snow leopard is a great system. Just many, many users dislike just how it is. I'm not gonna get into the whole preference shit.
I'd probably get one if I ever need a computer for a job (laptop). But nothing for what I do on a PC.

1. I'm laughing because you pull stuff out of your ass.
2. I'm laughing because you're a troll.
3. I'm laughing because you're an attention whore.
4. I'm laughing because you haven't a clue as to what you're talking about even if it is trolling.
5. I'm laughing because you've been here for almost 5 months (probably an alt anyway) and you've been banned many times for trolling.
6. I'm laughing because you're not permabanned.
lol

Also the many troll posts he's made in the PC Building section.
Hold the ph0ne, and then proceed to pour concrete in his mouth.

mac does everything a pc does, and more, but so much better, and youre talking to someone who's used the win7 beta since it came out, vista for 2 years, and xp for 6 years, and os x for 5 years. also keep in mind that i graduated from MIT with a ph.d in computer sciences and also in databasing. dont even mention games because i developed a compatibility layer for all mac users including myself and is available at [url]http://www.codeweavers.com/products/cxmac/[/url]

Before I show you the video, I'd like to introduce myself. I'm ph0ne. I've been spreading peace and love throughout the Steam community since early 2007, and I have made many friends along the way. It wasn't until December 2007 when I made my first promotional video of my good deeds (an attempt to get into heaven, no?). Since then I've made countless other videos dedicating myself to bettering the Steam community and spreading my cause and good word. You may have heard of me, or you may not have at all. Nevertheless, here is the video:

This Ph0ne guy, i'd really like to know if he's a bad troll or if he's really stupid.
I've been using MacBook for 2 years now (No, i did NOT take the Mac side, my Main platform is still PC)
And from my own experience i can say several things.
1. MacBook is a overpriced piece of unreliable shit
2. OS X is a pretty decent OS that have some nice features compared to Windows but i still chose Windows since it has MUCH greater compatibility.
3. "Mac's don't get viruses"-thing is a total bullshit, even with my limited programming capabilities i can write a virus that looks like your favorite installer but instead erases your whole HD (Sudo FTW)
Not counting five-minute script that clogs up your memory in a minute and you can't shut it down (not even with Force Quit), which i use for doing pranks on my friends.

Both, but mostly a troll. He gets banned every month or so for it.
Just upgraded from XP. 7 has been awesome so far.
Is there a transparent Windows Explorer window that works with Aero yet? It would really complete my theme.

There's a program that'll do it but I can't find it. It was on DA.

Hey Guys. I've been away from Windows for the last 3 months, and today I finally got everything set up for doing work on it again (also just got a secondary monitor. However, I still find it much less visually appealing than OS X. I didn't think it was really worth making a thread over as you guys would probably know.
I'm trying to get my superbar like [url=http://filesmelt.com/dl/DesktopApril2010.jpg]this[/url]. I know about token, but I don't how to change the shell or apply the icons. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
I also saw some people with more defined, square windows. Do you know what that's called/how to apply it?
Thank you very much. :smile:
