Oh and no, Windows would not be able to but their OS on a mobile device, but this isnt Windows VS Mac, its Mac vs Everything else, therefore I would like to point out that Google has put Linux on a phone, and any mobile device (netbooks), and linux is a far superior OS.
wow like the palm pixie and palm (web os) cant multitask ...
My dad has a iMac is it's a piece of crap ;). So yes I am now and then on it maybe 1 hour per week. Apple only got big because of the whole iPod hype. Seriously whenever I ask someone why do you like Apple of Windows and I will get the same answer "IT LOOKS PRETTY!!!" or "APPLE NEVER GETS VIRUSES!!!". I mean a Mac is a great computer for people that have NO clue at all what they are doing and are downloading 5 terabytes of porn. Windows Firewall alone is already 10 times better and stronger than the entire Mac OS.

I like how they come loaded with accessories but other then that not much I can say, the newer ones are a little better. The only reason I would buy a Mac is so I can use the Magic Mouse. But I do have iPod Touch and I am proud with that so Apple does make some good things.
You don't have to open Finder to open apps lol, ever heard of a dock, or spotlight?

I only own a PC because that's what I got first.

Hey, I'm really happy for you..and I'm gonna let you finish, but you are an idiot.
1) I have used Android and iPhone OS (or OS X mobile as you call it) and I much prefer iPhone OS, Google is doing a good job with Android but it's still very rough around the edges.
2) Google's 'Chrome OS' is hardly an operating system. it's basically a modified version of Chrome, I'm not saying that's bad, it's going to be GREAT for netbooks, NETBOOKS, it's just for bloody netbooks man, this is a clear sign of you having no freakin idea about what you're talking about, you need to do some research before you go talking crap.
3) OS X and iPhone OS are both UNIX.

Windows 7 is an amazing OS Microsoft really delivered with it and i think a lot of people are going to switch from Mac b/c of it
Once you go mac you never go back, I've never heard of a single mac user that has gone back to Windows...ever.

I'm pretty knowledgeable as far as computers go, I program, I administrate Linux/BSD servers among other things, I find that OS X has all the tools available to let me do that, and the UNIX-ness of it all lets me preform all the Linux-y stuff I'd usually do on a Linux box, I know a lot of tech enthusiasts that use OS X, just because it's easy to use doesn't mean it's featureless or slow, although that is the case some of the time (look at visual basic!) it isn't true here.

Google is in the process of creating a full fledged operating system for regular computers, REGUALR COMPUTERS, COMPUTERS, its bloody computers man. And all I'm addressing with the UNIX thing is Socrates who said it was amazing that Apple could fit OS X on a phone, even though android has greater capacities than iphone. So how am i an idiot? And in my book netbooks are real computers, I mean cmon, 4 gbs of RAM is pretty damn good for something that small.
Oh and btw, meet me, a mac user that has gone back. My dad got a mac once, hated it, passed it to me, i hated it, got a pc, passed the mac to my brother, and he is still in the process of completely giving up.
Thanks for the neg rep by the way, I can't believe you care that much about a mac vs. PC debate, I do know what im talking about and Im not talking "crap" I am talking to socrates about my opinion towards Google's new inventions and plans for the future.
Well when apple releases i phone 4G soon your mouths will drop open and suddenly you all will be on mac =p.. as of now The Nexus one may be the only phone close enough to the iphone...

I have nothing against Apple and I would personally love to see this happen. All these companies competing with each other is producing wonderful things. If apple produces something that convinces me that its the best of the best, I will gladly succumb, however this has not yet happen.

It's not just that, I dislike your general attitude towards everything, not just this thread.

Example? I can't seem to ever remember posting in the same thread as you.
It's my fault really, I was stupid enough to get involved in a Mac vs PC fanboy fight.
Edit: having 100 posts is awesome!
not mac vs pc. Why pc sucks thread lol

Actually to be correct it was a thread saying that "Apple haters have never touched a Mac" and it instantly turned into a PC vs Mac flame fight, and also just pwning iintens because clearly(concerning the people on this forum) many apple haters have indeed touched macs...why else would they hate them?
