+---- Thread: Apple Haters that have never touched a Mac. (/showthread.php?tid=1935)
RE: Apple Haters that have never touched a Mac. - Elektrisk - 04-13-2010
Since this appears to be a general Apple thread, I have to say that I would love to have a Mac if I could afford one. However, I can't. There's not enough reason for me to spend $500 extra dollars on a Mac. If I want my computer to look like a Mac, I can simply use FlyAKiteOS. Moving on, iTunes on Windows is terrible. It's slow, bloated, and not very user friendly imo. However, the iPod itself is great. I love its features. I don't even have an iPod touch and I like them.

I'm in the same position. I can't afford to dish out the money for one...however, I don't think it's all the looks. It's the software available for the Mac as well. While the amount of software isn't as large as Windows, its quality is up there. If it were all about looks, I would have had a Mac theme.

I can't really think of any programs that are only available for Mac that I want. I am not into music creation, so Garage Band isn't that much use to me, and I don't care about video editing, so there goes Final Cut Pro. Granted, I don't know much about Macs. However, it might be worth getting one just so I can actually run scripts for iTunes

I have used a mac but don't like it. Mac is for fun but I need to do serious stuff so Windows wins.

How can you be taken seriously if you don't TRY to offer a basis for your argument? "I can't afford it; therefore, it sucks." What terrible reasoning. Mac and Linux don't need users like you that are unwilling to sit down and learn the OS before judging it unfairly.
