HOLY... SHIT!!!!!!

So my Dell PC back in Savannah has been trying to take a crap on me for a year or so now, and it's pretty much the bane of my existence... it doesn't run the programs I need for school, it doesn't really run much of anything save for iTunes, firefox, and occasionally it will let me kickstart photoshop or illustrator.. It's not a bad comp, it's just old and I haven't upgraded it (it was purchased in like 2003). I tend to include it when I'm bitching about things because I have lost hours of work in photoshop because it likes to freeze when the autosave happens, and I just kinda generally hate doing schoolwork. Well now that I have my student loan cash, I've been looking around at new computers, because I'm doing a lot of CAD stuff, and my PC just won't cut it.. I've been looking at new Dells and stuff, and was really wanting a mac mini, but didn't want to have to spend the money on the screen as well as the comp.

Well, dad came home today and tells me to go out to his car, that he has a box in there for me.. just something he picked up on his way home...

Not quite, mike, but if you're digging that deep for something to fuck with me about I'll go buy another one at $400 if it'll make you feel better?

No digging required. It was sitting right there on the surface. Later, QD.

Wow. You pegged it. Every post you've made has been followed by me talking about your phone. Lolol. I thought, since you have some form of education, you'd be smarter than this, but holy shit can I be wrong for once? I guess I can. Later, QD.

you got a mac.. i wouldn't be excited, prepare for worthlessness in a computer like you've never seen before. Not to mention ridiculously high prices when you try to fix that peice of shit.

Furthermore:

Ever notice how most Mac users are skinny? It's because of all the calories they burn because they can't shut the fuck up about how great their Macs are. What is it about Apple that makes its users unable to shut their mouths? Everywhere I go, there's another asshole with a Mac preaching about how much better Macs are than PCs. They regurgitate lines directly from Apple's marketing campaign, like "it just works." I have the following rebuttals to this argument:




1. If everything on a Mac just works, then why does a website called "Mac fix it" exist, assholes? Here are a few choice topics on macfixitforums.com (http://www.macfixitforums.com/postlist.php?Cat=&Board=Forum35):


-Login window stuck!
-lower caSe "S" key not working!!
-Menu bar keeps flashing
-I can't drag and drop!
Waaaah, boo hoo! I can't drag and drop! Dumbass. Looks like your Macs aren't perfect after all, which leads me to my second point:

2. Fuck you.



I don't know why Mac users get so defensive when you call them idiots. I mean, Apple is a company that has built its entire user base around the fact that its users can't do simple things like turn their computers on. Hell, most Mac users can't even talk without using their hands, which ranks their intelligence somewhere between a simian and hog shit:
