I got some beautiful flowers once for valentine's day. And it totally made me feel fruity. They were from a girl, obviously, but anyway. Nothing wrong with flowers, even though I'm embarrassed to get 'em. ... c_c

Right, I'm dropping this thread. Every halfwit who has never touched a Mac seems to be chiming in-- It's good to see some people actually tempered with a little bit of experience (the previous poster with PPC experience), rather than all these one button halfwits, but seriously. For everyone...

... right click. Like, say, every Mac has. Level any criticism you want against a Mac but unless you've used one, you're going to sound like a moron, seriously. The new trackpads? Right bottom corner or two fingers. New mice? two fingers to click for right, one for left. Also you might...

My god, seriously, enough with the 1-button stuff. No Mac comes with a non-right-click solution anymore and hasn't for years, especially not their laptops-- and why does everyone compare "basic" PC laptops with Mac ones, when the only way to get a PC laptop that actually does what a Mac does...

A friend of mine lived in a dental surgery as a kid, and happens to know that a man shot himself in what became the foyer area, with a shotgun. One day he was wandering around after hours and spotted a man standing at the end of the hallway; Said man turned, walked into the foyer, and my friend...

ABSOLUTELY! Stopping time would be fine in that situation.

Cracking the case does not violate the EULA. In fact they tell you how to do it. You can swap anything that doesn't have a "don't remove me" sticker without voiding your warranty (Inside a Macbook this is only the battery). This is a pretty common misconception actually.

I think he's more talking about laptops or integrated desktops, where a Mac is about as customisable as anything else. (Not much, admittedly; Laptops are modular but good luck buying the modules seperately)

God, the wandering turtleneck. Jobs scares me.

Jackalope! I want a jackalope, but who doesn't? ... and hey, I suppose that counts, right? A gryphon or dragon would just scare the bejesus out of me every time I went to pet it, those weird cat-based things are scary and demonic stuff just gives me the willies (blame my Catholic upbringing)...

... does everyone seriously think that a PC, made from PC parts, can't be customised? that was the first thing I did, ditch the 250gb in favour of a 500gb I had laying around. Macs are just PCs under the skin. Change the ram, replace the hard disc, no problem.

Right, I had to register to post here so I'll get my piece nice and clear. I can tell you a few good reasons to, and not to, buy a mac. My experience is with a Macbook Pro, so I'll restrict it to laptops. For; Portability. Macbooks have excellent battery life-- even the base models have 10...
