: you ppl are ignorent like all pc users.
Gates is a PC user, and he's the richest man in the free world. What does that say?
: the hardware is faster (Benchmark g3's vs. pentium anything)...Ever herd of CHRP motherboards????
True, Macs run all SCSI, all the time. However, PCs can run SCSI, so long as you buy a SCSI card (which are inexpensive).
: LINUX is only PC? funny i use it on my mac...avi's dont run on macs? (ever heard of quicktime?)
Who said that? Linux runs on Mac platform, but from what I've seen, it just sucks.
: you guy's are on CRACK..
: throw me ANY argument saying that PC's are better and i will show you otherwise....
Oh really? How about how Windows is infinately better for multitasking? Or how Linux or UNIX are both even better than Windows? How Linux and UNIX were made specifically for PC-based platforms? BIOS gives us PC users more control of our computer, better effeciency, more proctection? More software, cheaper, sooner. More upgradeable hardware (as in, no integrated motherboards, no floppies or cdroms that cannot be removed). Or how the internet was setup for PC-based systems, and was setup by the US government. Yeah, we all make fun of the gov't, but they know what they're doing.
Those should be enough statements to keep you thinking for a while. Oh, and as I've told people before, think before you blow up in a reply. Keep an open mind.
: P.S. you will go to hell for killing that MacPlus.
Oh god, not a MacPlus. Today those are probably worth, what, $5?
: İhris.
Nice comments, but I like to rely on more hardcore evidence.
