oik Posted August 21, 2004 Share Posted August 21, 2004 I'm a troll are you sure you remembered to turn on the g5? (honestly though, your post is one of the stupidest in the whole thread...) p.s.: if the mac can't do "****", how did i get onto neowin with my mac? hmm :unsure: someone please help me, i'm very lost now. :wacko: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radioboy Posted August 21, 2004 Author Share Posted August 21, 2004 HAHAHA so true no, its more a matter of "my girlfriend doesnt give a damn about RISC vs CISC and other similar technical arguments for the mac, i was looking more for reasons a normal/non-geek would understand" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chad Posted August 21, 2004 Share Posted August 21, 2004 Don't even get me started on the troll. But if you guys had ignored him like you're supposed to, I would have only had to edit one post instead of three. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unique Posted August 21, 2004 Share Posted August 21, 2004 do you just want her to be sexy like us? ;) Get her a 12" ibook, then have her wear it....and only it.... OW OW! :p Seriously, the mac can do everything, plus it lasts longer, and is a lot nicer to use, I have a 12" ibook and a tower with p4 2.8HT; while I love both machines; the mac is always nicer to use than xp...and the included software is seriously to die for. /edit: tell her its cute and white, that's why my g/f is in love with my ibook. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drprotos Posted August 21, 2004 Share Posted August 21, 2004 (edited) holy ****, will you people shut up on the "just get a PC" rag? that's not even the question i askedfirst, she's not going to get a 600 dell. even if she got a PC she'd be plonking down at least $1000 to get a decent machine that would last, and an ibook is $949 on an educational discount, so price isn't the issue here the point is the college she's going to uses majorly macs for the program she's in, and she's considering getting one for that reason. so that also means shut up about "she wont use it to it's full potential", you don't know what she's going to be doing, now do you? however, her parents are saying "well what's the difference" and she doesn't quite have an answer for them. is anyone ever helpful on this forum anymore? i didn't ask for reasons to not get a mac, i asked for some major differences i could point out to her. I'm not even smart enough to be a troll. I'm just a wannabe Edited August 22, 2004 by superfula Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radioboy Posted August 22, 2004 Author Share Posted August 22, 2004 Ok i think we have a dumbass here<snip the rest of the stupidity> if you didn't notice my signature i have a mac already, thank you anyway. i didnt make the thread offensive, it's dumbasses like you who made the thread offensive, finding the need to flame me with "get a pc" and "if she doesnt know the difference she doesnt deserve one" and everything else if you also bothered to read about a page further before posting your ignorant reply, you'd see it also came down to she will get a mac, but now it's between emac or ibook. so next time read before running your stupidness off.

frew_16 Posted August 26, 2004 Share Posted August 26, 2004 Hmmm my brother has a powerbook G4, its soo thin and quiet, and put together very well. Its just basically got seemless intergration with everything. Since its all built by one company, it built to work. Plus sooo incredibly stable, its just a nice piece of hardware.

frew_16 Posted August 26, 2004 Share Posted August 26, 2004 Plus the processors (espically G5) last a long time. And are just impressive in what they do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
