kairon Posted July 6, 2002 Share Posted July 6, 2002 Mac. Not to mention the mac community totally gives off a vibe of "coolness" unlike the overlarge windows community with lots of n00bs... it just seems like there are less newbies on the mac Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why is that? According to the poll, there are more windows users so therefore more tools to be downloaded to infect and hack other computers.

DeathLace Posted July 7, 2002 Share Posted July 7, 2002 Who cares, why would you bother argueing? There was a picture I once saw about argueing on the net. It said "Argueing on the internet is like being in the special olympics........ Even if you win you're still retarded." I'm saying this to the people aegueing because who cares. Obviously you're going to argue for the one you're using and you won't convince the other person in a little tiny thread, so who cares, it's pointless. Just wanted to say that.

MaxPayne1357 Posted July 7, 2002 Share Posted July 7, 2002 I didnt even vote because there is really no clear winner, you can debate pc vs macs all you want and you will find both have their advantages and disadvantages. It really depends on what your going to be using it for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure that everyone and their mother has seen that pic by now and if you think about it the retarded one is the one that jumps in the middle of an argument on the internet and takes the time out of their life to say that it's pointless.

usr.bin Posted July 7, 2002 Share Posted July 7, 2002 I'm retarded, so I'll just jump right in the middle here.... IMHO, most people would agree that OSX was far more superior than Windows. My logic for that?... If OSX was ported to x86 (I don't mean darwin here either), I can't begin to count the number of Neowinians that would jump on that bandwagon and say screw Windows. There has been numerous posts about this and loads of people have already commented on how quickly they would ditch Windows. This isn't a debate over what is better, PC's or Macs, the guy just asked which OS people thought was better. Just my retarded asses $0.02. --dave [edit] Upon closer inspection of this Poll, I discovered that the debate was indeed intended originally as a PC vs Mac (sort of...there was also Windows vs. OS X in parantheses). But the posts here led me otherwise which is why i posted what I posted. My apoligizes. Most people would delete a post had this happened to them, but it would end up quoted eventually if I did that, so I'm clarifying. My argument stands for OS X vs Windows, as far as PC vs. Mac, ignore my ignorant ass. I told you in the beginning I was retarded. [edit 2] This post is indeed Windows vs. Mac. The poll options are just completely screwed up! The topic is "windows or macintosh?" and there is an "other" option, and I don't know of any other CURRENT types of computers. (Then again I'm retarded and could need enlightened.) As it stands, my original post was completely correct and well founded. Please ignore my first edit. Thank you for your time and patience. [edit 3] I'm betting my other $0.02 that the author of this thread created it with a PC considering the poll options. :p j/k, I love you people.

We are on Neowin. How about I post the same poll over on Macnn or Macosx.com. Do you think that poll will be biased? This thread is pathetic.
