I never was and never will be. I am honest and sincere, and I came in here genuinely looking for help on making a decision.

And BTW
Refurb Dell duo 2gz 120gb drive dvdrw

Used macbook pro 15.4 80gb

And the apple spot I saw was a cute thin actor playing a mac, and a fat dorky actor playing a pc who freezes then falls over as the mac exits unscathed. Clear implication (the word I used) that macs are freeze proof, and not true as per my experience in the mac store, where the machine did hang, and did so after all apps were closed.

I resent being labled a troll, I resent implications that I was lying. Honestly, my concerns about the denial in mac culture were actually strengthened by my experience on this forum.

Just in case any of you care, I have settled on a fujitsu notebook/tablet machine, mostly to have the chance to experiment with what seems a promising technology and OS. Poor Newton.

Glad you took my advice and stuck with Windows!

I find it odd how someone who claims to be so "open minded" let some folks here completely influence his judgement and opinion, unless he had preconceived notions already and was simply looking for affirmation. Nah, that would never happen....

Does it surprise anyone here that the POS Dell is selling for a LOT less?

Bye!

There's no Mac culture...just a bunch of people enjoying their individual computers and sharing a communal OS.

In any barrel there's always going to be bad apples.

I'll stick with my "Macs Suck, don't get one." comment from your other thread.

Thumbs up.

It's a friggin' computer, do whatever you want to do.

Gentlemen, and I am using it loosely. Remember a computer is a tool and only a tool. You use the best one for the job, be it a windows PC or an Apple PC, they both are just tools.
