Im selling my macbook, yes you heard it.Im selling my macbook when i get it home from apple, defect battery. I remember when i got it, i set it up and it was flying, aaah the feeling. The reason why im selling it is i have had to many problems and i only use it as a desktop, its just sitting there.

Now you are probably thinking that i will leave macs, but no. This was the greatest switch of my life and i will be getting a 2ghz 2 gb ram 160 gb hdd mac mini instead, so dont worry. I putted the macbook 250€ under the price for a new one, i think its fair because its in excellent condition.

Wish me luck.

The MacBooks are not rotten to the core.

I would get a iMac, or MBP.

But anything but WINDOWS!

Whatever you think - Microsoft has been an industry leader and a big push for technology since they started. Sure, their OS may have bugs, but you can't expect them to be perfect. I'd like to see you start a company from ground up (let alone start building the first OS).

I use to be like "Wow, Windows is annoying whenever I get the BSoD" but when you think about how to actually develop an OS, it's not as easy as you think. I'm an engineer and I find it amazing how the development process work. A "Roffle" comment is stupid and ignorant. I'm not trying to start a flame war here, but you really need to open your eyes and consider the good (and perhaps bad) things that Microsoft has done for us. Apple isn't perfect either, ya know.

Correction, if you don't mind. Bill Gates purchased MSDos from the guys who developed it, then Gates created the company call MicroSoft. :)
