Enjoy your PC, lots of people do but do it knowing there's something better out there you just don't know how to use it is all.

That's what I'm trying to say. Macs are very aesthetically appealing and easy to use, like a child's toy. But they are extremely restrictive, and set in stone. On a PC, you can make it do anything you want, or develope whatever your heart desires. But if all that your heart desires is on a Mac, then use a Mac.


Bob, I responded to that quote a thousand times. You even quoted a response of mine to that statement. I'm really astonished that you don't see it. If all you want is on fucking Mac, then use a fucking Mac. How does that change the fact that Macs sales are indeed GREATLY affected by people buying because it's hip, pretty, mainstream?
It's not intelligence that is the factor. It's knowledge.

Stupidity is a measure of intelligence, Fletch.

Stupid: 1 a : slow of mind : obtuse
b : given to unintelligent decisions or acts : acting in an unintelligent or careless manner
c : lacking intelligence or reason : brutish

I was giving you too much credit; you misunderstood the conversation at a deeper level than I thought. Learn the language before you argue with me.

Haha. Ok. I'll use "unknowledgeable" next time. Pick apart more of my grammar. I'm sure you can find some more mistakes that surely completely invalidate what I've been saying throughout this thread.

i'll leave you guys to it, I love my Mac and if you are busy using both and still prefer PC then that , at least, is an informed opinion. Those of you who are spouting off about Macs and have never used one... :-P

The point I made disputed a point of ignorance as well, but you don't know that because you can barely speak.

You use a word meaning something different than what you mean to say, then accuse me of not understanding you because I am stupid, and then when I prove that you did not know the meaning of a word you used (despite very definitely being taught it and being surrounded by contextual clues), you do not acknowledge that I understood what you said perfectly.

So I want you to confirm this for me, Fletch:

This is what you think:

A) I am a retard for having understood the meaning of what you said better than you did

B) But you are not a retard for, as an adult, not knowing the difference between "stupid" and "ignorant"

Either confirm that that is what you think, or apologize.
