No More Happy Mac
Zombie9920:
What is the big deal about a square with a smile in it? I don't see anything interesting about that happy mac face...try modifying your boot screen to make it look like what you think is cool. You maccies must not do much boot screen modding and so forth like us PC users and Windows users do. Windows modders tend to modify every aspect of thier system to fit thier personalities and likes. We don't stay stuck with the default crap. LoL
I have also noticed that maccies don't tend to mod thier cases, monitors, keyboard, mouse, speakers, etc. to have it's own cool custom look to it(instead of the factory default look).
Example, a PC case that has been modded with a window, neon cathodes, LED replacements, custom graphics, etc. looks alot better than a standard Mac or PC case.
Shit like this looks cool(and it looks alot better when the modded case panel with a window is on the case..the case panel is off in this pic). http://www.ticz.com/homes/users/waltw/case.jpg
What am I thinking? A typical maccie modding? Ha....most maccies don't even know how to properly plug in the wires and cables inside of a case(because they are robbed of the opportunity to learn how to build a system because Jobs forces you to use computers pre-built by Apple).
I don't think that Mac users think different, they just let Steve jobs do the thinking for them. ;P

Heh heh, that's the funniest and most hypocritical thing I have ever heard you say Zombie! By your logic you should be using Linux on your PC, something you can actually modify, beyond the piddly list of registry parameters. With Windows you are stuck with what Bill Gates gives you, a pile of shit.
At least with the Mac, they *can* modify the underlying OS any way to choose (the Darwin part). And I bet with a computer like the one you posted you should be able to play one mean game of solitaire.

You would be surprised what kinds of modifications you can do to Windows using resource editor programs(like RESEDIT and other editors) and so forth. Nobody says that I choose to leave anything in my Windows like it originally was when I first installed XP.

Uh, no I wouldn't be surprised. Remember, MCSEs come to me for advanced help with Windows. Just as I said (and you agreed to) you are limited to parameters in the registry or configuration files. You can not add functionality to a program without modifying it's source. Sure some apps/components have a lot of parameters but they are a finite number. If you wanted to actually change the functionality of something beyond the given parameters you can't, not without source code. Windows = finite. Linux = infinite.
