Attention Mac Haters!

[Pissed_Macman]

We're not Apple users! Apple is the company that makes Macs, which is what we use! That's so annoying, almost as annoying as saying MAC.

I don't like one-button mice as much as two-buttons, that extra button is just way too useful. I don't have to drag items all the way to the trash without going to the keyboard anymore. Not just when using the OS, but in games it's very helpful.

OMFG!

For gods sake people! Can't you get it thrugh your stupid heads that 2 button moce work on the Mac!!!! Yes, they work, just like on the PC.

So there.

I use a 5 button Logitech mouse on my Mac. The one button mouse has alot of style, but is rather useless for most users. The scroll wheel is a nice touch. I would ove to see apple come out with a 2btn + scroll wheel mouse with as much style as the one button mouse, but that would draw away the whole "Macs are so easy to use, you only need one button" thing.

macs are slow, especially at equal price points with PC's.

Didn't we just talk about this ? Anyways, sun microsystems is probably going to be the next big thing within a few years.  If i were you i would stop worrying about AMD or Intel.

Of course I realize they can use two button mice, in fact I'm using one right now on a powerbook. The point is that Macs don't come with two-button mice so I have to go out and buy my own.

this is more of a piss off than anything but I think that Mac OSX should have included X11, or are they waiting for version 12.

Every other Unix LINUX Distro has it, and if Mac Really wants to Join the *nix community then they should allow their users access to that community.

Uh? Third party ports of X11 has been available for Mac OS X YEARS ago. Apple even made their own version of X11 with their own WM available as a download six months ago! And yes, it's going to be included in 10.3.

I think the whole "there to expensive" argument doesn't hold any water. Virginia Tech has built a 17 Teraflop system for $5 million. Dell has announced a 3 Teraflop system for $38 million!!!!!! You do the maths.

One of the main reasons Virginia Tech chose Apple was value for money and cost effectiveness.

Wonderful! So, next time that I'll be building myself a super computer, I will totally consider myself a Mac.

Until then, I think I will stick to me $600 PC.

And I won't even mention the Athlon64/G5 benchmark comparisons.
