Honestly, what brought this on x11? Very little of the stuff I put at that site was actually written by me. If you see something that is untrue, email me or post it in the guestbook so I can fix it. I take it you got those from the 50 PC lies? I put that on there because it's kind of funny (that's where I got the idea for False Evange). That was also written probably about five years ago. I'll take it down if I must.

As for the PC references, YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN YOU RETARD!!! How many times do I have to freaking explain something that's so obvious! That was very cleaver of you that you figured out Macs are also personal computers, doogie, just like the last fifty people that have thrown that in my face when they know exactly what I mean already!

Fine I'll take it down if it offends you so much! Jeez!

good. can't you take it is your site says a lot of shit? if the info on your site is wrong, you should change it. in fact correct me if i am wrong, but aren't you one of those who asks people to point out discrepancies on your site?

my previous comments stand. your terminology is wrong. change it to avoid this problem EVERY SINGLE TIME a new reader sees your site. the end. it has *NOTHING* to do with 'offending' people, it's just painful to see you talking out of your arse, when the rest of your material seems to be spot on...

Good point raised in this post...

In future I shall make sure that I refer to "MS Windows" and not use the term PC to mean "MS Windows".

I wish I could think of a pithy quote from George Orwell's 1984 about the use of language to manipulate and control thinking - but I can't... ho! humm!

There's a lot of good content on my site written by other people that unfortunately use the term PC. I'm not going to change other people's writing, so I would be forced to take down a large chunk of my content. Would you be happy if I put a notice in several places informing people that PC actally means Wintel?

[Calum]

yes, like i said a few days ago, remember that excellent site you linked to about why macs are the best computers for schools? they had a really good two sentence disclaimer explaining that when they said 'PC' they meant an IBM compatible desktop computer running microsoft windows. So long as that is made clear then it's all hunky dory. it's not good saying 'YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN YOU RETARD' if some people clearly do not know what you mean. if everybody knew what you meant then you would not get any people telling you your terminology was wrong (or confusing, whatever).

So just include a disclaimer on the top or bottom of articles that use the term 'PC' in a stupid way. that's my vote anyway, i mean it's your site, i'm just trying to point out how its meaning could be a little clearer.

[Pissed_Macman]

I posted this at the bottoms of the Articles/Evange and the Rantings sections. Hopefully it will make my site less "retarted".

Disclaimer: PC is a term that is used to describe non-Mac computers, not just Windows computers. There are other PC operating systems that this website has no quarrel with. Unfortunately, this term has been used incorrectly in some of the content here. Unless stated otherwise, please take the term PC to mean Wintel.

i never thought you were retarted in the first place! but well done on doing that, it's made me happy!
