Why I use a Mac
« on: 30 May 2002, 21:26 »
Jeff Adkins writes columns for Lowendmac.com and this is one of his best yet. His reasons for using a Mac are, for the most part, also mine. Are you ready?

Actually Windows XP would suit his needs best, if he could get past all the lies and propaganda spread against Microsoft by the Linux and Mac trolling teams.

the only person that windows XP would suit perfectly would be somebody with no arms, no legs and most importantly, no brain. In fact so long as they have no brain, the arms and legs are just an added bonus. sound like anybody we know around here?  ;)

LMAO!! :D   WEll xPimp I'm convinced that next time you surely will suggest that xp will find cure for cancer, aids, osteoporosis and baldness. It will heal the world and stop all wars to come.

People will love each other because of xp and our saviour's second coming is due to xp!!

You must know somehow that xp servicepack2 gets humankind in touch with aliens and whole universe will become as one happy loving xp community.

Finally xp opens up a dimension gate in space and god him/her/itself will come to live with mankind and to use xp because it is so good for everything.. Surely god will use xp to create more worlds.. or what do you think xPimp?

I almost feel sorry for ranting to you because you're so funny.  :D

I think we should grab him in the parking lot as he goes to his '73 Hyundai Pony, tie him up and force him to make more funny posts like that.

Mac Hater: As much as I loathe responding to such overtly incoherent posts/rants, it is my duty to drop some education on neophytes such as yourself.

First off, your comment about Mac users being gay...completely baseless, utterly ignorant, and abusive. I'm sorry if you're a bigot or a homophobe (that's your problem to deal with), but such comments are completely irrelevant to the topic. BTW what was your point?

Secondly, you obviously need to attend some entry level English courses. Your grammar is attrocious, your rant is comprised of one very long run-on sentance (if it could be called that) which is completely devoid of punctuation, and your attempt at describing sexual action is pathetic at best. You wouldn't make it far in the romance novel biz...a word of advice: don't quit your day job if you're lucky enough to land one.

And thirdly, the thought of being even remotely associated with someone who suffers such a profound lack of intellect and tact makes me ill. Therefore, in order to avoid having even the faintest connection to you and your ilk, I'll stick with my Mac until you and yours are able to prove that using Windows can cure you of your obvious shortcomings.

This concludes our lesson for today.

I hate this asshole... he sounds like he has a little homophobia problem himself.  Maybe he was screwed by his dad at an early age...

Microsoft flamers use arguments.
