My Caddy by Marcus Johnson. It's my favorite song this month, in terms of first-time airing.

And that has what to do with this?

The name of the CD is the same name as the show. It's a coincidence or something

I completely took apart my iBook today. I took out the dead combo drive, as I just bought a replacement on eBay. I save money by installing it myself. It's interesting how different Macs are from PC's. It's cool.

Nope. It'll probably stay in the fridge for another 5 years.

LOL, I've seen no proof of that. I've seen the PC market continue to get larger and larger, but I've seen no numbers that suggest that the Mac market is growing at any appreciable rate.

At least Billy gets it.

well actually, down here many school districts are switching over from Microsoft to macs...just recently my school has been making its transition to all macs, though Microsoft computers are still around campus, they're expected to be gone in the next few months, and defiantly by the beginning of the next school year. SAISD made their transition to macs a while back, many of the students seem to love them.

AHISD again, just made it's decision last year, I'm now learning that students at Alamo Heights JR. School have their own macs issued to them, while us here at the high school don't. kinda stupid, but oh well... though I'm not sure if its just a trial thing, or permanently like that.

And again, do you realize how small a number of people that is? A few schools, or a few companies, is but a fraction of the millions of people and schools and companies that make up the population of this country.

Actually Gil, Vista (and all Windows products) have always outsold Apple's OS.

Outsold? Maybe. Well-received? Absolutely not. The going opinion about Vista is that it sucks. People are pissed off about this. FACT: Vista has provoked more people to buy Macs instead, because they feel ripped off my M.S.

Again, you can't make that kind of assumption, especially with businesses. It entirely depends on what the business is. Accounting/Financial businesses probably wouldn't have Macs. Graphic Design/Film/Music businesses would have nothing but. These types of businesses are increasing too.

I'm done going through this. It's quite obvious what kind of people I'm dealing with here.

That's an extremely inaccurate percentage. You may not realize, but lots of things today are made using macs. Take movies for example. 99% made on Mac. same with music, TV, etc.

That's about the only thing Mac's really have over PC's. Otherwise, your waisting money.

I can agree with that. If all you're doing is web browsing and similar stuff, then a Mac isn't the right choice. But if you want a stable, productive, powerfull machine, then it's really only choice (as opposed to Linux).

EDIT: maybe this should be merged into the Mac Discussion thread.

Not in the least bit. Macs can do things PC's could never dream of doing, or at least, in half the time, with considerably less resource consumption. Why do you think people in the productivity field (graphic design, music, etc.) use Macs exclusively? Discussion closed.

I'm just telling you what's true. Why do you think they cost so much more than PC's? If they used the same EXACT parts, try $1,000 cheaper, and get a 10x crappier machine.
