« on: March 29, 2008, 03:53:35 PM »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.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.
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.
As it is what kind of people I'm dealing with.

yes, i do realize that. why do you treat your members as though they are stupid? seriously... i was simply stating that many schools across my area are changing over to macs. sheesh.
I'm highly offended that you feel that I do that.

« on: March 29, 2008, 12:27:26 PM »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.
And guess what? Those Mac's are used by less than a percent of our country's total population.

I don't know anything about Linux, so I can't comment there, but according to your theory, 99.9% of the population has no use for a Mac.

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

Because they're ripoff's, that;s why. The same reason iPods cost 30 times more than an ordinary mp3 player.

Are they made of something PC's aren't? Last I checked all computers are made of the same stuff.

You must be living in a fantasy world Gil. all computers are made of the same stuff. Therefore, all computers have problems. Buying a Mac won't guarantee you anything, other than a slimmer wallet.
