Posted From My Boring PC

I don't have anything against Macs myself, I just don't think they're worth the money since I could buy a PC and still have about a grand left for software and upgrades, and I think those that believe they're "unhackable" or think that the lack of viruses on Macs has to do with their design is seriously ignorant, and I suggest they take a close look at Firefox if they want to see what can happen to a product once it gets some modicum of popularity. The reason why there are fewer viruses for the Mac is the same reason why there are fewer games for the Mac.

In any case, my personal philosophy is if you're happy with a Mac, good for you. In my limited experience they're solid, reliable machines that have gained some serious credibility now that they're BSD-based (I'm speaking of OSX forward). And the interface is nice (although I don't understand why they resist the second mouse button).

Why am I bringing this up? I'm getting sick of those annoying new Mac ads. Not only do they border on intentionally misleading in some cases (what advertisement isn't?), but it just demeans the whole debate with the whole "Windows is boring, Mac is hip" schtick. I happen to like Microsoft Paint. So sue me.

That's why I had a good belly laugh when I saw this and this.

Oh, and if you're wondering about the picture, check out this link about Apple's infamous legal battle with the Church of Satan (FYI -- They don't actually believe in Satan, it's more of a hedonism thing. Is that better? You be the judge.).
