Post by: FAMY2 on January 01, 2008, 08:16:37 PM
 If you were to get a new laptop, what would you look for?

Macbook or Macbook Pro.

If those are too expensive get one of the Dell Ubuntu ones.

If you had a brain, you'd only use that partition for games and use OS X because it's not only more secure but just better.

MacBook because of portability and because MacBook Pro prices are ridiculous.

You can get a 2.4 GHz iMac or for 500 dollars more you can get a rather unportable laptop with a 2.2 GHz Processor and a lesser graphics card

Standard Macbooks and underpowered and overpriced. Macbook Pros, while expensive, are quite powerful.

You can't possibly be that weak so that you can't control a Macbook Pro in transit.  I have no difficulty bringing it places.

really because performance in the top-end macbook and 2.2 GHz Macbook Pro are identical psyduck;. So it's a heavier macbook with "pro" slapped on it.

All Macbooks, iMacs, and Macbook Pros are underpowered. At least the models that we own.

I live in New York, I don't have time nor the means to lug a fucking behemoth laptop around.

Hmmmm...?

Why would I want to do that?

I was merely suggesting that you could try out both OS's before seeing which one you like more.

As for the "torrent it" part? I'm sorry that I wouldnt want to pay 100-200 something dollars for XP/OSX Tiger with a makeover.

well if you're not already running tiger then you're just stealing an entire operating system, idiot psyduck;

Also, Leopard is $129.

Well, yes, but wouldnt you rather pay nothing?

Also, sorry that I dont track the prices of my Mac OS's. I really dont track any OS's, as they all suck.

When did I say that Leopard was XP with a makeover?

I said OS's are makeovers of their predecessors.

I forgot about including new features, adding support for new technologies, fixing old bugs that couldn't be fixed with a simple system update, and plenty of other things.
