Why do people like APPLE products? dont you have to be a homo to own an APPLE?
 

it is like suburbia or some shit. everyone walking around with the same friggin player. people are like robots!

i bought an apple lappy and used it twice i couldnt stand it.

they are like the emo of the computer world. the douchy of the douchers buy apple.

why did you?

someone told me to buy an ipod you have to show your homo card at the till.

Its all bullshit now. Apple vs. PC they are now the same hardware. All Intel and AMD.

It is the user interface that one prefers over the other. Windows vs Mac OS whatever

They work better. My iphone is amazing and my MacBook Pro is the best computer I ever bought. I was all pc since 2004.

what makes them "work better"?

when charging your MacBook Pro do you have to plug it in with a pink power cord for it to charge up?

Are you homophobic much?

Are you against supreme interfaces and fast computing?

Do you prefer Windows to hell or swan diving OS X?

No i am not, are you interested?

i am against supreme use of douchyness that one computer company offers.

I prefer windows, i am not nerdy enough to consider an OS hell. i suggest you go outside and breath fresh air.

do hook lines like "sumpreme interface... fast computing.... windows to hell" get all the ladies?

I could not agree more. Preach on brother! :thumbsup

Anyone who thinks that a Mac works better than a PC is a drunk converted fool.

Here are the spec of my PC:
Proc: i7 core 950 3.0GHz
RAM: 12gigs DDR3 1336
MotherB: X58 Chipset
Primary HD: 320gig 15000rpm
GPU: ATI 4890 1 gig

A friend of mine has the newest current Mac Pro Tower that has two physical Intel Xeon Procs that does NOT out perform my single chip i7 core!

Apple have yet to put a true i7 core in their machines. So do not come at me with Mac bullshit! When Apple installs true i7 procs in Macs then they will be on the level of a i7 PC.
Go to Intel.com read the specs on the i7 core and the Intel Xeon “Nehalem” processor
They are not the same. The i7 is the fastest and widest bandwidth proc to date. They have four levels of cache that are far greater than Xeons as well.

Now when it comes to which OS you prefer I will not argue that at all.

Who cares. I use what works for me. My HP cost half of what a Mac would run me, and it does exactly the same shit.

I can't justify twice as much money because there's an Apple on it when it's doing the same stuff.

WOW! I completely agree 100% all the way! Yes I have high end hardware in my PC.
The total cost of my machine was $1200 USD I shopped around and found great deals.

Gotta love newegg :)

I like Apple mainly because of their quality product line. Quality does matter to me, and I don't mind spending extra bucks to get top of the top.

I have a quad core PC machine back home that rocks, I paid around 2k$ for it, but I love my macbook pro because it's also very fast and the operating system is amazing: finely tuned, stable, fast!

The best of all, MacBook Pro is at the same price range as its level competition, like Sony Vaio or Dell XPS. It's not much more expensive than those, yet it has better hardware and boy it is so sexy :)

The same goes with iPhone, iPod touch, iMac, and so on and so forth.

If you are not homophobic you must admit to having something against homosexuals otherwise why would you use "homo" as an apparent disparaging remark? Unless you were literally asking the GFY community if homosexuals are the only people who own Apple products.

So which one is it?

I think I will step out and enjoy the fresh air wafting off the beach.

Here we go again! Inside the Mac is all the same hardware as a PC now!
If you are running an Intel proc, you have the same exact hardware!
Man people are just too caught up with the outside of the machine to realize that inside an intel based machine is all the same parts!

I run Vista Ultimate 64bit, not once has it crashed, never had an issue with speed or performance ever!

This is just like Canon and Nikon. Man oh man oh man. Canon is ahead in the game. So what! It is what you prefer.
Mac is not better than PC, and PC is not better than Mac.

i have nothing against them, you sound like a drama queen, do you own an apple?

when you start your computer is it a rainbow background?

This takes me back to the days of Hollywood. They would fight over what machine was better, Media1000, AVID Machines, Macs, ect... They all got the job done!

You don't understand. The hardware is the same as the high end laptops. Mac uses the newest CPUs in their machines, and with their new upgrade that is about to come all iMac and MAC Pros will use i7. I heard they'll even make macbook pros with i7 inside too.

The point is the price which is nothing more than the same level other high end laptops.

you got it right. macs are soooo gay

yeah, for haters and whiners ;)

The whole Hollywood uses Macs!

We are talking about what the WILL do. We are talking about what they have on the market NOW!

On the apple site I just read that memory controller only allows 1066MHz
(The integrated memory controller, along with fast 1066MHz DDR3 ECC SDRAM)
This is the CURRENT model available now!

My PC has a full clock that allows up to 3600MHz memory controller same as Alienware.
However my memory is only 1333MHz, but that is still faster than 1066MHz.

Again I am not talking about what they WILL do tomorrow. It is what they make today!

Hollywood is full of a bunch tight as Jews! Stuck in the mindset of Mac, like red necks who think Chevy is better than Ford

Again I will stress, PC is not better than mac, nor is Mac better than PC.

Actually, dual Xeons will still outperform an i7 for a number of tasks - primarily heavy numbercrunching. Combined with the ECC/non-ECC difference, it should be obvious which tasks Mac Pros are most suited for.

There's a reason i7 and Xeon are marketed for different goals by Intel, you know :2 cents:

All the more reason to hate Apple. :2 cents:

OP likes cock in his ass. I have an Iphone, have the biggest dick on planet earth and get mucho snatch

You are wrong as most Mac heads are! My DDR3 Ram is 1333MHz ECC

The Xeon has only 1 die level of cache one level of L3! The i7 has four levels, two levels L2 and two levels L3 cache.
By having four levels of cahe, it increases your bandwidth. Like having four Ferrari's doing 250mph instead of just one.

A Xeon is primarly used for servers. Not rendering and multi tasking heavy applications

So when coming at me with specs and tasks, get ready. I know my shit!

I knew a mac head would come at me with ECC bullshit! After RD ram was discontinued, all RAM is now ECC, they just dont advertise it anymore.

Yes I have a Mac computer.

If you have nothing against homosexuals then why do you keep making references to them such as "homo card", a "pink cord" and "a rainbow background"? Are I and others supposed to be offended by your remarks? If so then you think being a homosexual is a negative/bad thing and that is why you continue to reference it. Do you understand the logic here?

You are the one that started the thread railing on about Apple users and how they are like homos not me, so clearly you are the drama queen.

Find me something as nice and easy to use as this: http://www.panic.com/coda/ for windows and you might have a point. Simple fact is each platform has their own benefits and drawbacks.

btw I own both Mac & Pc. I prefer to do somethings on the PC and some of the Mac, if I had to pick one over the other then it would likely be the Mac, because I can always run windows on it as well.

I see you must have the biggest cock, hence NetHorse.. lol

ok. a little on the " homo " subject. As god among men, it is not for me to judge.

http://www.intel.com/support/process.../CS-029913.htm

Does either the Intel® Core? i7 processor or the Intel® Core? i5 processor family support Error Correction Code (ECC) memory?

Neither family of desktop processors supports ECC memory. Typically ECC memory is used on servers and workstations rather than on desktop platforms. This is due to the price premium and extremely low likelihood of a data error occurring even on memory not utilizing ECC.

Idiot :2 cents:

Did not know that.. you got me on that. However my DDR3 is ECC, just not utilizing it i guess.

Thanks! I do learn something new everyday.

I have been on a Mac for 5 years. Before that i was on a pc for 14 years. I Knew how to build them and fix all of my friends PCs when they were fucked up.


The big difference i have noticed when i switched was that there were zero software conflict and zero problems. I have 2 Macs and i run the shit out of both of them.


I had one render HD video for 2 weeks strait and my mac book pro processes 5k photos a week every week.


One time i had a problem with my G5. My G5 strait blew up after 5 years of serious abuse with work. I dropped it off to the Mac store for repair after my warranty has been expired for 3 years. I got a phone call from Mac and they told me the cooling system blew up and this machine needs to be replaced. Then they said that what happened was not so-pose to happen so the replaced everything in it for free even after the warranty was way expired. WTF????



I was so blown away by their attention to my needs. I wrote off that Mac and was shopping for another to replace it when i got the call. I still have not replaced any of my 2 macs. Both work fine. I up graded my hard drive in my Mac Book Pro to a 500 gig and am happy with its performance. If both macs were stolen, i would be fine with that, because i know that i got my moneys worth in the work both put out.


So to debate whats better is a waste of time. I know what is better for me and for what i do. I have a lot of money riding on everything i do with processing content and meeting deadlines. My clients do not want to hear that my PC crashed. I would remember night mares with software conflicts with PCs and the time it took me to fix mine and my friends PCs. I never want to go back to that shit again.


Im guessing that there have been big improvements with Pcs in the last 5 years, but to only have one problem with 2 Macs in 5 years and for Mac to replace everything for free even when the warranty is way done, keeps me using Mac. Mac is my choice and i think that people whos job depends on their computer and know the difference would also agree. And im not gay or brain washed.

Since you responded so politely, I'll help you stop making a fool out of yourself.

You've stated in this thread that "Core i7" trounces "Nehalem".

What you apparently don't know is that "Core i7" is the branding of desktop processors using the Nehalem architecture. The branding of workstation/server processors with the Nehalem architecture, meanwhile, is simply Xeon "Nehalem".

Here's a nice little table where you should be able to find both your processor and the ones used in the Mac Pro:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_N..._nm_processors

so basically what you people are saying is you cant find any REAL difference between a mac and a PC but you have low brain capacity so you buy into media hype easier?

only own an ipod and iphone wouldnt buy anything else apple related

What is so wrong about homos? You are sad metaman. Every single thread and post you make is negative. I have never seen you pushing any product or showing in any way you are part of the industry. What are you doing here?

i am making mad money buying content from you and star69 MAD MONEY!

KANDAH FTW!

i am the most positive person i know, im never down, you just are a negative person yourself so you lack the ability to differ between hate and humour.

i am a bonifide faggot. i haven't used a pc since 1996. and i love my ipod touch. i sleep with it at night :glugglug

You see he seems to think that he is making some sort of impact here... but the reality is, the minute he stops posting, everyone will forget all about him, since he has nothing to begin with. Also, he's probably gay himself or got abused as a kid because he sure loves to speak like a homophobe all the time here.... it gets tiring watching all these threads about "do you [insert scenario here] and is it gay?"

But oh well.. sig spot. :2 cents:

my ipod is pink im just a sexy gurl.

"AND ALL THE GIRLS SAY IM PRETTY FLY FOR A WHITE GUY"

I love these sigwhores who follow me around LOLZ and to think they think they make enough impact for anyone to care what they say.

FACT:
i am better then you sigwhores
i am smarter then you sigwhores
and a couple years (being nice) from now you will be back in your "day job" and i will still be here just like i have almost have been since the beginning.

HATE ON HATERS!

not funny.

When I had dinner with some friends and family last week, everyone was checking their messages during dinner. It looked like a fucking iPhone convention. I'm the sole loser with the best phone at the table, the Droid Bionic.

The motto is Think Different, but it doesn't really apply anymore. Apple is a cult, and you're not cool if you don't have one of those silly fucking phones, and use those crappy white headphones.

ipad is the only product that actually solves something for me, rest is crap

Well said, OP. Even if I liked apple overpriced stuff I could not buy one because I would feel like fucking sheep with the same device as every second Joe on the street.

ever try comparing an ipad to the $400. acer? half the price and does so much more!

I won't speak for other Apple products, but the iPhone is still the best smartphone there is IMO.

Most available apps.

Highest resolution screen.

Most battery life by a HUGE margin.

Slimmest design.

Most secure OS and most secure available apps, (everything must pass quality control and there are rules on what an app can and can't do). On Android ANYONE can put ANYTHING out there.

Then there are the little things, scroll pages and it's 100% fluid, never with an ounce of hesitation. Can't say the same for Android powered phones.

Go to select text for cut and paste, it goes to the exact sentence you point at and the selection rolls across each letter. Do it on Android and it selects a whole of text and goes words or even paragraphs at a time, (frustrating as fuck).

Responsiveness of the touchscreen is still unsurpassed, in-fact, I'd say it's almost TOO responsive. Touch something on accident with a graze and it's opening up immediately.

Things I hate about the iPhone.

iTunes, (so annoying having to use that turd software to sync my phone).

Small screen, come on Apple everyone else has a 4.0inch+ screen. Get with the program.

No customization, while the OS is insanely intuitive as is, I'm getting bored of looking at it.

When the Google Nexus Prime is announced I will consider jumping ship if Android 4.0 is more refined than it's clunky predecessors.
