Guest pod Posted August 7 Report Share Posted August 7 You might piss off the Luddites on the forum if you suggest that. Once they can create a bioware compatible system-on-a-chip with associated retinal display, I'm there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brain and costs $10,000 and over here we have a M.B.A Brain for $15,000 and over here we have a Mac User's Brain for $50,000..." One of the Doctors stopped him and asked, "Why is the Mac User's Brain so expensive?"

One night a man walked in and talked to him briefly and the bartender said, "Wow! You must have an IQ of about 140! You should meet this guy over here." So they talked for a while about nuclear physics and existential philosophy and had a great time. A second man walked in and soon the bartender has guessed about a 90 IQ for him. So he sat him down in front of the big-screen TV and he watched football with the other guys and had a great time. Then a third man stumbled in and talked to the bartender for a while. The bartender said to himself, "Jeez! I think this guy's IQ must be about 29!"

Actually they don't do that anymore except in one circumstance: where you buy a Mac after the OS is released, but it's not preinstalled on your system.In any event, we've been hearing Nick talk about getting a Mac for 3 years, but that he's waiting for this and waiting for that. Nick, this technology gets obsolete very fast. Of course there's going to be something better coming up. There always is, except in the case of Microsoft. After Leopard comes out, are you going to say "hey, they just talked about Cougar coming out in 2009, I'll wait till that drops!" Every day you put this off you are denying yourself the enjoyment of a hassle-free computer. Suck it up and pay the extra $129 when Leopard arrives.

V. Barbarino Posted August 8 Report Share Posted August 8 naw fudge that, it makes sense to wait, I'd say there is a very good chance by oct in the holiday season I can get the new OS and a better computer cheaper by then. Then I will buy it. Plus right now, I'm buying a 61inch HD TV.. I can afford both, but I rather get one then the other, my 7 year old dell is holding up well, causes me zero issues, except FireFox and itunes don't play well together depending on the day of the week.

I was just helping out all the PC lovers. I wasnt convinced it was some great purveyor of comedy writing this material either.

Guest pod Posted August 8 Report Share Posted August 8 I still feel that each system has it's place. For better or for worse, the Windows platform is ensconced in the business and the embedded world. Even cash registers and ATMs run XP embedded these days. For home use, and media production use, go Mac. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
