How is a Mac user friendly when you need to press three buttons for a print screen (screen shot).
Do most of you guys know how to use print screen on a mac? I think it is mind boggling compared to the PC. On Windows, I just need to press the Print Scr button to get a screen shot.

Siggy goes here!

You see the difference between opinions and facts?
The only reason it costs more is because people put alot more effort in it and it's better.

Then why does Apple refuse to allow people to release a version so people can install Mac OS on non-Apple pcs and then sue everyone who succeeds in this act? I think it's because they put a lot more effort into restricting people so they can sell Apple branded hardware at much higher prices than the exact same part made by same manufacturer but I want your opinion on this.

Hi I'm a Mac and you can install Windows onto me if you'd like to play computer games.

Blew my mind. It's a mindfuck in more than one way, too. PC's and Mac's would never hold hands! It is forbidden for some stupid reason, godamn computer snobs and their racist preferences in software.

Drop me a PM to talk about junk, serious or silly.

Blah, Macs can do anything that windows can. Play PC games, gets viruses, force you to cough up a few more dollars, have multiple disk drives, and... I think I'm forgetting something.

Contrary to belief, Macs are not better quality. Apple also has been changing suppliers to try to "lower the price" and thus lowering quality. Even with the lower prices, Macs still cost more, they spend a higher percent of budget trying to make it look pretty, and marketing.

List of a few problems:
Overheating Macbooks
OS X- not responding to keyboard

Apple statistics are misleading since Mac users with problem machines are more likely to go out and buy a new computer than PC users.
Apple is lowering prices which means you can expect lower quality than in the past. Apple had switched the manufacturers producing parts. OS X also has problems slowing down.

Pretty good.

There is no such thing as someone who doesn't like the PS3, there is only poor people who can't afford one. PS3 owners pity you and hope you can one day get out of poverty.

Doesn't the fact you expect "lol quality thread on BBS" replies kind of tell you what to expect from the BBS?

Fix'd!

Macs suck, people only love them because of their 'SHINY SCREEN' and boast about how macs 'CAN'T GET VIRUSES!!!!'

You only get viruses if you fuck around on your PC like an idiot.

The thing is with macs, it never feels like I'm in control of it. Anyone else have this?

Actually Mac doesn't crash like PC's ad that means when an application doesn't respond, you don't have to shut it down. Also mac never gets viruses and so that makes mac better than all you shitty PCs.

If Macs don't have any problems then why are there MacFixIt forums?
