Exchange your Ferrari liking for a Mac too ;)




I cant believe it, not more then 4 days after I bought the MBP they come out with the next version. At first I thought about exchanging it just cause Im obsessed with performance. But really the only thing that appeals to me was the upgraded graphics card, the larger HD really means nothing cause its the same rpm and Im upgrading to a 10-15k anyway (screw SSD, too expensive and I want something that spins really really fast), and the upgraded CPU is only very slightly faster. Would you exchange it?


i know i am spewen aswell 4 weeks after i get mine they update it and its even abit cheaper.

Why? so I could end up like you? HA HA HA!


be an improvement ;)

This Mac vs PC - thing is a comedy of errors and a lot of flat out lies really pushed by alot of Mac elitists. Truth is that macs just don’t hold a candle in many ways. # macs are faster than pc's hehe maybe your grandmas PC kid but I'll eat you alive ----# 2 Mac’s are more user friendly LOLOL>OLOLOLOLOLO try telling that to first time users of a mac __as someone who supports both Mac users and PC users let me tell you that macs go against the grain for most folks -just a fact --# 3 just no comparison when it comes to software availability and performance.

I happen to own a few Mac machines a macbook pro --- and a mac pro - and a g5(I’m selling the Mac pro if any Mac lovers are into it ) The macbook is just flat out poop compared to my much older gateway with dual core Intel p4 extreme 3.4 processor and 2 g's of ram and my new HDX moster 20 inch just kills the macbook ---I have to have at least one of these apple machines though for work (if you want to use ruby on rails apple kicks a little bottom in that niche). I run dual installs on my two newer macs using vista that in fact does run well on the apple but the whole runs better thing is pretty dang funny. I love my Cinema D display units and think that Apple is the king of monitors.

My pc's and I will take all comers though wanna test your logic - he is some food for thought my dual quad core 3.4 processors and 4 g's of ram running vista ultimate and I are ready to convert you back to the TRUE COMPUTER WORLD (I built this machine myself for 1100) and when something breaks if it ever does I will not have to take it or ship it somewhere to be fixed --try getting apple to even sell you a power supply to fix your machine yourself- they told us they just don’t do that-lol

Now go ahead and tell me well all these people aren’t wrong who say Mac’s are better how can I say it’s just a fad and predict that like the last big Mac fad in the early 90’s you can count on it passing. My answer is did you also vote for G. Bush and how many of your friends were wrong about that two ---lol

The truth is OS X and Windows are both equal. OS X is better in many ways, and Windows IS better in many ways. I couldn't choose one over the other. Thats why I run both on my new 17" Macbook Pro and wouldn't have it any other way. The 20" HDX was a joke compared to this laptop. Everything about the MBP is better then the HDX.

So far as a new user to mac I have found OS X to be much more user friendly to Windows. You are obviously a PC fanboy and are not capable of making rational decision and therefore speaking on public forums :lol:

HEHE - YES YOUR RIGHT MY PC's HAVE MADE A FAN OUT OF ME - SOMETHING BEING FORCED TO USE CRAPPLES FOR 12 YEARS HAS NEVER EVEN COME CLOSE TO DOING THEY JUST SUCK>>>>>>>>>>but then I shouldn’t talk in public forums as my little brain most likely don’t hold a candle to your vast intellect I'm sure. Hey you’re a race fan right lets run em --- or are you scared. Bench marks are a bitch - my HDX was a bit slow I'll grant you that till I blew everything off and did the a clean install - now I will be happy to run a bench mark next to you running 3d studio max or any other intense program if you feel like getting clowned.....

Nothing new to me I do it all day long as in my profession I'm forced to use both and do side by side everyday ---Mac’s ARE FOR SHEEP WHO JUST DON’T DO THEIR OWN RESEARCH AND BELIEVE HYPE FROM GUYS LIKE YOU........!

Im scared that I will turn more geek if I enter into a bench mark competition. Really I don't see the point, I dont need to prove anything. I just owned the HDX for a month and returned it, it sux.

you cant move a 20 inch laptpo oabout easily at all, might as well get a desktop


Yeah, the HDX was a tank, whats worse is they made it slippery.


its not that good either
