1) he called him a moron
 2) no, he's still a moron, we get what he was trying to say. Your "buddy" (i'm having difficulty believing you have the ability to maintain any sort of social relationship with anything or anyone. even if it were possible, they're friends with you which should speak to their own intelligence as well) is just as dumb as you. -------------------- WAIT.

Apple was knocked away from Intel by Microsoft... They specifically did not want to be categorized with anything that had to do with them.
And you think Microsoft will be around? Doubtful. -------------------- "There is a level of cowardice lower than that of the conformist: that of the fashionable non-conformist." |

Whether you like them or not, they're making some serious cash. And what's wrong with selling macs that run windows with intel processors? if anything, they're conforming to what has been established as a more standard, more reliable, more programmable architecture. They're allowing people to use their machines for windows as well. It's not like you can get a mac without paying for OSX already on it. What do they care if you run windows off of it? you've already bought it and you've already paid for the OS as well. If anything, this will attract MORE customers. I already stated that my next machine will be an apple, even if I don't use OSX on it. They still get their money, and microsoft still gets theirs (assuming i'm using a legit copy of windows). Funny thing, people were predicting that apple had 5 years left back in 93, 94, 95, 96, 97, 98, 99, 00, 01... when did the ipod come out? -------------------- WAIT. I'm not finished.

I assume you have an ipod then, and I assume you drive a honda civic or a toyota camry. You obviously own a nintendo DS and you smoke marlboro or camel cigarettes. edit: i almost forgot, you only drink coke, never pepsi or dr. pepper, you only eat at mcdonalds, nowhere else, and all your gas comes from exxon/mobil, not any of the other refineries.

Nevermind the fact that personal choice plays a large part in deciding what platform you want, and as evidenced in the IE vs Firefox thread, you have your mouth firmly planted around microsoft's giant throbbing cock, so yeah, one could see where you might shy away from Macs, even though they can now do literally everything a PC can (in the same operating system, no less) -------------------- WAIT.

I still don't see how this is so revolutionary... the apple computer now has PC innards, and their OS now runs on the x86 architecture. big freakin deal.

yeah nevermind it gives apple a huge step up in attracting customers, nevermind that the only reason not to buy a mac now is price, or anything logical about that.
you got ownd a week ago, don't start this shit up again or i'm locking the damn topic. -------------------- WAIT. I'm not finished.

I'll do something better than buy a mac that dual boots, I'll just install OSX on another drive I have on here. Now I don't have to buy an expensive mac that has no reason to be expensive anymore becuase it runs an intel chip, and I can get an operating system that looks almost as good as enlightenment.

Now I don't have to buy an expensive mac that has no reason to be expensive anymore becuase it runs an intel chip, and I can get an operating system that looks almost as good as enlightenment. yeah, except for the part where OSXx86 is much much MUCH more buggy when not running on the actual mac hardware (trust me, I have a laptop running it right now, and look at the installation wikis, it's a PAIN IN THE ASS to get to install correctly most of the time), not to mention it runs slower on non-mac hardware. Furthermore, OSX 10.5 will be including a major security update to essentially prevent it from running on non-macs (prolly using that intel drm codey thingie that i totally am spacing on at the moment). Will that be cracked? probably eventually, but how much of the OS will you have to gut to use it? 10.4.3/10.4.4 will probably be the last versions of OSX that you can run on non-mac hardware. -------------------- WAIT. I'm not finished.
