Hey mac users

[MotionMan]

Cut and paste on both a mac and a pc work essentially the same.

The facebook user is just an idiot that probably can't find the 'any' key either.

Bingo.

The question about having a Mac was actually pretty useless since the solution was essentially the same for a PC, too.

fuck apple for making unintuitive shit. When I want to shortcut I want to do it with my kb not some obscene mouse moving around.... window key, and control key FTW

In OSX it's cmd+c to copy, and cmd+v to paste.

Or right click copy, right click paste. Not unintuitive at all.

This thread bores me.

You sir fail, as you obviously know nothing about operating systems outside your own little world

Is it a woman? Or a senior? Or a female-senior?

Seems like option C.

I am not talking about myself.. How does an average person know how to right click.. when there is no freaking button to click?

 

[Krazy4Real]

silly mac users.

they can RTFM and realize you can 2 finger click.

FUCK.



you fucking windows users need to get out of this left click right click mindset and realize that mac users fucking PWN YOU with 2/3/4 finger swipe + 1/2 finger click.

 

[busydude]

they can RTFM and realize you can 2 finger click. FUCK.

Its not a default option.. you need to change settings for that. Again, how does an average user know how to change the settings?

Also, you fail at reading my sig.

If everyone can RTFM.. 90% of the issues do not even exist.

I assume you mean on the laptop referenced in the OP? In that case, you are correct, sir.

The worst part; Apple forces you to buy their shi,... oh, wait - never mind.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to find a bunch of .dll files my work Windows machine is telling me are missing and/or corrupt.

Haven't had that happen in years, possibly even a decade. So you're doing it wrong, especially if it's happening at your office.

There's a reason real offices usually don't use Macs.

Because most PC-trained IT guys do not know how to support Macs?

LOL, that argument is even worse than the "Mac users can't right click" one

MotionMan

Do you really believe training is the reason? Honestly?

It's because these days Macs are no better than Windows machines, and when supplying an office with workstations why in the world would a company want to pay the Apple Tax and get the exact same machine for double the cost or more?

Yup - my company of 60,000 employees is doing something wrong. I totally agree with you; I was on help desk wait for about an hour this morning.

I am sure it would be much much worse if the entire company used OSX instead of Windows; what with the "X" button for most programs being on the left instead of the right.

this

sub-$500 dells and HP's > $1k iMacs



That said I think a fleet of Mac Mini's + 20" WS monitors would be cool and fairly cost effective.

So someone in IT made a mistake. Are you telling me that mistakes are 100% impossible on a Mac?

And what kind of huge company would have a screw up like that? And then make each individual user call the help desk on their own? Pretty poorly run company you've got there. How'd they get to 60,000 employees?

I'm sure it must be confusing to some, but what I did when I got my first mac was I used my middle finger, while my middle finger was on the right hand side of the mouse, then pressed until I heard a quiet "click sound" which I also felt through my finger. Perhaps others could follow in my footsteps.

People keep giving them money to invest; greedy people's judgments are always clouded.

I have never run into a .dll file "issue" on my home Win machines. But, I was adding anecdotal stupidity to anecdotal stupidity.

Bottom line; it's not that bad ladies, you can buy whatever personal computer you want - so, stop waving your dick in people's faces.
