If you were forced to use an Apple would you use it? *Poll*

[Trader05]

If for some odd reason if you had no choice and you had to use an Apple computer or no computer at all, what you you do? Personally i can't stand using mac os, so i'd probably use my cell phone for internet. Bootcamp can't be used either as a way out! lol

 

[BobDaMenkey]

Yes, I'd use it. I've done it before when the only computers open were iMac's of poop (700mhz, whaaat?) in my college computer labs.

 

[nageov3t]

sure, why not.

the only reason I've never used a mac before is the price and lack of customization.

Of course I'd use it, what's the big deal? Are people that fanboyish to (I presume) Linux?

 

[broon]

Sure. Isn't that like asking if you were forced to drive a pinto or walk, would you drive the pinto?

 

[theknight571]

Yeah..I'd use it.

It's been a long time since I used a Mac, though.

I'd probably have one now, in addition to my Intel/Windows boxes if they were less expeinsive. (or I had more money.. )

Macs are for little children.

It's different, because Macs aren't known to explode in flames killing their users. At least I don't think they are...

No, that's Dell. *hugs his Dell, and bursts into flames*

I dont find Apples as obnoxious as they used to be. I would actually love it if they ever released Mac OSX for non-apple users.

 

[mordantmonkey]

i've actually considered getting a macbook... i know, it's terrible. But they look so purdy, and there's some nice mac only music software out there.

Well you dont have to use a computer but a car is a necessity in some areas...if my area had good public transportation i'd use it instead of driving a pinto.

 

[ITJunkie]

yes, I would. Especially one of the new intel versions.
