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

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

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.

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?

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

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.. :p)

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.

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.
