Plenty of mac ads bashing the PC platform, I'm not full of my self because i'm not trying to "convert you" like your trying to me. Yes people who have used a pc will have experience, just like have sex for the first time. You have some experience after that but not very much, I dont know where you were getting with this. You said macs dont have viruses and they have virus scanners only to detect viruses when they are being used as a "carrier" for pc virues. I smell an enron executive LOL, trying to cover his tracks!

...bashing my platform, then I will bash yours. I dont like to, but if I have to, I will.
WTF is wrong with you, its like your defending you family. I have a feeling your at least 13<, and if you haven't taken algebra/pre algebra like I have calculated, < The mouth point one way means Greater than and the back/arrow means smaller than. So in simplified terms your LESS than 13.

Ok kids thats our math lesson today, have a nice day! :p

Here is my basic windows setup: Internet explorer 6.0 SP1, Google toolbar, properly configured I.E, and All the latest Windows Updates. All I need to get on the internet (Of course others but thats not the point). Eventually (hopefull pretty soon) I plan on setting up a real hardware firewall between my internet connection and router (I dont depend on those crappy router firewalls). All is smooth sailing for me! :)


hahahha...Mac users get their way eh? The majority of PC users wouldn't fit with a Mac just like the majority of people can't draw. Mac users are used to being in an exclusive club. I'm not so sure what they want is what you think they want. They think of themselves as special, not common. Kinda one of the things I don't like about the majority of them. I have a Mac, but don't consider myself a "Mac User".

Also, don't spend too much on your firewall. You can have a firewall that just as effective if you use an old PC, get two network cards, and run Linux/BSD. I like ipfilter myself.

And Virii on a Mac is useless. Yes, you can send someone a malicious program, but its up to the user to run it. Mail doesnt do whatever the message tells it, it only does what the user tells it to do. Also, even if it did run if would be local to the user to who received the message. None of the corrupted system files and replacing .doc with .porn. A user would have to authenticate the action, so its no different than the user intentionally doing it him/herself. In Windows, often you have no choice, just like with IE.

Where in the hell did you get this. I am not telling you to convert or anything. You are continuing to make stuff up. If I am trying to make you convert, quote me on this. You say I dont have much experience. Care to back that up? Obviously, you cant prove this.

You said macs dont have viruses and they have virus scanners only to detect viruses when they are being used as a "carrier" for pc virues

Umm. ok. That is the main reason for Anti Virus for Mac.

WTF is wrong with me? WTF is wrong with you? You are doing the same thing arent you? I bash your platform, and you bash mine.

By the way, nice immature jokes. I happend to have grown up a long time ago. And even if I was 13, I am still acting more mature than you are.

Yes infact that was exactally what I was thinking of doing. I have about 8 computer lying around ranging from Pentium to K6-2 (not much but a lot of pentiums) was also thinking of getting an old lappy and use that as a firewall because I want to conserve on electricity. I maybe environmentally conscious but not a hippie.
