So I am sitting in the Mac lab here at work and this guy decides to help out a user becuase he thinks he is computer smart. Well here is what he said: "Mac OS 9.2 is just like WinXP." Then he continued on saying that macs are the same thing as PCs with WinXP.

What the hell is this guy smoking?

minendo, each one of us must accept the fact that there are some very, very, VERY stupid people in the world.

maybe he was trying to show the person that if they know how to use XP then the Mac OS won't be too different.

Not everyone is a computer nerd like us

Regardless of his knowledge of computers, he was talking to a girl, while you, with your superior PC skills, are posting on an internet messageboard about a guy who was talking to a girl ;)
