You could get a Mac dual 1.25 gHz system for $5000.
Yep. ... Sure could. ...
And I could also beat myself in the head with a ball-pean hammer!!! Ferchrissakes people. GET OVER IT!!! MACS BLOW!! They aren't fast at ANYTHING!!! There is not a single application (assuming it's ported for both PC and Mac which almost every program that has a Mac port is) that runs faster on a Mac than on a decent PC. Lemme see.... 2 1.25GHz procs or 1 3.06GHz HYPERTHREADED PROCESSOR!!!
Sorry for the caps and what not. I can't freaking stand Macs. "I really like OS X though." I DON'T CARE! Why in the hell would I
pay more for a system whose OS was, admittedly, better when it would run
all of my programs slower? Good god, I'm actually beating my head against my desk at the same time I'm typing this. Somebody asks what you'd do with an unlimited amount of money, and the first thing you thought of was a Mac. This girl at work today was telling me about how she sold her Mac, which had dual 500MHz processors, a GF4 Ti4600 graphics card and 768MB of RAM so she could buy a system with dual 1.25GHz procs, a GF4 Ti4600 and 1GB of RAM. The whole tie I sat there and thought, "You know what you could upgrade your PC to with just the money you sold your old Mac for? Hell, you could buy a top-of-the-line PC that runs twice as fast as that Mac for half the price and still have enough left over to buy leather furniture and a good TV with. That's ridiculous.
I hope and pray for the day that there are no more Macs left.
Sorry for the tirade. I'm starting to lose it.
