MAC was the graphical geek thing for many years
and other then that, it was pretty much useless

- no games
- not much software available
- hardware monopoly
- expensive
- poor network capabilities and compatibilities out of the box

sure it was superior then Wintel
just like a Tiger tank was superior to a Sherman

but put 4 Shermans against the Tiger, and that was it for the Tiger
Superiority of one doesn't mean jack when mass volume kicks in

Ipods aren't that good either, they just look more decent then 99% of the competition
- cannot delete tunes on the ipod
- they get stuck
- cannot really do nothing practical with playlists once you disconnect the bloody thing from itunes
- without itunes, you loose functionalitt

so yeah, superior, in looks
it's like a hot blonde bimbo, everybody wants one
and a lot of people just get tired of her **** when they finally get one

all this crap about MAc's being better
My pc doesn't reboot unless there's a power failure, it's running XP pro
it runs like a charm, does everything i want from it, including Adobe Photoshop high res multilayer editing.. i never get any virusses, never get any kind of problems with antyhing really, so what can a MAC do, that i can't do on my Wintel?? aside from maybe looking like it's designed to look good ( as if i care what my puter looks like, it's tucked away under my desk, and mt screen looks just as design as any tft Mac screen would)
