Yea i would love to see an Etch a sketch play music, videos, and make its own pictures. Dont EVER compare the Mac to a etch a sketch. Let me guess you are a PC gamer? People only like PCs for one thing: GAMES!!! So for that reason PC users think Macs suck cause they dont have all PC games. So other than games what do you Windows, Linux, and other PC lovers think the Mac cant that your computer can?

Wow. A little uptight, are we? See, I thought Mac users had a sense of humor, as I got that joke from a Mac user...guess you aren't one of them, eh?
Not that it matters, but I am not a "gamer". If I play for an hour on any one PC game in a week, that's a lot.
Seems like you have declared yourself the champion defended of the Mac. Good luck with that!

The Mac guy in the Apple commercials is hot.
But in all seriousness, I use a PC simply because I've never used a Mac and was reluctant to spend the money on an unknown entity when I bought my computer. I would consider a Mac in the future, especially since the introduction of intel(?) dual-core ones.
I don't understand why people get so caught up in proving one is better/worse than the other. Does it really matter?

actually, etch-a-sketches do draw pictures, that is the whole point, but anyway, PC all the way.
i've only used a mac at school, but i hate it. the worst thing about it that its mouse sucks. you can't move it properly and whats with the one button, and yes i know that there are 2 buttons now(key word, now).
Simple to use, PCs are plenty(not a real word but i can't think of one right now) simple to use. Macs are completely confusing.
My PC has never ever gotten a virus so I don't really care about that. If it did, it hasn't affected it functionally.
Also http://www.ctrlaltdel-online.com/comic.php?d=20060513 yep it says it all.
It probably doesn't matter, but people like proving things. Nothing wrong with that, besides aren't forums all about discussing things all things, whether they matter or not. If you care, repond, if you don't, well don't. You probably have an opinion, or want to know other people's or you wouldn't be reading this.

I'm a huge fan of the TI-86 by Texas Instruments.

Yea i definitely declared myself defender of the MAC. And you didnt answer a single one of my questions. So that really helps me understand how you think of your PC.

Terribly sorry to have left you hanging there, oh Mac Defender. I do believe I did answer one of the questions.

That's the one I answered.
I'm going to guess this is the one I did not answer...

Let's see....the last time I used a Mac was waaay back in the early 90's. Have not touched one since then; so I have no idea what they are capable of. Why don't you share your wisdom with the rest of the class and tell us why they are so much better? I am really curious.

You know I & other students at college opened up a Mac as part of the clase yesterday & got told how a Mac worked.Macs have really fast processors its just by the time the processor has done all its stuff it ends up being the same speed as a PC & the Macs battery is a lot bigger in size than a PCs & that you can now put Window on a Mac becuase new Macs use an Intel processor & that all the hardware in a Mac is in the display monitor(I already knew that).

Break some Winblow$
Take a bite out of Apple.
Use Linux.
One OS to rule them all.
One OS to find them.
One OS to bring them all,
And with the Blue Screen bind them.
In the the land of Redmond,
Where the Windows lie.
I don't push my home system, and lead a rather dull computing life. I go home, I sit at my Mac, I put a disc in the side, it gets ripped & encoded to MP3, added to my library, and rotated into the random tracks. I surf a while, maybe write a bit, watch something on youtube, email... All of which is handled flawlessly, and much faster than my 7 year old AMD Athlon.
All of my video games are for my XBOX 360 (I rather like the idea of people thinking of Microsoft as The game company.)
At work, it's an HP PC running Windows, because that's what the company gave me.

Years ago. The PowerPC processors have been behind the x86 for some time (which is why Apple moved to Intel x86's in the first place). Now they're no faster, because they are IBM PCs.
