Man, this AI article was painful. WAY too much effort to demonize MS. I haven't used Win7 a lot yet... not enough to come to a completely educated opinion, but I will say so far it sucks less than Vista. I haven't run all my apps on it yet, but a…

Congrats on the switch. I just found out that Fios will be available in my area at the end of the year, or early next year. I can hardly wait!

Delicious. Too bad it's only the theatrical release version. \

4th flamebait article in 2 weeks. AI must need the ad revenue.

AI doesn't post a story every time Apple has a new ad out. Why are they doing it, 3 times now, for MS ads? They're flamebaiting for traffic. Seriously, AI, grow up. Every one of these articles/threads are going to be identical... rinse-and-repeat…

Are these articles even necessary? It's like trolling for the flamebait traffic.

Yep, in general they are speeding up more slowly. Speed increases are still only being bumped up a couple of hundred MHz per release. Back when CPUs were around 1 GHz (or less), a 100-300 MHz increase was considerable. Nowadays with multiple cores a…

Quote: Yes it has. Remember that in the first few years of Job's return, Mac sales were in the doldrums. It's quite likely that the amount of active Mac users didn't really change that much... while the amount of PC users took off. It's only in the…

Quote: Why has the Mac been growing faster with it's higher "price perception"? It's not because there isn't a higher price perception. There obviously is a higher cost perception. Whether one chooses to believe it or not is another question. B…

Apparently a lot of people failed to see the sarcasm in the "I guess I'm not cool enough to be a Mac person" line. In any event, I don't have the time to run through 6 pages right now, but I do think that the Lauren ad does make one good point...…

It's Mac! Apple's platform is perfect and impenetrable! Any alternate theory to this iron-clad truth just doesn't compute. This guy is a liar! I know better than he does, because I'm a Mac user! etc, etc. Quote: Originally Posted by archer75 …
